Five-drive kit for upgrades

This pack contains five 120 GB 2.5 inch SATA solid state drives built with 3D NAND and SLC cache. They are intended for consumers who want to refresh multiple laptops, desktops or ultra-slim notebooks at once.

7 mm height fits thin chassis

Each drive uses the standard 2.5 inch form factor at 7 mm thick, matching the drive bays found in most PCs and notebooks. The SATA III connector provides broad compatibility with existing SATA power and data cables.

SATA III caps real-world speed

The interface limits sequential reads to 500 MBps and writes to 420 MBps, so the drives cannot exceed those figures regardless of workload. Random 4 KB performance reaches 95000 read and 90000 write IOPS within the same ceiling.

Questions about this item

What practical speed limit does the SATA III interface impose on this 120GB drive?

The SATA III link caps real-world throughput at 6 Gb/s, so the drive's 500 MB/s read and 420 MB/s write ratings are the effective ceiling you will see.

Will the 7 mm 2.5" form factor fit my ultra-slim notebook?

Yes, the 7 mm (0.28 in) height matches the standard 2.5" bay used in most laptops, desktops and ultra-slim notebooks.

How do I install the SSD and what step do people often miss?

Connect the drive to a SATA data cable and a SATA power connector, then initialise and format the new volume in your OS — skipping the initialisation step leaves the drive invisible.
