Intel SSD DC S3520 1.6TB 2.5" SATA SSD

The Intel SSD DC S3520 Series is a solid-state storage device engineered for deployment in high-demand, read-intensive data center environments. This 1.6TB drive utilizes the standard Serial ATA III interface, achieving sequential reading speeds up to 450 MB/s and writing speeds up to 380 MB/s. The architecture relies on MLC NAND flash, which provides a balance of performance and longevity necessary for consistent enterprise operation.

Designed for reliability, the S3520 features hardware-based data security, including 256-bit AES encryption and full end-to-end data protection. Operational metrics include a consistent 67,500 random read IOPS and low average latency, registering 40 µs for reads and 42 µs for writes. Furthermore, the drive incorporates enhanced power loss data protection and carries an endurance rating of 2925 TBW, supporting rigorous 24/7 workload stability. The 2.5-inch, 7mm form factor ensures compatibility with standard server chassis slots.
