mSATA 250 GB internal SSD

The Dogfish Technology mSATA-250GB is a 250 GB solid state drive in the mSATA form factor. It connects through a SATA III 6 Gb/s interface and uses 3D NAND flash with an SMI controller. The drive is built for consumer desktops and laptops that have an mSATA slot.

Suits mSATA slots only; not for M.2 or 2.5 inch bays

This drive fits systems with a dedicated mSATA connector measuring 30 by 50.9 millimetres. It will not work in M.2 keyed slots or standard 2.5 inch SATA bays. Buyers upgrading an older ultrabook or embedded board with mSATA support should verify the slot type before ordering.

Sequential read up to 500 MB/s

The controller delivers maximum sequential read speeds of 500 MB/s and maximum sequential write speeds of 450 MB/s over the SATA III link. These figures determine whether the drive meets the throughput needs of the target system.

Questions about this item

Does my laptop need a specific mSATA slot to use this 250GB drive?

Yes, the system must provide an mSATA socket measuring 30 by 50.9 millimetres that supports the SATA III 6 Gb/s interface.

Will this 250GB mSATA SSD work if I keep my older SATA II motherboard?

The drive is backward compatible with SATA II ports, though sequential speeds will be limited to the older 3 Gb/s link rate.

How can I verify the 250GB mSATA SSD is healthy after installation?

Use any SMART monitoring tool to check that the drive reports zero reallocated sectors and that the temperature stays within the 0 to 75 °C operating range.
