Intel® Solid State Drive Data Center Family for PCIe®
Consistently Amazing
Make the Switch to Faster Data
Deliver breakthrough performance with Intel PCIe Solid State Drives.
Breakthrough Performance
1
The Intel® Solid State Drive (SSD) Data
Center Family for PCIe brings extreme
data throughput directly to Intel® Xeon®
processors with up to six times faster
data transfer speed than 6 Gbps SAS/
SATA SSDs.The Intel SSD Data Center
Family for PCIe is capable of reading data
up to 2.8GB/s and 460k Input/Output
Operations Per Second (IOPS) and writ-
ing up to 2.0GB/s and 175k IOPS.
The performance of a single drive from
the Intel SSD Data Center Family for
PCIe, specifically the Intel® SSD DC
P3700 Series (460K IOPS), can replace
the performance of 7 SATA SSDs
aggregated through an HBA (~500K
IOPS). At 200 IOPS per Hard Disk Drive
(HDD), 2,300 15K HDDs would be needed
to match the performance of one Intel
SSD Data Center Family for PCIe device.
(HET) enables the Intel DC P3700 Series to
achieve 17 drive writes per day over a five
year drive life.
Modernize Data Center Storage
NVMe is engineered for current and future
Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) technologies,
unlike SAS/SATA SSDs. NVMe overcomes
SAS/SATA SSD performance limitations
by optimizing hardware and software to
take full advantage of NVM SSD technol-
ogy. Intel Xeon processors efficiently
transfer data in fewer clock cycles with the
NVMe optimized software stack compared
to the legacy Advance Host Controller
Interface (AHCI) stack, reducing latency
and overhead. Direct CPU connection also
eliminates Host-Bus-Adapter (HBA) cards,
further reducing latency and TCO.
Comprehensive Solution
Intel‘s product line enables extensive
system compatibility, completes
numerous industry standard compliance
certifications, and delivers Intel drivers,
supporting industry driver development.
The Intel SSD Data Center Family for
PCIe includes the Intel Solid State Drive
DC P3700, P3600, and P3500 Series
providing a full range of endurance up to
17 full-capacity writes per day, capacity
up to 2TB, and 2.5-inch and Add-in-
Card (AIC) form factors. Intel-enabled
NVMe software drivers are provided
by major operating system vendors
including Microsoft* Server 2012 and
2008, Windows* 7, 8, and 8.1 Red Hat*
7.0/6.6/6.5, SLES* 11 SP3, UEFI* 2.3.1,
and the Linux* Open Source development
community. The new 2.5-inch form
factor with hot-swap capability provides
convenient front panel serviceability
allowing quick, uninterrupted installation.
The AIC form factor conveniently fits in
half-height, half-length (HHHL) slots.
Non-Volatile Memory Storage Solutions
Servers can now support more
users simultaneously, compute on
larger data sets, and address high-
performance computing at lower
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).1
Intel® SSD Data Center Tool provides
a powerful set of management
capabilities.
Intel led the industry in creation of a
new Non-Volatile Memory Express*
(NVMe™) storage interface standard.
Intel is driving transition to NVMe
SSDs by providing a comprehensive
product line.

Intel SSD Data Center Family for PCIe’s
consistently amazing performance
provides fast, unwavering data streams
directly to Intel Xeon processors mak-
ing server data transfers efficient. SSD
performance consistency provides
scalable throughput when multiple SSDs
are unified into a single storage volume.
The massive storage bandwidth increase
feeds Intel Xeon processor systems giv-
ing data center servers a performance
boost.
Proven Quality and Reliability
Intel SSD Data Center Family for PCIe
devices are based on Intel-developed
controller, firmware, and leading manu-
facturing process NAND flash memory.
Rigorous qualification and compatibility
testing ensures a highly reliable SSD.

Based on the Intel®
Solid State Drive DC P3500, P3600 and P3700 Series Product Specifications. Random I/O Operations based on Thousand (K) IOPS
Performance varies by capacity and is measured using IOMeter* with Queue Depth 128, for sequential workload Queue Depth 128 with single worker. For Random workload Queue Depth 32, with 4 workers.
Measurements are performed on full span of logical block address (LBA) range on an SSD that is filled to capacity with data. IOPS setup: Intel® Core
TM
i7-3770K CPU @ 3.50GHz, 8GB of system memory, Windows*
Server 2012, and IOMeter tool were used. DC P3700 system performance is configuration dependent. Random performance is collected with 4 workers each with 32 QD.
