SSDSC2KB240GZ01 Intel D3-S4520 240GB SATA 2.5" SSD

High-Performance 2.5in SATA Enterprise SSD featuring PLP and SED security with the SSDSC2KB240GZ01

The SSDSC2KB240GZ01 is an internal Intel D3-S4520 Series 2.5in 7mm SATA 6Gb/s SSD engineered for predictable latency in primary OS boot volumes and read-mostly tiers across rack servers, appliances, and edge nodes. Its 3D TLC NAND design balances capacity efficiency with controlled write behavior, aligning well with mixed profiles such as web tier services, VDI base images, and light database footprints.

Within platforms constrained to SATA backplanes, the SSDSC2KB240GZ01 provides a clean storage architecture for dense 1U/2U deployments, enabling consistent host integration without consuming PCIe lanes reserved for NICs, accelerators, or HBAs. Power Loss Protection and end-to-end data path protection strengthen transactional integrity during unexpected power events, while hardware-based AES 256-bit encryption supports secure multi-tenant and compliance-driven environments. Performance characteristics are optimized for steady-state operation rather than burst behavior, keeping queue depth behavior stable for boot storms and operational logging.

Why Choose the SSDSC2KB240GZ01?

The SSDSC2KB240GZ01 delivers a practical density-to-performance profile for SATA-centric infrastructures that require enterprise endurance, predictable serviceability, and repeatable deployment at scale. With 5-year endurance targeting 2.283 DWPD, it supports sustained write patterns from OS activity, patching cycles, and VDI refresh operations while maintaining reliability expectations for always-on nodes.

Intel designs the D3-S4520 family around data centre validation, consistent firmware behavior, and platform interoperability. The focus on power efficiency, data integrity features, and lifecycle stability aligns with standardised provisioning models and long maintenance windows.

Key Applications:

• Primary OS boot for rack servers
• Web tier read-mostly storage
• VDI base images and caching
• Light database and metadata tiers
• Self-encrypting drive deployments
