Intel® Solid-State Drive 530 Series (mSATA)
1 Introduction
This document describes the specifications and c a p abilities of the In tel® Solid-State Drive 530 Ser ies
(Intel® SSD 530 Series).
The Intel® SSD 530 Series is a case-less mSATA (mini-SATA) design that is designed for Ultrabook™
and small form f a c tor compute platforms. This form factor allows ultra-compact solutions which d eliver
leading performance for Serial A dvanced Technology Attachment (SATA)-based compu ters in
capacities ranging up to 240GB.
The latest featur e addition is the DevSleep function a lity, a low power drive s ta te controlled by th e host
via the DevSleep pin. The drive w ill con s ume a mere 200 µW while in this state.
As compared to standard SATA HDDs, Intel SSD 530 Series of fers these key features:
• High I/O and throughput performance
• Lower power consumpti on
• Increased system responsiveness
• Higher reliability
• Enhanced ruggedness
• Small form-factor
• Minimum weight
The Intel SSD 530 Series also offers additional key features such as:
• Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) 256-bit Encryption
AES 256-bit encryption is a n industry standa r d in data security, providing a hardware -based
mechanism for encryption and decryption of user data. Utilizing a 256-bit en cryption key, AES
encryption—when combined with a n ATA drive password—helps protect u s er da ta .
• End-to-End Data Protection
End-to-end data protection helps protec t data from being corrupted acr oss the data path by using
cyclic redundancy check (CRC), parity, and error correction code (ECC) checks in the data path from
the host interfac e to the NAND, and back .
• Data Compression
Data compression helps improve performance and endurance by automatically compressing
information sen t to the SSD so that less data has to be processed and stored on the NAND. The
amount of data that can be compress ed depends on the type of data.
