Intel® Solid-State Drive 530 Series (M.2)
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, M.2, next generation storage solutio n designed for
Ultrabook™. T he new M.2 form factor allows ultra-compact solutions which d eliver leading
performance for Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA)-based computers in capacities
ranging up to 360 GB.
The latest featur e addition is the DevSleep function a lity, a low power drive s ta te controlled by the 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
• Low power consumption
• Increased system responsiveness
• High 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 an ATA drive pa s sword—helps protect user data.
• End-to-End Data Protection
End-to-end data protection helps pr otect data from being corrupted acr os s th e da ta pa th 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.

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.

Pin Function Definition
4.3 Device Sleep Feature
Device Sleep (or DevSleep/DEVSLP) is the latest feature aligned with Intel® 4th Gen e r a tion Core™based Ultrabooks™. Ultrab ook ™ has stringent power requirem ents for SSDs and as such requires an
ability to put the drive in a low power state. Although Link P ow er M an a gement allows some control
over power consu m p tion, both methods st ill require the S ATA link to remain on line. The DevSleep pin
is an enable high pin.

5.4.2 SMART Logs
The Intel SSD 530 Series implements the following Log Address es : 00h, 02h, 03h, 06h, and 07h .
The Intel SSD 530 Series implements host vendor specific logs ( a ddresses 80h-9Fh) as read and write
scratchpads, where the default value is zero (0). Intel SSD 530 Series does not wr ite a ny specific
values to these logs unless directed by the host through the appropriate commands.
The Intel SSD 530 Series also imp lements a device vendor specif ic log at address A9h as a read-only
log area with a defa ult value of zero (0 ) .
5.5 Device Statistics
In addition to the SMART attribute structure, statist ics pertaining to th e operation and health of the
Intel SSD 530 Ser ies can be reported to th e host on request thr ough the Device Statistics log as
defined in the AT A specification.
The Device Statistics log is a read-only GPL/SMART log located at rea d lo g a ddr ess 0x04 and is
accessible using READ LOG EXT, READ LOG DMA EXT or SMART READ LOG commands.
