HP 480GB SATA SSD with Smart Carrier

This HP MK000480GWCEV is a 480GB solid-state drive built for desktops and servers that accept a 2.5" SATA device. It arrives as a bare drive fitted with a Smart Carrier tray for tool-less mounting in compatible bays.

SATA 6.0Gb/s practical limits

The SATA 6.0Gb/s interface caps sequential throughput at the bus ceiling, so sustained speeds will not exceed that boundary. Random read and write performance is also constrained by the SATA protocol rather than the flash itself.

Check your setup before ordering

Verify the system has a free 2.5" drive bay or a 3.5" adapter and a spare SATA data plus power connector. Confirm the chassis or backplane supports the Smart Carrier latch mechanism for secure installation.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 480GB model or a larger capacity?

The 480GB capacity suits typical OS and application installs; choose a larger drive only if you store extensive media or large project files locally.

What does the 6.0Gb/s transfer rate deliver in daily use?

The 6.0Gb/s SATA link enables sequential reads and writes up to the drive’s internal limits, cutting boot and load times versus mechanical disks.

Will the SATA 6.0Gb/s interface work with my motherboard’s SATA III ports?

Yes, the drive connects to any standard SATA III port and operates at the full 6.0Gb/s link speed supported by the controller.
