Capacity and audience

The Samsung 860 QVO 1TB is a 2.5 inch internal solid state drive built for everyday consumer workloads. It connects through a SATA III interface and uses 3D NAND memory to deliver 1TB of storage in a 7mm height package.

Sustained write behaviour

Sequential write speeds reach up to 520 MBps while random write performance at QD32 hits 89,000 IOPS. The drive is rated for 360 TBW, indicating how much data can be written over its service life before endurance limits are reached.

Thermals and power in normal use

Operating temperature ranges from 0°C to 70°C so the drive stays within spec inside typical desktop or laptop chassis. With no moving parts it runs silently and draws only the power required by the SATA connection during active and idle states.

Questions about this item

How hot does the 860 QVO 1TB get during sustained use?

The drive is rated for an operating range of 0°C to +70°C and has no moving parts, so it runs silently with minimal heat output under typical workloads.

What connection and bracket does my system need for this 2.5" SATA drive?

A standard SATA data cable, a SATA power connector from the PSU, and a 2.5" drive bay or 3.5" adapter bracket are required for installation.

Will the 860 QVO 1TB work on an older motherboard with only SATA II ports?

Yes, the SATA III interface is backward compatible with SATA II, so the drive will function at the port's maximum speed of 3 Gb/s.
