Intel to Offer Affordable 600p NVMe SSDs
Granted, you do need a compatible motherboard, but NVMe SSDs are as far as I am concerned incredibly intersting if you want enthusiast grade SSD performance. Up-to this moment a little bit pricy.
Intel is trying to change that as they will release a 'budget' version of the new 600p series NVMe protocol based M2 SSDs. The 600p series will be fitted with 3D NAND Tri-Level Cell (TLC) flash storage and will be offered on the 80mm single-sided M.2 form factor that connects to an NVMe compatible / PCIe 3.0 (x4) slot. Intel will release capacities of 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB.
Much like price per GB the sequential read/write and random read/write speeds vary between all models, with sequential reads ranging from 770MB/s to 1,800MB/s, and sequential writes spanning 450MB/s to 560MB/s. The random reads are between 35,000 IOPS and 155,000 IOPS, and the random writes are between 91,000 IOPS and 128,000 IOPS.
“Designed for a range of devices from desktops to laptops, the Intel SSD 600p Series will effortlessly manage demanding consumer client applications and easily handle intense multi-tasking,” the company said on Thursday. “The SSD 600p Series will take PCs to a new level of responsiveness with fast application launches and file loading.”
| Capacity | Sequential read (MB/s) |
Sequential write (MB/s) |
Random read (IOPS) |
Random write (IOPS) |
MSRP |
| 128 GB | 770 | 450 | 35K | 91K | $69.00 |
| 256GB | 1570 | 540 | 71K | 112K | $104.00 |
| 512GB | 1775 | 560 | 128.5K | 128K | $189.00 |
| 1024GB | 1800 | 560 | 155K | 128K | $359.00 |
The new 600p Series have a typical power consumption of 100 milliwatts while active, 40 milliwatts when idle, and 5 milliwatts during sleep. Other highlights outlined by Intel include AES 256-bit self-encryption, a five-year warranty. The costs per gigabyte varies for volume size, but 53 cents for the 128GB drive to just 35 cents for the 1TB model, these drives are among the most competitively-priced NVMe SSDs thus far.

You can't just post the numbers and compare. You have to think.
I have an Intel X25-M 160GB drive that I bought new in 2009 for $550 and it's seen daily use. I'd call it average use, no video or photo editing. I have 18.3TB lifetime host writes on the drive.
72TB is more than enough for the average Joe Shmoe on this site that plays games and browses the internet. It would only be a concern if your job entails video/photo/3D editing. Speeds are good too, removing the SATA bottleneck is big. Writing that 1TB drive 72 times over to completion just won't happen, it will probably die first and I'd be surprised if its lifespan is as long as this X25-M.
This drive is a no brainer for everyone except heavy content creators who do it for their day job.

if the endurance that low, it seems they using their lowest grade chip
the good things they still provide 5years warranty for it...
not sure if affordable = value...
intel product has been always expensive = high quality/reliability which turn to better value in long term
but this one, its more like micron typical product
72TBW isn't bad at all for a consumer grade product. The drive will be obsolete long before it fails due to write cycles. I'd venture to say the average consumer is writing less than 5TB per year.....giving this drive a 14.4 year life span. How many people keep a drive that long? Most of us don't keep a harddrive longer than 5 years. There's a higher risk of circuit failure than there is NAND failure during it's usable life span.
