Intel® Solid-State Drive 530 Series (2.5-inch)
1 Introduction
This document describes the specifications and capabilities of the Intel® Solid-State Drive 530 Series
(Intel® SSD 530 Series).
The Intel SSD 530 Series delivers the next generation storage solution with new low power features
designed for Ultrabook™. The next generation Intel SSD continues to provide high performance
expected for Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA)-based computers.
The industry-standard 2.5-inch form factor enables interchangeability with existing hard disk drives
(HDDs) and native SATA HDD drop-in replacement with the enhanced performance, reliability, and
ruggedness offered by an SSD.
The latest feature addition is the DevSleep functionality, a low power drive state controlled by the host
via the DevSleep pin. The drive will consume a mere 5 mW while in this state.
As compared to standard SATA HDDs, Intel SSD 530 Series offers these key features:
•
•
•
•
•
High I/O and throughput performance
Low power consumption
Increased system responsiveness
High reliability
Enhanced ruggedness
The Intel SSD 530 Series also offers additional key features such as:
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) 256-bit Encryption
•
AES 256-bit encryption is an industry standard in data security, providing a hardware-based
mechanism for encryption and decryption of user data. Utilizing a 256-bit encryption key, AES
encryption—when combined with an ATA drive password—helps protect user data.
•
End-to-End Data Protection
End-to-end data protection helps protect data from being corrupted across the data path by using
cyclic redundancy check (CRC), parity, and error correction code (ECC) checks in the data path from
the host interface to the NAND, and back.
•
Data Compression
Data compression helps improve performance and endurance by automatically compressing
information sent to the SSD so that less data has to be processed and stored on the NAND. The
amount of data that can be compressed depends on the type of data.

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 non-recoverable 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.
< 1 sector per 1016 bits read
Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF)
Mean Time Between Failures is estimated based on Telcordia*
methodology and demonstrated through Reliability Demonstration Test
(RDT).
≥ 1.2 million hours
Minimum Useful Life/Endurance Rating
5 years
The SSD will have a minimum useful life based on a typical client workload
assuming up to 20 GB of host writes per day.
Insertion Cycles
250 insertion/removal cycles
Maximum insertion/removal cycles on 2.5 inch port

Hot Plug Support
Hot Plug insertion and removal is supported in the presence of a proper connector and appropriate
operation system, as described in the SATA 3.0 specification.
This product supports asynchronous signal recovery and issues an unsolicited COMINIT when first
mated with a powered connector to guarantee reliable detection by a host system without hardware
device detection.

Device Sleep Feature
Device Sleep (or DevSleep/DEVSLP) is the latest feature aligned with Intel® 4th Generation Core™-
based Ultrabook™. Ultrabook™ has stringent power requirements for SSDs and as such requires an
ability to put the drive in a low power state. Although Link Power Management allows some control
over power consumption, both methods still require the SATA link to remain online. The DevSleep pin
is an enable high pin which is pulled up by the drive

This attribute reports the number of cycles the

declines linearly from 100 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.

SMART Logs
The Intel SSD 530 Series implements the following Log Addresses: 00h, 02h, 03h, 06h, and 07h.
The Intel SSD 530 Series implements host vendor specific logs (addresses 80h-9Fh) as read and write
scratchpads, where the default value is zero (0). Intel SSD 530 Series does not write any specific
values to these logs unless directed by the host through the appropriate commands.
The Intel SSD 530 Series also implements a device vendor specific log at address A9h as a read-only
log area with a default value of zero (0).
5.5
Device Statistics
In addition to the SMART attribute structure, statistics pertaining to the operation and health of the
Intel SSD 530 Series can be reported to the host on request through the Device Statistics log as
defined in the ATA specification.
The Device Statistics log is a read-only GPL/SMART log located at read log address 0x04 and is
accessible using READ LOG EXT, READ LOG DMA EXT or SMART READ LOG commands.
The table below lists the Device Statistics supported by the Intel SSD 530 Series.
