It is the ideal upgrade for databases, virtualization deployments, analytics platforms, AI workloads, and large-scale object storage where latency matters and consistent throughput is essential. With enterprise-grade endurance, robust data protection features, and a compact footprint, the P4510 is designed to maximize server utilization, minimize downtime, and simplify storage architecture in demanding environments. Whether you operate a high-density data center, a private cloud, or a mission-critical application stack, the P4510 combines speed, durability, and manageability to help you accelerate workloads and unlock new capabilities.

  • High-speed NVMe performance: Leverages PCIe-based NVMe connectivity to deliver ultra-low latency and high input/output operations per second (IOPS), enabling rapid data access for transactional workloads, real-time analytics, and hot data paths. This translates to faster query responses, quicker backups, and smoother virtualization experiences.
  • Enterprise-grade endurance and reliability: Designed for sustained write-intensive workloads with wear-leveling intelligence, error correction, and robust data integrity safeguards. The P4510 maintains steady performance under heavy load, reduces drive wear, and helps ensure consistent service levels for mission-critical applications.
  • 2 TB capacity in a 2.5" form factor: A compact, industry-standard drive that fits into standard server bays and storage arrays. The 2 TB capacity supports large databases, dense virtual machines, and scalable storage pools while leaving room for growth and tiered architectures.
  • U.2 (SFF-8639) interface for enterprise compatibility: A familiar hot-swap capable interface compatible with modern servers, storage controllers, and hot-plug drive trays. U.2 enables straightforward deployment in data centers that require flexible cabling and easy maintenance without sacrificing performance.
  • Security and data protection: Includes enterprise-ready data protection features such as hardware-accelerated encryption and robust error management to safeguard sensitive information at rest and support regulatory compliance in regulated environments.

How to Install Cisco P4510 2 TB NVMe U.2

  • Power down and unplug the server or storage device, and ground yourself to prevent static discharge.
  • Identify an available U.2 (SFF-8639) drive bay or compatible PCIe/U.2 controller slot in your server chassis.
  • Remove the drive tray or sled from the enclosure, then insert the P4510 into the tray, aligning it with the connector, and secure it with the mounting screws.
  • Connect the U.2 data/power interface to the server’s U.2 connector or to a compatible NVMe adapter, ensuring a firm and secure connection.
  • Reinstall the drive tray into the chassis, reseat all connectors, and power on the system. Enter the BIOS or RAID controller utility to confirm the drive is recognized.
  • Boot into the operating system, initialize the drive, and format or configure it within your storage management software. If needed, apply any available firmware updates from Cisco or the motherboard/controller provider.
  • Integrate the P4510 into your storage pool or RAID array as appropriate for your workload, and monitor health and performance through standard monitoring tools.
