Two-drive kit for desktops and laptops

This package contains two 512 GB internal solid-state drives built for everyday computing and gaming. Each drive uses a standard 2.5 inch form factor with a 7 mm height that fits most laptops, desktops and ultra-slim notebooks. The SATA interface provides broad compatibility with existing SATA III ports on PCs and PlayStation 4 consoles.

Replaces mechanical hard drives

The drives serve as direct replacements for traditional HDDs, delivering sequential read speeds up to 540 MB/s and write speeds up to 500 MB/s. Random 4 KB performance reaches 95,000 read IOPS and 90,000 write IOPS, cutting boot and load times dramatically. The upgrade is worthwhile when faster system responsiveness and quieter operation matter more than maximum throughput.

Limited by the SATA III interface

The SATA III 6 Gb/s link caps sustained transfers around 540 MB/s regardless of the 3D NAND and SLC cache technology inside. Endurance is rated at 256 TB written with a 1.5 million hour MTBF, suitable for typical consumer workloads. For workloads that demand higher bandwidth, a different interface would be required.

Questions about this item

Does the 2.5-inch 7mm form factor fit my laptop's drive bay?

Yes, the 2.5-inch drive has a 7mm (0.28 inch) height that fits standard laptop and desktop bays, including ultra-slim notebooks.

How do I install the SATA III SSD, and what step is often missed?

Connect the SATA data and power cables, then initialise the new 512GB volume in Disk Management — the step many skip before the OS can use it.

When will the 3D NAND drive need replacement based on write endurance?

The 256TB terabytes-written rating and 1,500,000-hour MTBF indicate a long service life; typical consumer workloads reach that limit after many years.
