Intel Optane SSD DC P4801X Series 100GB PCIe NVMe 3.0 x4 M.2 22110 3D XPoint unidade de estado sólido encriptada

In high-frequency trading platforms and real-time analytics clusters, every microsecond of storage latency directly impacts revenue and insight velocity. The Intel Optane SSD DC P4801X Series 100GB drive steps into these environments with a 3D XPoint memory architecture that delivers read and write latencies under 10µs, paired with up to 550,000 random read IOPS. Its M.2 22110 form factor and PCIe NVMe 3.0 x4 interface make it a drop-in accelerator for caching, logging, and metadata workloads where consistent performance under mixed read/write pressure is non-negotiable.

Why choose it

Unlike NAND-based SSDs that suffer latency spikes under sustained write loads, Optane media maintains near-constant response times even at high queue depths. This drive is engineered for write-intensive caching and journaling, where its 30 drive writes per day endurance ensures a five-year lifespan without performance degradation. End-to-end data protection and Power Loss Imminent (PLI) technology guard against silent data corruption and power failures, while AES 256-bit encryption secures data at rest. The M.2 22110 form factor allows dense deployment in 1U servers and edge appliances, maximizing IOPS per rack unit.

Ideal use cases

• Database acceleration: Use as a write-ahead log or cache tier for MySQL, PostgreSQL, or MongoDB to reduce commit latency.
• Virtualization: Host vSAN cache or Ceph journal devices to boost VM performance and consistency.
• AI/ML pipelines: Accelerate feature storage and checkpointing in distributed training frameworks.
• Content delivery: Serve as a hot tier for frequently accessed objects in edge CDN nodes.
• Financial services: Support tick-by-tick market data processing and risk calculations with deterministic low latency.

Good to know

The drive requires an M.2 22110 slot with PCIe Gen3 x4 connectivity and adequate airflow for sustained operation within its 0–70°C temperature range. It is compatible with Intel VROC and standard NVMe drivers across major operating systems. For mixed-workload environments, pairing this Optane drive with higher-capacity NAND SSDs creates a balanced storage architecture that optimizes both cost and performance. The 100GB capacity is ideal for targeted acceleration rather than bulk storage.
