2.5" 800GB SATA Enterprise SSD

The Intel DC S3500 SSDSC2BB800G401 is a 2.5-inch solid-state drive with an 800GB capacity and a SATA 6Gb/s interface. It uses MLC NAND and delivers sequential reads up to 500 MBps and writes up to 450 MBps. Random 4KB performance reaches 75,000 IOPS read and 11,500 IOPS write. The drive is rated for 2,000,000 hours MTBF.

Server storage upgrades and read-heavy workloads

This drive suits administrators refreshing SATA-based arrays or replacing mechanical disks in 2.5-inch bays where consistent latency matters. Read latency is 50us and write latency is 65us. It operates between 0°C and 70°C and withstands 1,000G shock. Builders whose platforms require PCIe-attached storage or higher write endurance than 11,500 IOPS will need a different interface class.

SATA 6Gb/s interface decides compatibility

The single specification that determines fit is the SATA 6Gb/s interface; the system must provide a standard SATA data and power connection for a 2.5-inch, 7.00mm-high drive. Active power draw is 5W and idle is 0.9W. Vibration tolerance is 2.17 GRMS operating and 3.13 GRMS non-operating. No other connector or protocol is supported.

Questions about this item

How much power does the DC S3500 800GB draw when it runs all day under load?

Active power consumption is 5W. Idle power drops to .9W. The drive is rated for 0 °C to 70 °C operating temperature and 2,000,000 hours MTBF.

What host connector and physical bay does the SSDSC2BB800G401 need to work?

It requires a 2.5" drive bay and a SATA 6Gb/s port. The drive height is 7.00 mm and it uses a standard SATA data and power connector.

Will this SATA 6Gb/s SSD slow down a server backplane built for 3 Gb/s drives?

The SATA 6Gb/s interface negotiates down to 3 Gb/s automatically. Sequential reads reach 500 MBps and writes 450 MBps at 6 Gb/s; performance scales with the link speed.
