1.2 TB PCIe 3.0 x4 MLC enterprise SSD

The Intel SSDPE2MX012T701 is a 2.5 inch enterprise solid-state drive with 1.2 TB capacity and a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 interface. It uses MLC memory components and is built for servers that need consistent performance in read-heavy workloads.

Sustained write behaviour

Sequential write speed reaches up to 1300 MBps while random write performance delivers up to 26,000 IOPS at 4 KB. Write latency is rated at 20 µs and active write power draws 11 W, allowing steady throughput without the sharp drops seen in burst-only drives.

PCIe 3.0 x4 interface limits

The four-lane PCIe 3.0 link caps sequential reads at 1700 MBps and random reads at 320,000 IOPS. Operating temperature is limited to 0 °C to 35 °C and the drive tolerates 2.17 GRMS vibration while running, so dense chassis must provide adequate airflow to stay within spec.

Questions about this item

How much power does the Intel SSDPE2MX012T701 draw when reading or writing continuously?

Active power is 9W during reads and 11W during writes, while idle power is 4W.

What slot and form factor does the SSDPE2MX012T701 require on my server board?

It needs a 2.5" PCI-Express 3.0 x4 slot; the drive is 15.00mm high and weighs 125.00g.

Will the 1.2TB PCIe 3.0 x4 MLC drive work in a system that only has older PCIe 2.0 slots?

The drive uses a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 interface; it will negotiate down to the slot speed available.
