product brief

Intel® Solid State Drive 730 Series

Data Center DNA

Performance Unleashed

Factory overclocked 3rd generation Intel controller infused with DNA stolen
from the Intel SSD Data Center Family.

Optimized for Performance

Maximize your computing experience
with the Intel® Solid State Drive (Intel®
SSD) 730 Series, built with a specially
qualied 3rd generation Intel con­troller, 20nm NAND and optimized

rmware.

Intel has taken storage a step fur­ther by factory overclocking these
components to push the limits of
performance with a 50% increase in
controller speed and 20% increase in

NAND bus speed. Intel SSD 730 Series

are optimized for the most demanding
tasks including digital content creation,
video capture/editing, extreme gaming
and other client usages where stor­age performance improves the user’s

experience and eciency. Applications
will benet from the 50µs read latency,

up to 550MB/s sequential reads and

89,000 IOPs random reads.

730 Series + Intel® Rapid
Storage Technology = Amazing
Performance

Digital Content Creation experts and
PC Enthusiasts know the highest
storage performance is achieved

with RAID-0 congurations as SSDs
saturate the SATA interface. Comparing

two Intel SSD 730 Series drives in a
RAID-0 array to a single alternative
SSD, results in the same capacity

and nearly double the performance.

As shown below, two Intel SSD 730

Series drives in a RAID-0 conguration

can provide throughput numbers
exceeding 1000MB/s when coupled
with Intel platforms supporting Intel

Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST).

Similarly four Intel SSD 730 Series
drives in a RAID-0 array with an Intel®
chipset based platform can provide

performance exceeding 1500MB/s.

Internal Intel test results with IOMeter 2009. 10/22 on Intel Core i7 4770K, Z87 Chipset, 8GB PC3-10700, RST
version 12.8. For more information go to: www.intel.com/performance

Non-Volatile Memory Storage Solutions

Intel® Solid State Drive 730 Series

Intel Data Center DNA = Extreme Endurance & Performance Consistency

Intel® SSD 730 Series also delivers excellent endurance to support the needs of the

most demanding client usages. Support for up to 70GB writes per day for ve years
(compared to the industry typical 20GB) provides piece of mind for digital content

creators and PC enthusiasts who demand dependable up-time from their workstations

and gaming rigs. The Intel SSD 730 Series drive also brings greater performance
consistency to the client market in both single drive and multiple drive RAID arrays.
Intel’s advanced rmware algorithms allow Intel to deliver client SSDs with “data
center” eciency and dependability throughout the life of the drive.

Solid State Drive Computing Starts with Intel Inside®.
