Intel 670p SSD

PROS

• Good everyday performance.

• Single-sided design will fit nicely into thin-and-light

laptops.

• Nice long five-year warranty.

CONS

• Drops to less than 320Mbps writing off cache.

• Stingy 185TBW per 512GB rating.

BOTTOM LINE

The Intel 670p is a good overall drive, posting competitive performance other than relatively slow off-cache performance. Our only question is why the company rates the drive for far fewer terabytes written (TBW) than the competition.
