Intel Optane DC P5800X: Controller NVMe version?

mitcharf — Thu, 13 Jul 2023 15:06:46 GMT

Does anyone know what NVMe version the P5800X controller supports with the latest firmware?

An old review when it was initially released stated "The LNBF controller is NVMe 1.3d-compliant, but the company says a firmware update could upgrade the device to NVMe 1.4."

I looked around on Intel's site but couldn't find any document which stated the supported NVMe version. I'm curious if the latest firmware upgrades it to NVMe 1.4.

Thank you for your patience.

We can confirm the P5800X is compliant with the NVMe spec 1.4 once the latest firmware update is applied using the IMAS tool.
