Intel 660p will use qlc memory to offer great features at a low price
Table of contents:
Intel debuted its 3D QLC NAND flash memory technology from the new 2.5-inch U.2 PCIe series DC SSDs, a move that comes shortly after Micron also debuted its 3D QLC memory with the 5120 ION. The next step will be the Intel 660p.
Intel 660p will offer an exceptional balance between price and performance
The Intel 660p will be Intel's first consumer SSD with an M.2 form factor and based on this advanced 64-layer 3D QLC memory technology . This Intel 660p will arrive in capacities of 512 GB, 1 TB and 2 TB and with a new controller capable of working with QLC technology without problems.
We recommend reading our post on the best SSDs of the moment SATA, M.2 NVMe and PCIe
The Intel 660p takes advantage of the entire PCI-Express 3.0 x4 interface and offers a level of performance very similar to the 700p, much more expensive. Sequential read speeds of up to 1800 MB / s, and up to 1100 MB / s are discussed in sequential data write. Intel 700p is only slightly faster at 1200MB / s write. The 512GB Intel 660p is expected to be priced at € 113.90, the 1TB variant priced at € 197.75 and the 2TB variant priced at € 391.43.
They are prices very similar to those of today's SATA SSDs, but with a much higher level of performance. QLC memory will be the key to this excellent price-performance ratio, offering enormous storage density. It seems that the arrival of QLC memory will be a new help for SSD prices to continue to plummet, excellent news. What do you expect from this new Intel 660p and its NAND QLC memory technology?
Samsung sm 951, ssd m.2 with great features
South Korean Smasung has announced its new Samsung SM951 SSD storage device with an M.2 interface with great features
Micron confirms the use of nand qlc memory in its future ssd
Micron has confirmed that it will use QLC memory technology to make new SSD drives with higher capacity than current ones.
Intel 660p ssd with qlc officially released. incredible price but less durable
The battle to see who offers faster, higher capacity SSDs at a lower price is on. After months of different information, the Intel 660p is the first QLC SSD in the consumer market, offering great capacity and speed at a knockdown price. Know your secret.
