EDSFF Form Factors: E1 and E3 Series
- E1.S：E1.S: Optimized for 1U High-Density Servers
E1.S is designed for vertical installation in high-density 1U servers, utilizing an x4 interface. Compared to M.2 form factors, E1 provides superior thermal management and storage density. Its adaptable design makes E1.S particularly suited for servers and storage systems in data centers. - E1.L：E1.L: The "Ruler" Drive with Enhanced Capacity and Cooling
E1.L, often referred to as the "ruler" form factor, supports up to Gen4 PCIe with NVMe protocol and is approximately three times the length of E1.S. Its design allows for greater capacity and enhanced thermal performance in 1U servers. E1.L is highly effective for high-density storage solutions, offering exceptional scalability and massive storage capabilities. - E3.S： A Modern Take on the Traditional 2.5-Inch Drive
Resembling the dimensions of a traditional 2.5-inch hard drive, E3.S is available in two widths: single-width (7.5mm) and double-width (16.8mm). With support for up to x16 lanes, E3.S is ideal for environments requiring high computational performance. - E3.L：The Large-Scale Performer for 2U Servers
E3.L comes in a larger form factor with a maximum power consumption of up to 70W, making it perfectly suited for 2U servers. It supports higher capacity and performance, making it an excellent choice for applications demanding substantial storage capabilities.
