The World's Largest SSD Arrives With 122.88TB of Storage
How-To Geek, Friday, May 23rd, 2025
At 122.88TB, the Solidigm D5-P5336 is the world's largest SSD. It's intended for datacenters, of course, and the $12,399 price tag is probably beyond your budget anyway, but it's an impressive piece of hardware that serves a compelling purpose.
Announced late last year, the D5-P5336 utilizes a PCIe 4.0 interface (rather than PCIe 5.0) and features a U.2 form factor and, though an E1.L version is slated for later this year. It's comprised of 192L QLC NAND, which isn't too surprising given the extreme capacity, though it features an unusually high endurance rating. Solidigm claims that the drive can survive 134.3 PBW (that's petabytes written) over five years. This rating is backed by a five-year real-world test where Solidigm ran 32KB random writes continuously at full load.
