The Intel® Solid-State Drive 510 Series accelerates SATA throughput for demanding client systems by utilizing SATA 6 gigabits per second (Gb/s) performance and proven Intel NAND Flash Memory based SSD technology. Available in a 2.5 inch form factor, the Intel SSD 510 Series supports data transfers of up to 500 megabytes per second (MB/s). As an accelerated storage solution, the Intel SSD 510 Series makes desktops, workstations, and notebooks come alive by transferring more data in less time - expediting storage I/O and unleashing system performance!

Designed to deliver outstanding performance, the Intel SSD 510 Series draws from decades of memory
engineering experience and computequality NAND Flash memory manufacturing. The drives feature the latest generation SATA 6Gb/s interface with advanced architecture employing eight (8) parallel NAND flash channels equipped with multilevel-cell NAND Flash Memory. The Intel SSD 510 Series delivers exceptional throughput—dramatically outperforming traditional hard disk drives (HDDs).

In fact, the Intel® SSD 510 Series outperforms two SATA 6Gb/s 10,000 rpm RAIDed hard disk drives! High-end game and workstation systems benefit from increased storage performance over mechanical hard drive configurations. Mobile workstations now experience higher performance, as well as SSD ruggedness and power savings over RAIDed dual-bay HDDs.

Unlike traditional hard disk drives, Intel Solid-State Drives have no moving parts, resulting in a quiet, cool, highly rugged storage solution that also offers faster system responsiveness. Boot time, application launches, file loads, sleep recovery, benchmarks; each activity is faster with a 120GB or 250GB Intel SSD 510 Series device. Delivering sequential read speeds up to 500MB/s and sequential write to 315MB/s, the Intel® SSD 510 Series dramatically accelerates operating systems and application performance. Designed to satisfy the most demanding gamers, media creators and technology enthusiasts, the Intel SSD 510 Series brings high performance storage and reliability to notebook and desktop PC systems.
