Intel® Solid-State Drive 330 Series
1.0 Overview
This document describes the specifications and capabilities of the Intel® Solid-State
Drive 330 Series (Intel
®
SSD 330 Series)1.
The Intel SSD 330 Series delivers leading performance for Serial Advanced Technology
Attachment (SATA)-based computers in capacities of 60 GB, 120 GB, 180 GB and 240
GB.
By combining Intel
®
25nm NAND Flash Memory technology with SA TA 6Gb/s interface
support, the Intel SSD 330 Series delivers sequential read speeds of 500 MB/s and
sequential write speeds2 of 450 MB/s.

hard disk drives (HDDs) and native SATA HDD drop-in replacement with the enhanced
performance, reliability, and ruggedness offered by an SSD.
As compared to standard SATA HDDs, the Intel SSD 330 Series offers these key
features:
• High I/O and throughput performance
• Increased system responsiveness
• High reliability
• Enhanced ruggedness
1. The Intel SSD 330 Series is not currently validated for data center usage.
2. Performance values vary by capacity. See “Performance” on page 6 for details.

2.6 Reliability
The Intel SSD 330 Series meets or exceeds SSD endurance and data retention
requirements as specified in the JESD218 specification. Reliability specifications are
listed in Table 7.
Table 7. Reliability Specifications
Parameter Value
Uncorrectable Bit Error Rate (UBER)
Uncorrectable bit error rate will not exceed one sector in the
specified number of bits read. In the unlikely event of a
nonrecoverable read error, the SSD will report it as a read failure to
the host; the sector in error is considered corrupt and is not
returned to the host.
Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF)
Mean Time Between Failures is estimated based on Telcordia*
methodology and demonstrated through Reliability Demonstration
Test (RDT).
Minimum Useful Life/Endurance Rating
The SSD will have a minimum of three years of useful life under
typical client workloads with up to 20 GB of host writes per day.
Insertion Cycles
The SSD supports up to 250 insertion/removal cycles on SATA/
power cable.

The Intel SSD 330 Series meets the SFF-8201 specification for 9.5mm 2.5-inch drive
form factor and SFF-8223 specification for 2.5-inch Drive w/Serial Attachment
Connector.
4.0 Pin and Signal Descriptions
See the Serial ATA (SATA) Revision 3.0 specification for pin and signal descriptions.
5.0 SMART Attributes
Table 8 lists the limited SMART attributes supported by the Intel SSD 330 Series.
Table 8. SMART Attributes
ID Attribute
Re-allocated Sector Count
05h
09h
0Ch
C0h
E1h
The raw value of this attribute shows the
number of retired blocks since leaving the
factory (grown defect count).
Power-On Hours Count
The raw value reports two values: the first
4 bytes report the cumulative number of
power-on hours over the life of the device,
the remaining bytes report the number of
milliseconds since the last hour increment.
The On/Off status of the Device Initiated
Power Management (DIPM) feature will
affect the number of hours reported. If DIPM
is turned On, the recorded value for
power-on hours does not include the time
that the device is in a "slumber" state. If
DIPM is turned Off, the recorded value for
power-on hours should match the clock
time, as all three device states are counted:
active, idle and slumber.
Power Cycle Count
The raw value of this attribute reports the
cumulative number of power cycle events
over the life of the device.
Power-Off Retract Count (Unsafe Shutdown
Count)
The raw value of this attribute reports the
cumulative number of unsafe (unclean)
shutdown events over the life of the device.
An unsafe shutdown occurs whenever the
device is powered off without STANDBY
IMMEDIATE being the last command.
Host Writes
The raw value of this attribute reports the
total number of sectors written by the host
system. The raw value is increased by 1 for
every 65,536 sectors (32MB) written by
the host.

ID Attribute
Available Reserved Space
This attribute reports the number of reserve
E8h
blocks remaining. The normalized value
begins at 100 (64h), which corresponds to
100 percent availability of the reserved
space. The threshold value for this attribute
is 10 percent availability.
Media Wearout Indicator
This attribute reports the number of cycles
the NAND media has undergone. The
normalized value declines linearly from 100
E9h
to 1 as the average erase cycle count
increases from 0 to the maximum rated
cycles.
Once the normalized value reaches 1, the
number will not decrease, although it is likely
that significant additional wear can be put
on the device.
Total LBAs Written
The raw value of this attribute reports the
F1h
total number of sectors written by the host
system. The raw value is increased by 1 for
every 65,536 sectors (32MB) written by
the host.
Total LBAs Read
The raw value of this attribute reports the
F2h
total number of sectors read by the host
system. The raw value is increased by 1 for
every 65,536 sectors (32MB) read by
the host.
Total NAND Writes

Raw value reports the number of writes to
NAND in 1 GB increments.
