A 775 GB solid-state drive for AIX, Linux or VIOS that fits the drive bays inside a Power 8 server.
One misaligned row in the REDP-5097 S814 table prints IBM i in the OS column for ES8Q; the REDP-5102 table, the 8284-21A sales manual and the IBM i support page all treat it as the AIX/Linux (VIOS) version.
Before you order ES8Q
IBM sells many drives in two versions: one formatted for IBM i and one for AIX or Linux. Order the one that matches your operating system, and match the carrier to the bay or drawer it goes in.
