2.6 Reliability The Intel® SSD 530 Series meets or exceeds SSD endurance and data retenti on r equirements as
specified in the JESD218 specification.
Table 10: Reliability Specifications
Parameter Value
Uncorrectable Bit Error Rate (UBER)
Uncorrectable bit error rate will not exceed one sector in the specified
number of bits read. In the unlikely event of a non-recoverable read error,
the SSD will report it as a read failure to the host; the sector in error is
considered corrupt and is not returned to the host.
< 1 sector per 1016 bits read
Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF)
Mean Time Between Failures is estimated based on Telcordia*
methodology and demonstrated through Reliability Demonstration Test
(RDT).
≥ 1.2 million hours
Minimum Useful Life/Endurance Rating
The SSD will have a minimum useful life based on a typical client workload
assuming up to 20 GB of host writes per day.
5 years
Insertion Cycles
Maximum insertion/removal cycles on 2.5 inch port
250 insertion/removal cycles
Hot Plug insertion and removal is supported in the prese nce of a proper connector and appropriate
operation system, as described in the SATA 3.0 specification.
This product supports asynchronous signal recovery and issues an unsolicited COMINIT when first
mated with a powered connector to guarantee reliab le detection by a host system without hardware
device detection.
