Intel SSD DC P3520 2TB 1/2 Height PCIe SSD

This Intel SSD DC P3520 is a robust, high-capacity solid-state drive specifically engineered for deployment in data center and enterprise environments. Utilizing a 1/2 Height PCIe card form factor, this 2.0 TB model integrates directly into server architectures requiring accelerated storage performance. It relies on the NVMe 3.0 protocol over a PCIe x4 interface, optimizing throughput and reducing latency compared to traditional SATA or SAS drives. The design targets read-intensive workloads where rapid data access is critical for operational efficiency.

Sequential performance metrics indicate sustained reading at 1700 MB/s and writing at 1350 MB/s, supporting high data volume transfer rates. Furthermore, the drive achieves 375,000 random read IOPS, providing strong responsiveness for concurrent server application requests. Reliability standards include an endurance rating of 2490 TBW and a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 2 million hours. Integrated features like enhanced power loss data protection and end-to-end data protection ensure continuous data integrity during operation.
