INTEL 660P SERIES NVME SSD, M.2 TYPE 2280 - 512 GB

Just like the previous 600p series, the 660p comes in the M.2 form factor with a length of 80mm (2280) and is connected via PCIe 3.0 x4. While the predecessor also used TLC-3D-NAND with three bits per memory cell, the 660p series now offers four bits per memory cell and lower prices as well as more storage space for the customer.

The Intel SSD 660p M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD at a glance:
- Modern M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD with 512 GB capacity
- Extreme fast 1,500 / 1,000 MB / s read / write
- Total 90,000 / 220,000 IOPS OPS 4KB Random Read / Write
- Excellent price / performance ratio

Guaranteed write volume (TBW): 100 TB (until then 5 years manufacturer's warranty)

M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD with QLD 3D NAND memory
The Intel SSD 660p series supports four standard 3.0 PCI Express lanes, and the 512 GB model achieves a maximum of 1,500 MB / s reading and 1,000 MB / s SLC cache writing, as well as fantastic IOPS values of 90,000 read or 220,000 when writing.

The key to the performance of the Intel SSD 660p is the dynamic SLC cache, which can scale its size according to the amount of storage used on the SSD. Less than 25 percent occupied, it reaches the size of 55 gigabytes in the 512-gigabyte model.
