Is the Pro1500 SSD series suitable for 24/7 live video recording and playout?

[gyank]

Hi,

i'm trying to find the right drive for a live video recording (about 70Mbps) 24/7 and playout at the same rate simultaneously?

i guess the rates are OK, but the question is how long will this drive last(this is 24/7)?

This is roughly 700Gb/day write and 700Gb/day read.

is that feasible?

Thanks a lot!

Hi gilyn, we appreciate your interest in Intel® SSD products.

The transfer rate is not a problem for the https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/product-specifications/ssd-pro-1500... Intel® SSD Pro 1500 but considering the proposed daily workload (700GB) you may probably want to take a look at the http://download.intel.com/newsroom/kits/ssd/pdfs/Intel_SSD_DC_S3700_Product_Specification.pdf Intel® DC S3700 which can stand ten drive writes per day for five years.

I hope this gives you the information you are looking for.

Thanks joe,

i've gone over the spec and it looks good.

by "ten drive writes per day" you mean that for example a 100GB drive from this series can stand 1000GB per day for 5 years? 200GB drive can stand 2000GB per day for 5 years and so on?

That is correct.
