Dogfish Shark 1TB SATA SSD

The Dogfish Shark 1TB SATA SSD is a 2.5 inch internal solid state drive built for desktops and laptops. It uses 3D NAND flash and a SMI controller behind a SATA III 6Gb/s interface. The drive targets everyday computing, OS boot and bulk storage upgrades.

Sustained workload behaviour

Under continuous operation the drive delivers up to 540MB/s sequential read and 500MB/s sequential write. Built‑in ECC, bad‑block management, garbage collection and TRIM keep write performance stable over long sessions. DevSleep lowers power draw during idle periods.

SATA III interface limits

The SATA III link caps throughput at 6Gb/s, so real‑world speeds cannot exceed the 550MB/s read and 400MB/s write ceiling of the bus. The drive operates from 0°C to 70°C and survives storage from -45°C to 85°C at up to 95% humidity. MTBF is rated at 1,000,000 hours.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 1TB SATA III drive draw during all-day use?

The drive supports DevSleep ultra low power state to reduce consumption when idle.

What does my laptop or desktop need to run this 2.5" 1TB SATA SSD?

A free 2.5" bay with SATA III 6Gb/s interface and 7 mm clearance for the 6.8 mm drive height.

Will this SATA III SSD work with my older SATA II motherboard?

Yes, the SATA III interface is backward compatible with SATA II ports, though sequential speeds will be limited to the older link.
