SAMSUNG 870 QVO 8TB 2.5" SATA internal SSD

SKU CH-97DB-1DFP6

This 2.5 inch SATA internal SSD stores 8TB of data and delivers sequential speeds up to 560 MBps read and 530 MBps write

  • Total capacity8 TB
  • Sequential read speedUp to 560 MB/s
  • Sequential write speedUp to 530 MB/s
  • Interface typeSATA III
  • Form factor2.5 in (6.35 cm)
  • Product typeInternal Solid State Drive (SSD)
  • 8TB capacity stores extensive 4K media and game libraries
  • Sequential read up to 560 MBps and write up to 530 MBps for fast boots and app launches
  • QD32 random read 98,000 IOPS and random write 88,000 IOPS deliver responsive multitasking

  • Low 30 mW idle power and 2.2 W average active power reduce energy draw

Capacity and audience

This 8 TB 2.5 inch SATA solid state drive uses Samsung 4 bit QLC V NAND and an MKX controller. It is built for consumer desktops and laptops that need a very large single volume for media libraries and game collections.

Sustained write behaviour

Intelligent TurboWrite provides a larger variable buffer that keeps write speeds high during long transfers. Sequential write reaches up to 530 MBps and random write reaches 88 000 IOPS at queue depth 32. Active power draw averages 2.2 W with a 4 W peak.

SATA interface limits

The drive saturates the SATA III link with sequential reads up to 560 MBps and writes up to 530 MBps. Random read reaches 98 000 IOPS at queue depth 32. Endurance is rated at 2 880 TBW and MTBF at 1 500 000 hours.

Questions about this item

Does the 870 QVO stay cool and quiet when it runs continuously in a desktop?

The drive has no moving parts so it is silent, and its active power draw averages 2.2W with a 4W peak, keeping heat low even during all-day workloads.

What host connector and physical space does the 870 QVO need to operate?

It requires a standard SATA III data port and a 2.5 inch bay at least 7.00 mm tall, plus a SATA power cable from the PSU.

Will the 870 QVO work reliably alongside an older mechanical hard drive on the same SATA controller?

Yes, it uses the same SATA III interface and operates within 0°C to 70°C, so it shares the controller and thermal envelope with legacy drives without issues.
