Optane-dc-p4800x Formatting Options

[RChee1]

Hi,

I was looking for an Optane SSD that supports 4KB formatting option. Wanted to check if the all the formatting options supported in the DC3700 series are also supported in the Optane enterprise drive.

Would be helpful if you can send me the detailed datasheet before I buy the drives.

Thanks for the help.
