Intel E 7000s 480GB M.2 SATA internal SSD

SKU CH-RGK8-67T2J

A 480 GB SATA internal SSD with 390 MB/s sequential read, 270 MB/s sequential write, 51000 IOPS random read and 12500 IOPS random write, plus 256-bit AES encryption and end-to-end data protection

  • 480 GB capacity stores more files and applications
  • Sequential read speed up to 390 MB/s loads data quickly
  • Sequential write speed up to 270 MB/s saves large files faster
  • Hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption protects sensitive data
  • End-to-end data protection and power-loss safeguards preserve data integrity

Capacity and interface

The Intel E 7000s is a 480 GB internal solid-state drive with an M.2 form factor and a Serial ATA III interface. It uses 3D MLC NAND built on a 16 nm process and is designed as a component for PC or notebook platforms.

Who this suits

Users who need a SATA-based M.2 drive with hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption and end-to-end data protection will find this model appropriate. Builders whose platforms require a PCIe interface should look at a different part.

Deciding specification

The drive delivers sequential read speeds of 390 MB/s and sequential write speeds of 270 MB/s over a 6 Gbit/s SATA link, with random read performance of 51000 IOPS and random write performance of 12500 IOPS.

Questions about this item

What motherboard slot and interface does the Intel E 7000s 480GB M.2 SATA SSD need?

It fits an M.2 slot wired for SATA and uses the SATA 6 Gbit/s interface, so the motherboard must expose SATA signalling on that connector.

Can the 16 nm 3D MLC drive share a SATA controller with an older mechanical hard disk?

Yes, it connects like any SATA device; the controller will negotiate 6 Gbit/s for the SSD and a lower speed for the HDD without conflict.

How can I confirm the SSD is delivering its rated 390 MB/s read and 270 MB/s write after installation?

Run ATTO Disk Benchmark or a similar sequential test; results near 390 MB/s read and 270 MB/s write show the drive is performing to spec.
