Expert reviews and ratings96 While many are skeptical about QLC memory, we assure you that Intel has done a bang up job in creating the Intel SSD 600p. It boasts some very good performance results and comes with a 5-year warranty and AES 256-bit hardware encryption support. At $0.20 per GB, it is a great buy for most. Be warned though, if you need a lot of write endurance, don't skimp out. With 200TBW of endurance, our 1TB sample only has 1/6th the endurance of the 970 PRO and 1/3rd the endurance of most mainstream NVMe SSDs. By thessdreview.com on August 29, 2018 70 The Intel SSD 660p will shake up the low end of the NVMe market with very good performance at an unprecedented price, even though write speeds can drop precipitously to 100MBps when very large amounts of data are written to the drive, or when it begins to fill up. Note that the 512MB version offers significantly slower performance. By on August 08, 2018 75 The Intel SSD 660p may not be a consumer class SSD leader in terms of absolute performance, but it does offer some serious bang-for-the-buck. Intel has set the MSRP for the 512GB Intel SSD 660p at $99 and the 1TB model at only $199. Those prices equate to about $0.19 per gigabyte, which is among the lowest prices we've seen for any SSD, let alone a modern NVMe drive that's been tuned specifically for mainstream computing applications. And that's assuming they sell at MSRP -- many of Intel's drives have street prices below MSRP at the moment. By HotHardware on August 07, 2018 For as long as solid state drives have been a thing, Intel has been known for making some of the highest quality SSDs on the market. However, this usually came with a pretty hefty premium, like the 750 series when they first launched. Then, in August of... By Modders-Inc on September 18, 2018 If you have held off on switching over to NVMe solid-state storage due to the associated costs, times are certainly changing. This week Intel introduced their 660p SSD series that yields 512GB of NVMe storage for $99 USD or 1TB for $200 USD.The Intel... By Phoronix on August 10, 2018 As the first SSD with QLC NAND to hit our testbed, the Intel SSD 660p provides much-awaited hard facts to settle the rumors and worries surrounding QLC NAND. With only a short time to review the drive we haven't had time to do much about measuring the... By AnandTech on August 09, 2018 It's been ages since we reviewed a new client 2.5" HDD, but last time we did, the 2TB drive posted 4K random read IOPS of a little under 100, where we're looking at 60,000 with the 660p. And while the sequential tests we run today aren't exactly the same as they were with the HDDs, the 660p puts up large block sequential reads of 225MB/s and writes of 77MB/s where the HDD saw about 115MB/s and 110 MB/s respectively. So in terms of the market Intel is looking to address with the 660p, they hit the target successfully. The 660p is designed to fill a need at the mobile bulk storage end of the spectrum and continues the attack on 2.5" HDDs, who's days are clearly numbered. By StorageReview on August 08, 2018 Intel's SSD 660p is a bit of shock to the system. Not only is this NVMe drive the first Quad-Level Cell (QLC/4-bit) SSD on the market, which portends larger-capacity offerings, it's faster during everyday use, and far cheaper—$200 for 1TB—than even the... By Good Gear Guide on August 08, 2018 QLC NAND Flash has arrived and Intel is the first company to put a 4-bit, quad-level cell drive in our hands for testing. This is a great thing for consumers as this will help lower SSD prices and allow the introduction of more terrabyte-SSDs for the... By Legit Reviews on August 07, 2018 Intel has planted the QLC flag and has shown it to be good enough to displace TLC for most typical PC users. While QLC writes are slower than prior methods, the impact is effectively mitigated by the use of a large dynamic SLC cache. The SM2263 is... By PCPer on August 07, 2018 The Intel SSD 660p offers high capacity, solid performance in real-world workloads, and impressive power efficiency. With prices at just $0.20-per-GB, nothing on the market comes close to it in value, but our recommendation comes with a caveat. You... By Tom's Hardware on August 07, 2018 NVMe SSDs are finally going mainstream, and the days of having only one or two choices are happily behind us. With more than a dozen NVMe drives now released, including some that successfully flirt with budget pricing, if you have a system that supports... By PC Gamer on February 10, 2017 90 O SSD da Intel consegue competir com SSDs com o dobro de preço no mercadoAlém de acompanhar alguns dos SSDs mais rápidos do mercado atualmente, seu preço é algo a se considerar, pois entrega alta capacidade de armazenamento aliado à uma performance... 45 Intel SSD 660p offre alta capacità di archiviazione, solide prestazioni con i carichi reali e un'efficienza energetica impressionante. Con prezzi di appena 20 centesimi di dollaro al GB, ha un valore unico, ma state attenti se usate carichi pesanti e... How fast is Intel 660p NVMe?Moreover, it utilizes the PCIe NVMe 3.0 x4 interface that has a higher bandwidth when compared to SATA for sequential read and write speeds of up to 1800 MB/s and 1800 MB/s respectively. What is Intel SSD 660p series?The Intel SSD 660p is the first QLC-based client PCIe SSD in the industry, continuing Intel's leadership in flash cell technology and quality manufacturing. The SSD 660p finally fits low-cost and high-capacity—up to 2TB—into one drive. PCIe Performance at an Affordable Price. When was Intel 660p released?The Intel 660p was a solid-state drive in the M. 2 2280 form factor, launched on August 9th, 2018, that is no longer in production. It was available in capacities ranging from 512 GB to 2 TB. Does Intel 660p have DRAM cache?Intel uses an SMI SM2263 controller paired with a full 1GB DRAM cache and 1TB of Intel QLC NAND. This drive is similar to the Crucial P1, though notably the P1 uses half as much DRAM. |
