When referring to drive capacity, one gigabyte, or GB, equals one billion bytes and one terabyte, or TB, equals one trillion bytes. Your computer’s operating system may use a different standard of measurement and report

a lower capacity. In addition, some of the listed capacity is used for formatting and other functions, and thus will not be available for data storage. Actual quantities will vary based on various factors, including file size, file

format, features and application software. Actual data rates may vary depending on operating environment and other factors. The export or re-export of hardware or software containing encryption may be regulated by

1. Introduction

This manual describes the Seagate® Nytro® 5050 NVM Express (NVMe) SSD series.

The NVMe interface meets next-generation computing demands for performance, scalability, flexibility, and

high-density storage requirements. Nytro 5050 NVMe SSDs are random access storage devices that support the NVMe

Protocol.

The Self- Encrypting Drive Manual, describes the interface, general operation, and security features available on

Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) models. See Section 5. Reference Documents.

Unless otherwise stated, the information here applies to all security versions (Standard, SED, and FIPS-certified).

Product data in this manual refers only to the model numbers listed in this manual.

The data in this manual may predict future generation specifications or requirements. If you are designing a system

using one of the models listed or future generation products and you need further assistance, please contact the Field

Applications Engineer (FAE) or our global support services group.

NOTE Never disassemble or try to service items in the enclosure. Opening the

enclosure voids the drive warranty.

format time. Supported block sizes are 512, 520, 4096, 4104, and 4160. Users who have the necessary equipment can

modify the data block size before issuing a format command. These users can obtain different formatted capacities

from those listed.

7. Performance

This section provides detailed information on performance-related features of Nytro 5050 SSDs.

7.1 Internal drive characteristics

7.2 Performance characteristics

7.2.1 Response time

Response times are measured with nominal power at 25°C ambient temperature. Normal values in the table below

are:

Page-to-page response time is an average of all possible page-to-page accesses for a sequentially preconditioned

drive.

Average response time is a true statistical random average of at least 5000 measurements of accesses between

programmable pages on a randomly preconditioned drive.

These drives provide the highest possible performance under typical conditions. However, due to the nature of Flash

memory technologies many factors can result in values other than those stated here.

Flash Memory Type eTLC 3D NAND

Emulated LBA Size 512B, 520B, 4096B, 4104B, or 4160B

Native Programmable Page Size 16KB

Map Unit Size 4096B

Table 8 Nytro 5050 Performance (continued)

Seagate Nytro 5050 NVMe SSD Product Manual, Rev C 19

www.seagate.com

Flash technology can produce results that differ from Seagate testing. Bandwidth limitations in the host adapter,

operating system, driver limitations, and other factors can cause discrepancies. When evaluating performance of SSD

devices, it is recommended to measure performance of the device in a way that resembles the targeted application

using real world data and workloads. Test time should also be large enough to make sure sustainable metrics and

measures are obtained.

8. Reliability specifications

These reliability specifications assume correct host and drive operational interface, including all interface timings,

power supply voltages, environmental requirements, and drive mounting constraints.

8.1 Read error rates

NOTE Error rate specified with automatic retries and data correction with ECC

enabled and all flaws reallocated.

Table 9 Read Error Rates

Error Rates Notes

Unrecovered Data Less than 1 LBA in 1017 bits transferred

Miscorrected Data Less than 1 LBA in 1021 bits transferred

Interface error rate Less than 1 error in 1012 bits transferred

Mean Time Between Failure

(MTBF) 2.5M hours

Annualized Failure Rate (AFR) 0.35%

Preventive maintenance None required

Typical Data Retention with Power

removed (at 40C up to 90% of write

endurance)

3 months

As NAND Flash devices age with use, the capability of

the media to retain a programmed value begins to

deteriorate. This deterioration is affected by the

number of times a particular memory cell is

programmed and subsequently erased. When a

device is new, it has a powered off data retention

capability of up to several years. With use the

retention capability of the device is reduced.

Temperature also has an effect on how long a Flash

component can retain its programmed value with

power removed. At high temperature the retention

capabilities of the device are reduced. Data retention

is not an issue with power applied to the SSD. The

SSD drive contains firmware and hardware features

that can monitor and refresh memory cells when

power is applied.

Endurance Rating Method 2: TBW (per JEDEC JESD218)

Endurance rating is how much host data you can

write to the drive at a specified workload and

operating and storage temperature for the specified

drive life. For more information on the specific

workload to achieve this level of endurance, see

JEDEC Specification JESD218. TBW is defined as

1x10^12 Bytes.

Limited Warranty with Media Usage provides

coverage for the warranty period or until the SSD

Percentage Used field in the SMART Health Log

reaches 100 whichever comes first.
