Hello Yitian,

We understand you would like to set the maximum LBA to 50%, but you keep getting an error using our Intel® Solid-State Drive Data Center.We would like to know what is the operating system you have installed?If you have Windows*, please make sure you are using the latest NVMe* driver, https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26833/NVMe-Drivers-for-Intel-SSDs download it here.Based on the user guide, the command you need to type is isdct.exe set -intelssd X MaximumLBA=50% (Where "X" is the index of your SSD). https://www.intel.com/content/dam/support/us/en/documents/memory-and-storage/Intel_SSD_DCT_3_0_x_Use... Here is the manual in case you need it. Page 65Please let us know if this worked, so we can further assist you.Regards,Nestor C

Hello Yitian,

Thanks for confirming the information.We noticed that the Intel® Data Center Tool version you are using is not the latest one, could you please uninstall it and install the latest one? https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26926/Intel-SSD-Data-Center-Tool Here is the link to the latest version: 3.0.5.Once you have that version (That includes the support for the Intel® SSD DC P4500), please test the command and let us know the outcome. Here is the command again: isdct.exe set -intelssd X MaximumLBA=50% (Where "X" is the index of your SSD).We'll be waiting for your response.Regards,Nestor C

Hi,

I have tested the command using the Intel® Data Center Tool, which of the latest version is 3.0.5, and it is workable. But there is a new problem:

First, the disk specifications are as follows:

Intel SSD DC P4500 Series PHLF707500404P0DGN: 4TB

{

"Bootloader":"0031",

"DevicePath":"/dev/nvme0n1",

"DeviceStatus":"Healthy",

"Firmware":"QDV10119",

"FirmwareUpdateAvailable":"The selected Intel SSD contains current firmware as of this tool release.",

"Index":0,

"ModelNumber":"INTEL SSDPEDKX040T7",

"ProductFamily":"Intel SSD DC P4500 Series",

"SerialNumber":"PHLF707500414P0DGN"

}

Secondly, the operation is as follows :

1) isdct delete -o json -intelssd 0

2) isdct set -o json -intelssd 0 MaximumLBA=50%,

the result is success. But Viewing disk capacity by fdisk, it shows 1TB.(??? it should be 2TB, because the 50 percent of the disk is 2TB.)

3) isdct delete -o json -intelssd 0

4) isdct set -o json -intelssd 0 MaximumLBA=native,

the result is success. But Viewing disk capacity by fdisk, it shows 2TB.(??? it should be 4TB, because the capacity of the disk is 4TB.)
