The DC P3320/DC P3520 and SSD DC D3600/DC D3700
Following the launch of its Xeon E5-2600 v4 Broadwell-EP CPUs, Intel also unveiled two new datacenter SSD lineup as well, including the SSD DC P3320 and DC P3520 and SSD DC 3600 and DC 3700.
The new SSD DC P3320 and DC P3520 are actually the first SSDs from Intel that will be based on 3D NAND while the SSD DC 3600 and DC 3700 are first SSDs with dual ports.
Based on a PCIe 3.0 x4 interface with NVMe protocol, the SSD DC P3320 is aimed at read-intensive applications for cloud storage and data analytics. Available in 450GB, 1.2TB and 2TB capacities, the new SSD DC P3320 offers sequential read and write performance of up to 1,600MB/s and 1,400MB/s while 4K random read and write performance peaks at 365K and 22K IOPS. The 450GB version will be available in U.2 and 2.5-inch form-factors while the 1.2TB and 2TB will be also available in HHHL add-in card form-factor as well.
Unfortunately, Intel didn't share any details regarding the DC P3520 SSD lineup but did note that these will bring "significant performance and latency improvements over the DC P3320." These improvements target storage virtualization and web-hosting environments, but we will wait for some official details from Intel.
As noted, both the new SSD DC P3320 and DC P3520 are abased on 32-layer 3D NAND flash and should replace Intel's earlier available DC P3500 series SSDs.
In addition to the DC P3320 and DC P3520 SSDs, Intel also unveiled its newest dual-port DC D3600 and DC D3600 series SSDs with dual-port support. Aimed at storage systems in applications like online transaction processing that demand 24/7 accessibility and failover recovery, the new DC D3600 and DC D3700 SSD series use PCIe 3.0 interface with NVMe 1.2 protocol and will be available only in U.2 and 2.5-inch form-factors.
The DC D3700 SSD series will be available in 800GB and 1.6TB capacities and offer sequential read and write performance of up to 2,100 and 1,500MB/s with random 4K read and write of up to 470K and 95K IOPS.
the DC D3600 SSD series will be available in 1TB and 2TB capacities and have similar performance with sequential read and write reaching up to 2,100MB/s and 1,500MB/s while 4K random performance is set at 470K/30K IOPS.
Unfortunately, Intel did not talk about availability or the price for these new datacenter SSDs and only noted that these should come later this year.
