2.5-inch SATA SSD with 240GB capacity

The MSI SPATIUM S270 is a 2.5-inch internal solid state drive offering 240GB of storage. It connects via the SATA III interface and uses 3D NAND flash memory. The drive is designed for consumer workloads in laptops or desktops.

Suitable for SATA-based upgrades and replacements

This drive suits users upgrading a laptop or desktop that accepts a 2.5-inch SATA drive. It is not intended for systems that only provide M.2 or PCIe slots. Buyers needing higher capacities should consider larger models in the same series.

Sequential reads up to 500 MBps

The key performance figures are a maximum sequential read speed of 500 MBps and a maximum sequential write speed of 400 MBps. These speeds define the drive's responsiveness for operating system boot, application loading and file transfers.

Questions about this item

What does the 500 MBps sequential read figure mean once the drive is installed in a laptop?

The 500 MBps sequential read is the SATA III interface ceiling; in a laptop the drive will deliver that rate for large file transfers and boot sequences until the controller or thermal limits intervene.

How does the SATA III interface cap real-world performance on this SPATIUM S270?

SATA III limits the drive to 500 MBps read and 400 MBps write, so sustained copies never exceed those speeds regardless of the 3D NAND capability.

What does the 2.5 inch form factor need to fit inside a desktop or laptop?

The 2.5 inch form factor fits any standard drive bay or caddy that accepts a 7 mm SATA drive and uses the same data and power connectors as a laptop hard drive.
