Hello sthompson, welcome to the DigiKey TechForum,

While the IMP3M8B3E2A2A1I3B2A0000 and the PS5018-E18 are very similar, I was able to find a couple differences between the two. Both have PCIe but the PS5018-E18 is a Gen 4 (x4 lanes) while the IMP3M8B3E2A2A1I3B2A0000 is a Gen 3 (x 4 lanes) which means they will have different read/write speeds.
