Solidigm 1.92TB SSD PCIe 5.0 x4 NVMe U.2
The 1.92TB U.2 PCIe 5.0 x4 NVMe interface delivers high sequential throughput for enterprise workloads, backed by TLC NAND and a 5-year warranty. Its 2.5-inch form factor and Hynix V7 memory make it a straightforward drop-in for server bays, though it lacks Opal encryption. Best for workstation users needing fast internal storage, scoring 67.9/100 for workstation tasks, not for portable or gaming use.

The 30-Second Version
A datacenter speed demon that's completely wasted on regular PCs. If you need U.2 and you need it fast, this is your drive. Everyone else should buy an M.2 and save a pile of cash.
Pros & Cons
Переваги
- Blazing fast sequential speeds, top 6% of all drives we've tested 94th
- Enterprise-grade TLC NAND with a 5-year warranty 72nd
- U.2 form factor means hot-swap capability in server chassis 69th
- PCIe 5.0 x4 interface gives it serious headroom
Недоліки
- Absurdly expensive for 1.92TB, bottom 3% for affordability
- Useless for gaming, scored 47.9 out of 100
- Random performance is just average
- No Opal encryption support on this specific model
Факти
Performance
The sequential speed is the headline here, and it's legitimately impressive. This drive sits in the 94th percentile for speed, which means it's faster than almost everything else we've tested. That's the kind of performance you want when you're moving around huge datasets or running databases that live and die by throughput. The random performance is more middle-of-the-pack at 62nd percentile, which is fine for an enterprise drive but nothing to write home about. Endurance lands at 57th percentile, so it's solid but not exceptional. The real surprise is how poorly this scores for portable use, 19.1 out of 100. But that's not really a knock against the drive itself. It's a U.2 drive, it was never meant to be portable.

vs Competition
The D7-PS1010 doesn't really compete with consumer drives like the Samsung 9100 PRO or the WD Black SN850X. Those are M.2 drives built for desktops and laptops, and they'll run circles around this thing in gaming and everyday use for a lot less money. The real comparison is against other enterprise U.2 drives like the Micron T710 or the Kingston FURY Renegade G5. Against those, the Solidigm holds its own on sequential speed but doesn't blow anyone away on random performance or endurance. The Micron T710 is probably the better all-around enterprise pick if you need balanced performance. The Solidigm wins if your workload is heavily sequential.

Value & Pricing
Let's be real: this drive is expensive. Like, really expensive. We're seeing prices from $1,909 to $2,155 in the US, and that's for less than 2TB of storage. You can buy a top-tier consumer 4TB NVMe drive for a fraction of that. But enterprise drives live in a different world. The value proposition here is about reliability, sustained performance, and the U.2 form factor that consumer drives simply don't offer. If you're shopping for a server, the price makes sense. If you're shopping for a PC, it's a terrible deal. Best Buy has the lower end of that price range at $1,909, so if you're buying, that's the listing to grab.

Overview
The Solidigm D7-PS1010 is an enterprise U.2 drive that absolutely rips through sequential workloads. We're talking 94th percentile speed in our database, which puts it right up there with the best PCIe 5.0 drives on the market. But here's the thing: this is not a drive for your gaming rig or your laptop. It's a datacenter workhorse crammed into a 2.5-inch U.2 form factor, and it's priced like one. If you're building a server that needs to chew through massive file transfers all day, this thing is a monster. If you're looking for a boot drive for your PC, keep scrolling.
Common Questions
Q: Can I use this drive in a regular desktop PC?
Only if your motherboard has a U.2 port, which most consumer boards don't. You'd need a U.2 to M.2 adapter or a PCIe add-in card, and even then, you're paying enterprise prices for performance a good consumer NVMe drive can match in everyday use.
Q: Is this drive good for gaming?
No. It scored 47.9 out of 100 for gaming in our testing. Games care about random read performance and low latency, and this drive is just average there. A $150 consumer NVMe drive will load games just as fast, if not faster.
Q: What does 'No Opal' mean?
It means this specific model doesn't support TCG Opal hardware encryption. If you need self-encrypting drive features for compliance or security policies, you'll need to look at a different SKU or handle encryption in software.
Who Should Skip This
If you're building a gaming PC, a workstation, or just want fast storage for your laptop, this isn't it. Go grab a Samsung 9100 PRO or a WD Black SN850X instead. You'll get better real-world performance for your use case, way more capacity for the money, and you won't need to figure out how to mount a U.2 drive in a case that wasn't designed for it. This drive is for server admins and datacenter folks, period.
Verdict
The Solidigm D7-PS1010 is a specialized tool for a specialized job. If you're running a server that needs maximum sequential throughput and you have a U.2 backplane to plug it into, this is one of the fastest drives you can buy. The 5-year warranty and enterprise TLC NAND give you peace of mind for 24/7 operation. But for anyone else, this drive is overkill, overpriced, and honestly kind of a pain to install. Buy it for the datacenter, not the desktop.
