Capacity and form factor

The Intel DC S3710 SSDSC2BA012T401 is a 2.5-inch enterprise solid-state drive with a 1.2TB capacity. It uses a SATA III interface and MLC memory components for consistent performance in server and storage arrays. The drive is suited for read-intensive workloads requiring high endurance and data integrity.

Upgrade path and justification

This drive replaces mechanical hard drives or lower-endurance SSDs in 2.5-inch SATA bays. The jump is worth it when workloads demand up to 550 MBps sequential reads, 520 MBps sequential writes, and 85,000 random read IOPS with a 2,000,000-hour MTBF. It adds AES 256-bit hardware encryption and enhanced power-loss data protection.

SATA interface limits

The SATA III interface caps maximum throughput at 6 Gbps, limiting sequential speeds to the rated 550 MBps read and 520 MBps write. Random write performance tops out at 45,000 IOPS. Latency sits at 55 µs read and 66 µs write. Active power draw reaches 6.9W within a 0°C to 70°C operating range.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5-inch form factor fit my server bay?

The drive uses a standard 2.5-inch form factor with SATA connectors, matching common server and laptop bays designed for this size.

How is the Intel DC S3710 installed, and what step is often missed?

Connect the SATA data and power cables, secure the drive in the bay, then enable AHCI mode in the system BIOS so the SATA III interface operates at full speed.

When will the 1.2TB MLC drive need replacement?

With a 2,000,000-hour MTBF and high-endurance MLC NAND, the SSD is rated for years of continuous operation; monitor SMART attributes for media wear or reallocated sectors to plan replacement.
