70 PCI Express Solid-State Device Support
Approaching Read Only — The drive is running out of spare
sectors and is reaching the read-only mode. However, the
health status of the drive is good and data retention is
unaffected. The drive is stated to be approaching the read-
only mode if the value for percent lifetime used is less than
100 percent and that for write protect progress is greater than
or equal to 90 percent.
Read Only — The drive is in read-only mode. Users must save
open files, if any, to another device and replace or remove the
device. If this scenario occurs within three years of the device
installation, this failure is covered under warranty. The drive is
in read-only mode if the value for percent lifetime used is less
than 100 percent and that for write protect progress is equal to
90 percent.
Driver Version Displays the version of the driver that is currently installed on
the sub system.
NOTE: On some sub systems, Storage Management may not be
able to obtain the driver version. In this case, Storage
Management displays Not Applicable.
Device Life
Remaining
Displays the wear out percentage of the PCIe SSD.
Revision Displays the current running firmware version on the PCIe
SSD.
Model Number Displays the Piece Part Identification (PPID) of the PCIe
SSD.
Capacity Displays the full capacity of the device.
Vendor ID Displays the hardware vendor of the device.
Product ID Displays the product ID of the device.
Serial No. Displays the serial number of the device.
Negotiated Speed Displays the speed of data transfer that the device negotiated
during initial communication. The negated speed depends on
the speed of the device, the capable speed of the PCIe
extender card, and the current speed of the PCIe extender
card on that connector.
