The T10 PI model defines the contents of an additional 8bytes of information, increasing the sector size to 520 bytes. The additional bytes are used to store tags that can be used to verify the 512 bytes of data in the sector.
That's only one reference. You can find more.

I've always gone for Intel and Micron. Intel has really fallen off, but earlier generations of their SSDs had the most detailed specs I've ever seen for a storage product.

The standard I hold is that a user who cares enough about their data to use enterprise-grade drives, ECC memory, and mature software should have some reasonable degree of certainty that they're not getting silent data corruption. If that's not true (i.e. if there are links in the chain with no ECC or parity), then that would be worth knowing about. Maybe I'll actually enable T10 PI, since most of my hardware supports it (requires a reformat, though).
