Read-Intensive (RI) Enterprise SSD, around 1 DWPD

Read-Intensive Enterprise SSDs

Key takeaways

5,887 listings match this collection right now.
Because read-intensive needs the least spare area for wear leveling, it yields more usable capacity from the same raw NAND than a mixed-use or write-intensive drive at the same physical capacity point.
This class spans SATA, SAS and NVMe interfaces at the same endurance rating, so picking read-intensive still leaves the interface to match against the server's backplane and controller.
Read-intensive drives commonly use TLC or QLC NAND, trading per-cell write endurance for higher storage density than the SLC or MLC-class NAND used in write-intensive drives.

Read-intensive is the endurance class rated at roughly one full drive write per day over the warranty period. It is the right class for file and web serving, boot volumes and read-heavy databases, and the wrong one for logging or heavy OLTP.

How to choose solid state drives

Interface first: SATA drives work on a SAS backplane, SAS drives do not work on a SATA-only controller, and NVMe connects over PCIe lanes in U.2, U.3, M.2, E1.S or add-in-card form factors that are not interchangeable with each other. Then the endurance class the workload needs, stated as drive writes per day. Then whether the listing includes the hot-swap tray, which every listing name states.
