Intel SSD DC Family P3600 for PCIe series works perfectly Intel Xeon processors with fast, unwavering data streams. Servers now can support more users simultaneously, compute on larger data sets, and address high-performance computing at lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) with mid-endurance for mixed workloads. It offers a range of capacity options—800GB, 1.2TB, 1.6TB and 2TB—all in a 2.5-inch form factor. NVMe form factor is also available.
The Intel SSD DC Family for PCIe brings extreme data throughput directly to Intel Xeon processors with up to six times faster data transfer speed than 6 Gbps SAS/SATA SSDs. The consistently amazing performance provides fast, unwavering data streams directly to Intel Xeon processors making server data transfers efficient. SSD performance consistency provides scalable throughput when multiple SSDs are unified into a single storage volume. The massive storage bandwidth increase feeds Intel Xeon processor systems giving data center servers a performance boost.
Intel SSD DC Family for PCIe devices are based on Intel-developed controller, firmware, and leading manufacturing process NAND flash memory. Rigorous qualification and compatibility testing ensures a highly reliable SSD.
Intel's product line enables extensive system compatibility, completes numerous industry standard compliance certifications, and delivers Intel drivers, supporting industry driver development. The 2.5-inch form factor with hot-swap capability provides convenient front panel serviceability allowing quick, uninterrupted installation. NVMe form factor is also available.
Pros: seems to be working correctly, read performance latency seems to be equal to the client 750, write latency under high load is better
Cons: sure, this is older technology compared to Optane and Samsung 983 ZET, but works fine with StarTech U.2 to PCIe adapter
Overall Review: ordered first one 2 weeks ago with free shipping, arrived today (13 days, may have been storm or storm aftermath related). ordered another 4 days ago with expedite and 2-3 day shipping - should arrive today. Would be really nice if someone would make a PCIe x8 adapter for 2 U.2's or x16 for 4 SSDs, would accept a cabled solution
