Day 0: The Storage Array Is at 92 Percent. Procurement Approves the PO.
Lunes, 09:00. The monitoring dashboard shows your VMware datastore at 92 percent capacity. Growth rate is 2 percent per week. You have four weeks before the array hits 100 percent. The PO for additional storage is approved by 14:00. The drives need to be in the rack and serving data by Friday.
Day 1: Solidigm P5520 7.68TB drives arrive. These are PCIe 4.0 NVMe read-intensive SSDs rated at 1 DWPD with 144-layer 3D NAND. For a VMware datastore that is 80 percent reads, read-intensive is exactly the right endurance tier.
Day 2: Drives installed. REDADA 10 configured across 8 unidades. 30.7 TB usable. vMotion migration begins at 2.4 GB/S.
Day 3: Migration complete. Datastore utilization drops from 92 a 58 percent. Latency at 82 microseconds. No incident ticket was filed.

Three Rules for Read-Intensive SSDs
1. Monitor actual DWPD. At 0.2 DWPD, the drive outlasts its warranty 5x. At 0.9 DWPD, it hits its limit in 5.5 years. Use iDRAC/iBMC telemetry.
2. REDADA 10 for virtualization, REDADA 5 for read-mostly. VMware hosts benefit from RAID 10 write speed. CDN nodes at 90 percent reads can use RAID 5.
3. Over-provisioning is built in. Format at full capacity. Factory over-provisioning handles wear leveling.
