An Intel X25-M SSD Intel P3608 NVMe flash SSD, PCI-E add-in card An Intel mSATA SSD. On September 8, 2008, Intel began shipping its first mainstream solid-state drives (SSDs), the X18-M and X25-M with 80 GB and 160 GB storage capacities. [1] Reviews measured high performance with these MLC-based drives.
A size comparison of an mSATA SSD (left) and an M.2 2242 SSD (right) M.2, pronounced m dot two [1] and formerly known as the Next Generation Form Factor (NGFF), is a specification for internally mounted computer expansion cards and associated connectors.
A Mushkin 1TB 2280 NVMe SSD. 2280 is the most common size for NVMe SSDs. However, 2230 NVMe SSDs are becoming more common to save space in the system board. A SSSTC 256GB 2230 NVMe SSD. Since 2020, Dell (and others) started to use 2230 SSDs in their laptops instead of the more common 2280 size to save space.
EDSFF provides a pure NVMe over PCIe interface. One common way to provide EDSFF connections on the motherboard is through MCIO connectors. EDSFF SSDs come in four form factors: E1.L (Long) and E1.S (Short), which fit vertically in a 1u server, and E3.L and E3.S, which fit vertically in a 2u server. [2]
Intel published an NVM Express driver for Linux on 3 March 2011, [83] [84] [85] which was merged into the Linux kernel mainline on 18 January 2012 and released as part of version 3.3 of the Linux kernel on 19 March 2012. [86] Linux kernel supports NVMe Host Memory Buffer [87] from version 4.13.1 [88] with default maximum size 128 MB. [89]
A USB flash drive connects via USB and is not constrained by shape and size as a card is. [2] [11] In general, an SSD uses a relatively fast interface such as Serial ATA (SATA) or PCI Express (PCIe) paired with a logical device interface such as AHCI or NVM Express (NVMe).
