Drive Basics

This Mushkin Enhanced RAW Series drive is a 2.5 inch internal SSD with 120GB capacity. It connects through a SATA interface and uses 3D TLC flash memory controlled by a Silicon Motion SM2258XT controller. Sequential reads reach up to 500 MBps and writes up to 450 MBps.

Before You Buy

Check that your system has a free 2.5 inch drive bay and a spare SATA data and power connection. The drive operates between 0°C and 70°C and draws 0.08W idle or 2W active. It supports TRIM and DevSleep, so confirm your OS and motherboard enable those features.

Who It Fits

The 120GB size suits a boot drive or a secondary store for documents and light applications. Users needing space for large media libraries or modern game installs should look at higher-capacity models. The 1,500,000-hour MTBF and 1500G shock rating also make it a fit for mobile or rugged use.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the Mushkin Enhanced RAW Series 120GB drive and what must I buy separately?

The drive itself is included; a SATA data cable, a SATA power cable or adapter, and a 2.5" mounting bracket are not supplied and must be purchased if your system lacks them.

How do I decide between the RAW Series capacities when choosing this 120GB model?

The 120GB capacity suits a boot drive with a few core applications; select a larger RAW Series model only if you need more space for games or media libraries.

What does the 500 MBps sequential read figure mean once the drive is installed in my PC?

It represents the peak transfer speed for large, contiguous files over the SATA III link; real-world speeds will be lower for mixed workloads and depend on the host controller and cable quality.
