Intel P4500 Entry NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 SSDs
Product Guide
The Intel P4500 Entry NVMe SSDs are general-purpose yet high-performance drives with a PCIe 3.0 x4
interface. They are designed for greater performance and endurance in a cost-effective design, and to
support a broader set of workloads.
The Intel P4500 SSDs are based on Intel-developed controller, firmware, and leading manufacturing
process NAND flash memory. Rigorous qualification and compatibility testing by Lenovo ensures a highly
reliable SSD.

Did You Know?
NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) is a technology that overcomes SAS/SATA SSD performance
limitations by optimizing hardware and software to take full advantage of flash technology. Intel Xeon
processors efficiently transfer data in fewer clock cycles with the NVMe optimized software stack
compared to the legacy Advance Host Controller Interface (AHCI) stack, thereby reducing latency and
overhead. These SSDs connect directly to the processor via the PCIe bus, further reducing latency and
TCO.
