High-performance internal SSD with support for high-speed PCI-E Gen3 x4 system interface and NVMe 1.3 protocol. It is the middle model of the Seagate FireCuda 510 product line, which includes devices from 500 GB to 2 TB, which are designed for use in high-performance gaming systems and basic or mid-range workstations. It features impressive I / O performance, high read / write speed (3450/3050 MB / s) and low latency.
The Seagate FireCuda 510 ZP1000GM30011 SSD is made in the form of a standard 2280 form factor M.2 module with one-sided mounting of components on a printed circuit board, which makes it possible to use such a drive in thin ultrabooks. The hardware basis of the device is the top eight-channel Phison PS5012-E12 controller, capable of simultaneously working with 8 data streams and equipped with a 1 GB DRAM buffer. It supports high-speed SLC caching in a dynamic buffer up to 14 GB. To store user data, high-quality 64-layer 3D TLC BiCS3 NAND flash memory manufactured by Toshiba is used. It is worth paying attention to the impressive guaranteed recording resource of 1300 TB (up to 710 GB of daily rewriting under a 5-year warranty).

Replenishment in the family
If earlier the line of Seagate FireСuda devices included only 2.5 and 3.5-inch SSHD hybrid drives, now it has been replenished with a full-fledged M.2 SSD — FireCuda 510. This is one of the fastest SSDs with PCI-E 3.0 x4 interface and volume 1 or 2 TB. Whereas the smaller (256 and 512 GB), slower and correspondingly cheaper versions of Seagate's M.2 SSDs were dubbed the BarraCuda 510.
Flagship controller
The heart of the FireCuda 510 (like the BarraCuda 510) is the Phison E12 controller. This is a flagship solution with two cores and eight channels, as well as support for external buffered RAM chips. Due to this, the FireCuda 510 sequential read and write speed of large files is 3450 and 3200 Mbps, respectively (at the peak speed of the PCI-E 3.0 x4 interface is 3500 Mbps).
virtual array
It goes without saying that such speeds will only last until the virtual SLC array (up to 28 GB) is exhausted, after which drawdowns will begin, and the disk will take a little time to restore its previous performance. The speed of random access to small 4K blocks can reach 485 – 620K IOPS (input-output operations per second). Only a few SSD models on the market can boast such a high result.
An investment for many years
I am glad that the FireCuda 510 is not only fast, but also hardy. Despite the use of 3D TLC flash memory in it instead of MLC (you won’t find the latter now with fire), the guaranteed rewriting resource is 1300 and 2600 TB for the 1 and 2 TB versions, respectively. The time between failures is claimed at the level of 1.8 million hours. Instead of the typical three-year warranty, the FireCuda 510 SSD is given an extended five-year warranty (for the younger BarraCuda 510 model, the warranty is exactly the same).
