Enhanced Power Loss Data Protection

The enhanced power loss data protection prepares the SSD for an unexpected power loss of the system by minimizing the amount of data forwarded through temporary buffers. It utilizes an integrated capability for power loss protection to provide the SSD firmware with sufficient energy to move data from the transfer buffer and other buffers into the NAND, thereby protecting system and user data.

Hardware Encryption

Hardware encryption is a data encryption that occurs at the drive level. This secures the data stored on the drive from unauthorized access.

High-Endurance Technology (HET)

The high-endurance technology in SSDs combines chip enhancements of Intel NAND flash memory and SSD system management techniques to improve the write cycles of the SSD. A write cycle is defined as the amount of data that can be written to an SSD over its lifespan.

Temperature Monitoring and Logging

Temperature monitoring and logging utilizes an internal temperature sensor to monitor and log air circulation and temperature within the device. The logged results can be retrieved via the SMART command.

End-to-End Data Protection

End-to-end data protection ensures the integrity of the stored data from the computer to the SSD and back.
