Drive identity

The Intel 320 Series is a 2.5 inch internal solid state drive with a 40GB capacity and a SATA interface. It uses MLC NAND built on a 25nm process and includes an Intel controller. The drive is designed for consumer workloads such as operating system boot and application loading.

Sustained operation

Random 4KB read performance reaches 39,500 IOPS while random writes reach 23,000 IOPS. Sequential reads run up to 270MB/s and sequential writes up to 220MB/s. Enhanced power loss management protects data during unexpected shutdowns and AES 128 bit encryption secures the full disk. The drive carries a 1,200,000 hour MTBF rating.

Compatibility check

Verify that your system provides a standard 2.5 inch drive bay with a 7mm height clearance. Confirm the motherboard or host adapter supports a SATA connection for this drive. Ensure the operating environment can supply power to a SATA solid state device.

Questions about this item

Does the Intel 320 Series 40GB SSD produce much noise or heat during all-day use?

As a solid-state drive with no moving parts it runs silently and generates minimal heat; power draw stays low thanks to the Intel controller and 25 nm MLC NAND.

What must my system already have for this SSDSA2BT040G301 to work?

A free 2.5 inch drive bay and a SATA data plus power connection are required; the drive uses a standard SATA II interface.

Will this 320 Series drive work alongside an older mechanical hard disk I want to keep?

Yes, it can share the same SATA controller; the SSD delivers up to 39,500 IOPS random reads and 23,000 IOPS random writes while the HDD handles bulk storage.
