3. Contingut del paquet

Comproveu que el vostre paquet contingui els elements següents:

• Intel P3700 Series SSD (Model SSDPEDMD800G401)
• Documentation (e.g., Quick Start Guide, Warranty Information)
• Note: Additional mounting hardware or accessories may vary by reseller.

4. Configuració i instal·lació

The Intel P3700 Series SSD is available in various form factors, including a PCIe Add-in Card (AIC) and a 2.5-inch U.2 form factor. This manual primarily addresses the AIC installation. Ensure your system has a compatible PCIe slot (e.g., PCIe 3.0 x4 or higher) and sufficient physical clearance.

4.1. Physical Installation (PCIe Add-in Card)

1. Prepara el sistema: Power down your computer completely and unplug the power cord. Open the computer case.
2. Localitza la ranura PCIe: Identify an available PCIe slot (typically PCIe x4, x8, or x16) that is compatible with the SSD's form factor.
3. Treure la coberta de la ranura: Traieu la coberta metàl·lica de la ranura de la part posterior de la carcassa de l'ordinador corresponent a la ranura PCIe escollida.
4. Inseriu l'SSD: Carefully align the SSD's PCIe connector with the slot. Apply even, firm pressure to insert the card until it is fully seated in the slot. Secure the card with the retention clip or screw provided by your computer case.
5. Tanqueu la carcassa i engegueu-la: Close the computer case, reconnect the power cord, and power on the system.

4.2. Driver Installation and System Recognition

Modern operating systems often include native NVMe drivers. Upon first boot after installation, the operating system should detect the new SSD. If the drive is not immediately recognized or if you experience performance issues, you may need to:

• Check BIOS/UEFI Settings: Ensure that PCIe slots are enabled and configured correctly in your system's BIOS/UEFI.
• Install NVMe Drivers: Download and install the latest NVMe drivers from Intel's official support website or your operating system vendor.
• Inicialitzar i formatar: Use your operating system's disk management tools to initialize the new SSD and create partitions before use.

5. Instruccions de funcionament

The Intel P3700 Series SSD leverages Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) technology, designed to maximize the performance of PCIe-based SSDs. Once installed and configured, the SSD operates as a high-speed storage device within your system.

Característiques principals:

• High Endurance: Designed for demanding data center workloads with high read/write cycles.
• Power Loss Imminent (PLI) Technology: Protects data in transit during unexpected power loss events.
• AES 256-bit Hardware Encryption: Provides robust data security.
• End-to-End Data Protection: Ensures data integrity from the host to the NAND flash.
• Temperature Monitoring and Logging: Internal sensors monitor operating temperature for optimal performance and longevity.

For optimal performance, ensure your operating system and applications are configured to utilize high-speed storage effectively. Regular system updates are recommended to maintain compatibility and performance.

6. Manteniment

Solid State Drives generally require minimal user maintenance compared to traditional hard disk drives. However, the following practices are recommended:

• Actualitzacions de firmware: Periodically check Intel's official support website for firmware updates for your SSD. Firmware updates can improve performance, stability, and add new features.
• Supervisar l'estat de la unitat: Utilize SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) tools or Intel's SSD Toolbox software (if available) to monitor the health and lifespan of your SSD.
• Optimització del sistema operatiu: Ensure your operating system's TRIM command is enabled for SSDs to maintain performance over time. Avoid defragmenting SSDs, as this is unnecessary and can reduce their lifespan.
