Supermicro Ultra Servers with NVMe

NVMe Intel Drive

What is NVMe?

NVMe is an interface specification developed for PCIe-based SSDs by a consortium of 13 members including Intel, Samsung and others. It was designed to be future-proof and to penetrate both client and enterprise markets, without inheriting any hard drive features.

Harness the speed of NVMe drives with true hot-swap capability

Supermicro is the first to market with true hot-swap support for NVMe SSD drives. This feature allows easy addition of storage capacity through the addition of SSDs, the replacement of existing SSDs with higher capacity units, or replacement of failed drives, while the server system is in operation. Additionally, the hot-swap feature protects against surprise removals, random device failures, or operator errors. Software hardening from Supermicro on its NVMe server product line provides an excellent protection against these all too-common data center issues.

NVMe drives offer many advantages:

  • Large throughput gains (6x) over SAS or SATA
  • Substantial latency improvements (7x)
  • Shared common backplane improves flexibility of drive choice
  • 2.5" U.2 (SFF-8639) form factor for improved serviceability vs. PCI-E Flash cards (hot-swap)
  • Improved power efficiency
