What are the performance specifications of the Intel SSDSC2BA800G301?

The SSD delivers up to 75,000 random 4KB read IOPS and 36,000 random 4KB write IOPS (IOMeter QD32, full LBA range), sustained sequential read up to 500 MB/s, and write up to 460 MB/s via SATA 6Gb/s. Average latency is 500 µs read/write at 99.9% QoS, with performance consistency at 90%/90% (99.9%).

What endurance rating does this SSD provide for enterprise use?

Rated for 10 drive writes per day (DWPD) over 5 years per JESD218, totaling 16.9PB endurance for the 800GB capacity. This supports high-write workloads like logging and caching while maintaining <1E-16 UBER reliability.

Does the SSDSC2BA800G301 include data security features?

Yes, it features AES 256-bit hardware encryption, end-to-end data path protection with HET, parity checks, CRC verification, and power-loss protection capacitors to prevent data corruption during outages.

What is the power consumption and thermal profile?

Active power up to 6W typical, idle 650mW. Operating temperature 0°C to 70°C with thermal throttling, monitoring, and logging. Weight is 73.6g ±2g for reliable dense server deployments.

Is this SSD suitable for virtualization environments?

Yes, ideal for VMware or Hyper-V hosts as boot/OS drives or VM storage, offering consistent low latency, high IOPS for VM boot storms, and PLP to protect against host power failures in clustered setups.

What form factor and interface does it use?

2.5-inch 7mm height form factor with standard SATA 6Gb/s interface, compatible with enterprise servers, storage arrays, and any SATA backplane supporting 2.5-inch drives.

Product overview

The Intel SSDSC2BA800G301 belongs to the DC S3700 Series, designed specifically for data center environments requiring consistent performance, high endurance, and robust data protection. This 800GB 2.5-inch form factor SSD utilizes 25nm High Endurance Technology (HET) Multi-Level Cell (MLC) NAND flash memory paired with a SATA 6Gb/s interface. It achieves up to 75,000 random 4KB read IOPS and 36,000 random 4KB write IOPS (QD32), with sustained sequential read speeds up to 500 MB/s and write speeds up to 460 MB/s. Key features include end-to-end data path protection with parity checks, CRC, and HET; AES 256-bit encryption; enhanced power-loss protection with capacitors; thermal throttling and monitoring; and 10 drive writes per day (DWPD) endurance for 5 years, totaling 16.9PB written. Average latency is 500 µs read/write at 99.9% QoS. Power consumption peaks at 6W active, idles at 650mW. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 70°C, with simulated altitude support up to 10,000 ft. Ideal for read-intensive workloads like boot drives, hot data caching, and virtualization in enterprise servers, it ensures high reliability through JESD218 compliance and low UBER rates.
