Intel 530 Series 80GB SATA SSD

The Intel 530 Series is an 80GB internal solid-state drive built for consumer platforms. It uses MLC memory components and a SATA III interface to replace mechanical storage in desktops, laptops and small-form-factor systems. The drive delivers reliable performance with low idle power consumption. Its compact design suits space-conscious computing upgrades.

Check your system before ordering

Verify that your device has a free SATA data port and a matching power connector. Confirm the operating system can recognise a SATA III drive and that a 2.5 inch 7mm drive bay or adapter is available. Ensure the motherboard BIOS supports AHCI mode for optimal operation. No additional driver installation is typically required for modern operating systems.

Build quality and daily use

The drive weighs 0.08 kilograms and measures 1.000 units in height within a 2.5 inch form factor. MLC memory components contribute to endurance during everyday read and write cycles. Solid-state construction removes moving parts, reducing noise and vibration in quiet environments. Standard SATA connectors allow straightforward installation in compatible drive bays or caddies.

Questions about this item

Does the Intel 530 Series 80GB SATA Internal SSD include a mounting bracket or SATA cable, or must I buy them separately?

The drive is supplied as a bare 2.5" unit weighing 0.08 kg with a 1.000 inch height; brackets and cables are not included and must be purchased separately.

The 530 Series lists 80GB capacity with MLC memory — is that the only version or are larger sizes available in this same series?

The 530 Series spans multiple capacities and form factors including M.2 and mSATA, but this specific model SSDSCKGW080A401 is the 80GB 2.5" SATA III MLC variant.

What real-world benefit does the SATA III interface give me on a typical desktop or laptop compared with an older SATA II port?

SATA III supports up to 6 Gb/s bandwidth so the 530 Series can deliver its full sequential read and write speeds, whereas a SATA II port would cap throughput at half that rate.
