The in-box NVMe* driver included with Windows Server 2008* and Windows Server 2012* doesn't allow administrative commands to be passed to NVMe drives.

Therefore, the Intel SSD Data Center Tool requires the Intel SSD NVMe driver in order to function properly. Access the Intel SSD NVMe driver. Purpose

The Intel SSD Data Center Tool is a drive management tool for SSDs in the Intel SSD Data Center Family. It provides the following key features for both SATA- and PCIe*-based

Detect PCIe/NVMe- and SATA-based Intel SSD Data Center devices attached to a host system.

Parse an Intel SSD's Identify Device information.

Parse an Intel SSD's SMART (Self-Monitoring and Reporting Technology) information.

Resize the Intel SSD's usable storage capacity by chag its maximum LBA setting.

Update Intel SSD firmware:

The tool carries a firmware payload for all supported drives.

When drive information is displayed, the tool will indicate if a new firmware release is available.

The tool doesn't update firmware on Eeering Sample (ES) drives.

Calculate drive life expectancy (Endurance Analyzer feature).

Enable/Disable Latency Tracking.

Parse read and write commands Latency Tracking logs.

Read and/or modify the SM Bus Address for PCIe NVMe family drives.

Set the Power Governor Mode (vendor unique feature). Three Modes are supported:

0: 25-watts for PCIe NVMe devices; 40-watts for PCIe NVMe x8 devices; unconstrained for SATA devices

1: 20-watts for PCIe NVMe devices; 35-watts for PCIe NVMe x8 devices; typical (7-watts) for SATA devices

2: 10-watts for PCIe NVMe devices; 25-watts for PCIe NVMe x8 devices; low (5-watts) for SATA devices.

The Intel SSD Data Center Tool features a Command Line Interface (CLI) for both Windows* and Linux*.
