Drive identity

The PNY CS900 is a 250GB 2.5" SATA solid state drive built with 3D NAND flash. It serves as a direct replacement for a mechanical hard drive in a laptop or desktop, delivering faster boot sequences and quicker application launches.

Fit and alternatives

The drive suits users who want a simple capacity boost on a system that only offers a 2.5" SATA bay. Anyone whose motherboard provides an M.2 slot with PCIe support should consider a different drive that can use that faster interface.

Sustained behaviour

Sequential throughput reaches 535 MB/s on reads and 500 MB/s on writes, and the SATA link caps transfer rates at that level during long copy jobs. With no moving parts the drive runs cool and draws minimal power, so thermal throttling does not appear under continuous workloads.

Questions about this item

Does my laptop or desktop need a 2.5-inch SATA bay to install the CS900 250GB SSD?

Yes, the drive is a 2.5-inch form factor with a SATA III interface and 7.00mm height, so it fits any standard 2.5-inch SATA bay in a laptop or desktop.

Will the CS900 250GB SSD work if my motherboard only has SATA II ports?

Yes, the drive is backwards compatible with SATA II 3GB/sec, so it will operate on older SATA II ports at the port's maximum speed.

How can I verify the CS900 250GB SSD is performing as intended after installation?

Run a sequential read/write benchmark; the drive should reach up to 535 MBps read and up to 500 MBps write, and you should notice faster boot times and quicker application launches.
