Overview
This document describes the specifications and capabilities of the Intel® Solid-State Drive (SSD)
Data Center P3700 Series.
P3700 Series is a PCIe Gen3 SSD architected with the new high performance controller interface – NVMe
(Non-Volatile Memory express) delivering leading performance, low latency and Quality of Service. Matching
the performance with world-class reliability and endurance, P3700 Series offers a range of capacity – 400GB,
800GB, 1.6TB and 2TB in both Add-In card and 2.5-inch form factor.
With PCIe Gen3 support and NVMe queuing interface, the P3700 Series delivers excellent sequential read
performance of up to 2.8GB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 2.0GB/s. P3700 Series delivers very high
random read IOPS of 460K and random write IOPS of 175K for 4KB operations. Taking advantage of the direct path
from the storage to the CPU by means of NVMe, P3700 Series exhibits low latency of less than 20 μs for sequential
access to the SSD.
P3700 Series also includes High Endurance Technology (HET), which combines NAND silicon enhancements and
SSD NAND management techniques to extend SSD write endurance up to 10 drive writes per day for 5 years.
The 2.5-inch P3700 Series takes advantage of the 8639 connector and provides
hot-pluggable removal and insertion providing in-service replacement options.
P3700 Series includes these key features:
 Consistently High IOPS and throughput
 Sustained low latency
 High Endurance Technology (HET)
 Variable Sector Size and End-to-End data-path protection
 Enhanced power-loss data protection
 Power loss protection capacitor self-test
 Out of band management
 Thermal throttling and monitoring

Fall time needs to be equal or better than minimum in order to guarantee full functionality of enhanced power loss
management.
The drive must be powered off for at least 500msec before powering on.
Measured during initial power supply application. Typically this will be seen within 2 seconds of initial power up. Inrush
specified for 12V and 3.3V supply, not the 3.3Vaux.
Note: 3.3Vaux is optional, not needed for power up or functionality. 3.3Vaux is needed for accessing VPD page
by means of SMBUS for both form factors.

Operating temperature implies ambient air temperature under defined airflow in Tables 12 and 13.
0-55o C is for airflow from the server towards the card and 0-40o C is for airflow into the server.
Please contact your Intel representative for details on the non-operating temperature range.
Temperature gradient measured without condensation.
Shock specifications assume the SSD is mounted securely with the input vibration applied to the drive-mounting
screws. Stimulus may be applied in the X, Y or Z axis. Shock specification is measured using Root Mean Squared (RMS)
value.
Vibration specifications assume the SSD is mounted securely with the input vibration applied to the drive-mounting
screws. Stimulus may be applied in the X, Y or Z axis. Vibration specification is measured using RMS value.

Reliability Specifications
Intel SSD DC P3700 Series meets or exceeds SSD endurance and data retention requirements as specified in the
JESD218 standard. Reliability specifications are listed in the following table.
Table 15: 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 nonrecoverable 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 1017 bits read
Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF)
Mean Time Between Failures is estimated based on Telcordia*
methodology and demonstrated through Reliability Demonstration
Test (RDT).
2 million hours
Data Retention
The time period for retaining data in the NAND at maximum
rated endurance.
Endurance Rating
The number of drive writes such that the SSD meets the
requirements according to the JESD218 standard. Endurance rating
verification is defined to establish UBER <1E-16 at 60% upper
confidence limit.
3 months power-off retention once SSD
reaches rated write endurance at 40° C
400GB: 7.3 PBW
800GB: 14.6 PBW
1.6TB: 29.2 PBW
2.0TB: 36.5 PBW
(10 drive writes/day*)
Note: Petabytes Written (PBW). Refer to JESD218 standard table 1 for UBER, FFR and other Enterprise SSD
requirements.
2.7
Temperature Sensor
P3700 Series has an internal temperature sensor with an accuracy of +/-2C over a range of -10C to +85C which can
be monitored using NVMe Health Log.
For more information on sensor reading see SMART attributes section. In addition, drive will provide out of band
access to temperature by means of SMBUS. The sensor has an accuracy of +/- 3C over a range of -20C to 125C.
SMBUS temperature sensor will not be reported in NVMe Health Log.
2.8
Power Loss Capacitor Test
P3700 Series supports testing of the power loss capacitor, which can be monitored using SMART attribute critical
warning in log page identifier 02h, byte 0, bit 4.
2.9
Hot Plug Support
2.5-inch form factor will support surprise hot plug feature in capable platforms and OSs. P3700 Series supports
hot insertion and removal and surprise hot insertion by means of presence detect and link-up detect. On surprise
hot removal during IOs, P3700 Series will ensure the integrity of already committed data on the media and commit
acknowledged writes to the media.

Out of Band Management (SMBUS)
Intel SSD DC P3700 Series provides out of band management by means of SMBUS interface. This requires 3.3V
Auxiliary voltage. SMBUS accesses a VPD page as listed in Appendix B through address 0X53.
Temperature sensor is accessed through address 0x1B. For temperature sensor access, temperature can be read by
the BMC (base) using Read Temperature Data Register (0x05) by means of SMBUS 0x1B. Bits [11:0] return raw
ambient temperature.
Host may also see 0x66 address in a bus scan. This is only used for write protecting the EEPROM during
manufacturing.
Note: In certain tools the address for the VPD and temperature sensor will appear as 0xA6 and 0x36 respectively,
due to bit shift.
2.11
Variable Sector Size Support
P3700 Series supports 512, 520, 528, 4096, 4104, 4160 and 4224 bytes of sector size. P3700 Series will also
support DIF as specified in NVMe 1.0 specification. Host sector sizes supporting DIF are 512 bytes and 4096 bytes
with a PI (Protection Information)
of 8 bytes.
In terms of protection information action (PRACT), bit 29 of DWORD12 in READ/WRITE command should not be
equal to 1. Device only supports PRACT=0 implying protection information is passed
to the SSD and checked by the SSD.

NOTES:
 SMCLK and SMDAT routes to an internal EEPROM which contains Vital Product Data (VPD).
 PRSNT_N is kept open by the P3700 Series.
 IfDet_N is grounded by P3700 Series.
 DualPortEn_N pin should be left un-connected or un-driven by the system to enable single port operation with
all 4 lanes. If un-connected, P3700 Series will pull it high. However, if the pin is asserted by the system (driven
low by storage backplane), then P3700 Series will be configured as x2 lanes.
 P11 is used for activity. When idle, logic level is low (LED Solid On). During IO activity and formatting,
pin toggles 250msec high, 250msec low signal.
 P3700 Series only uses REFCLK0+ and REFCLK0- as reference clock pair.
 P3700 Series only uses PERST0# as a fundamental reset.
 3.3Vaux is only needed during SMBUS access to the VPDROM.

Temperature Sensor Read Out
Register 0x05 on address 0x1B contains the temperature information for the latest readout. Measured temperature
is captured by bit 12 to bit 0. Data format is two’s complement. Bit12 represents sign value, bit11 presents 128 ° C
and bit0 represents 0.0625° C. Following table gives an example of the read out.
