Memblaze PBlaze5 700 2TB U.2 NVMe Enterprise SSD — P50D7020A120 (Refurbished)
Technical Identity
This enterprise NVMe solid-state drive is the Memblaze PBlaze5 700 2TB U.2 NVMe SSD (P50D7020A120), a refurbished mixed-use datacenter storage device sold by T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS. The PBlaze5 700 is Memblaze's high-endurance enterprise NVMe family built on 3D TLC NAND and a Memblaze proprietary controller. It is deployed at scale across Chinese hyperscale operators (Alibaba, Tencent, Baidu) and is positioned as a budget-conscious alternative to Samsung PM963 / PM1725a-tier drives in custom-build datacenter environments.

What This Is NOT
The PBlaze5 700 P50D7020A120 is NOT a consumer or client SSD, NOT a SATA or SAS drive, NOT an M.2 module, and NOT a read-intensive 1-DWPD endurance class drive. It is also NOT an EDSFF (E1.S / E3) ruler form factor drive and does NOT ship as a Dell, HPE, or Lenovo OEM-branded SKU with vendor firmware.
Compatibility
The P50D7020A120 requires a U.2 (SFF-8639) NVMe-capable bay backed by PCIe 3.0 x4 (or higher) lanes — typically wired through a tri-mode HBA, native NVMe backplane, or a U.2-to-PCIe (M.2 or AIC) adapter. The 15 mm z-height is standard for enterprise U.2 and does NOT fit 7 mm SATA trays. Memblaze drives may not appear on Dell, HPE, or Lenovo qualified-vendor lists (QVLs); for vendor-validated chassis, verify HCL compatibility before deploying. In whitebox, Supermicro, Inspur, or other custom-build environments the drive enumerates as a standard NVMe namespace and is fully supported by Linux NVMe, VMware ESXi NVMe, and Windows Server inbox drivers. SMART, log pages, and namespace management follow NVMe 1.3 semantics.
FAQ
Q: What capacity and NVMe version does the Memblaze PBlaze5 700 P50D7020A120 support?
A: The Memblaze PBlaze5 700 (P50D7020A120) provides 2TB capacity over PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe 1.3 in a 2.5-inch U.2 (SFF-8639) form factor with 15mm z-height, 3D TLC NAND, and capacitor-backed power-loss protection.
Q: Will the Memblaze PBlaze5 700 P50D7020A120 work in Dell or HPE servers?
A: Physically yes — it fits any standard U.2 NVMe bay. However, Memblaze drives may NOT appear on Dell, HPE, or Lenovo qualified vendor lists (QVLs). In vendor-validated environments, verify HCL compatibility. In custom-build environments, it functions as a standard NVMe U.2 device.
Q: What is the condition of the Memblaze PBlaze5 P50D7020A120 from T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS?
A: The Memblaze PBlaze5 700 2TB P50D7020A120 sold by T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS at tes-itsolutions.com is refurbished and lab-tested with NVMe SMART data verification to confirm drive health, remaining endurance, and full functionality before shipment.
