60 GB MLC SATA M.2 2242 Drive

This 60 GB internal SSD uses MLC flash and a SATA III 6 Gb/s interface in the M.2 2242 form factor. It targets compact systems such as Intel NUC units that need reliable storage in a small footprint. The drive weighs 5.4 g and measures 42 mm by 22 mm by 3.2 mm.

Thermals, Noise and Power Draw

With no moving parts the drive runs silently in normal use. Idle power draw is 0.27 W and active power draw is 1.97 W at 3.3 V. The operating temperature range is 0 °C to 70 °C and the storage range is -40 °C to 85 °C. Humidity tolerance spans 5 % to 95 %.

Sustained Load Behaviour

Under sustained workloads the controller manages heat within the 0 °C to 70 °C operating window without throttling. BCH ECC at 66 bits per 1 KB protects data integrity during long write sessions. MTBF is rated at 2,000,000 hours. Shock resistance is 50 G for 11 ms half-sine and vibration resistance is 3.1 G from 2 Hz to 500 Hz.
