This is one of those products that shows how SSDs are supposed to be - they need to be this good! This product exceeds by specs any desktop SSD - its TBW are many times higher, it is reliable, it is meant to go into hardware RAID arrays, you can use it for production-grade database storage (with billions of transactions), you can use it even in your video camera system! Yes, it is by now an old-fashion SSD and "only" 550MB/sec - you get a lot more reliability for this speed, so the trade-off is beyond good. At this price - you should be buying them in pairs! There is no reason to have those not in RAID.

There are plenty of 2Tb SATA SSD options out there. And for MOST users, pretty much any SSD will work. However, when you have servers, you'll want to invest the extra in server-grade SSD's like these Intel units, which are designed to handle near-constant access, 24x7, for years upon years, and whose firmware is specifically calibrated to be used in RAID systems. So, in my particular use case, paying 3x as much for these units is a no-brainer, as I need guaranteed RAID reliability, not just better performance that the consumer SSDs provide. Reliability has been great, I've been using these Intel Server SSDs for years and never had a failure. Can't say that for desktop SATA SSDs where I've lost 3-4 now over the years.

The unit I received is a s4510 made about a year ago. The warranty starts from the date of manufacture so you automatically lose a year of warranty. The seal is also partially broken so I can't determine whether it is used or not. The contact looked fine through two layers of plastic but I could not get better details without breaking the rest of the seal. Can't take the risk and the unit is returned.

I have been using this drive for proxmox over a year with no complain. First on a Lenovo Tiny and now on a x570 board. Zero problems.

I replaced my 5-year-old PNY 512MB SSD with this Intel bad boy and haven't been happier. As a cache drive, the unit gets read and written to a lot, so I really wanted to put an enterprise-class device in there. I also wanted something fast and technology has really improved in the last 5 years. The size is overkill for my situation, but I really like having an enterprise class SSD in that position!

Received well on time and same as shown. worked in my HP Storeasy 1650 Server so smooth. i replaced the OS SSD RAID 1 drives as they completed 68,000 hours with these SSDs. No issues at all with both SSDs i bought. Excellent purchase and vendor commitment. Will return for more purchase...

Reading Smartctl showed they had many hours of use, 5,000 to 25,000.

arrivato prima del previsto e funziona.

Aunque lo compré "como nuevo" tenía muchas horas de uso y era inutilizable, estaba en estado "malo". Se tuvo que devolver.
