Capacity and audience

This 8TB SATA solid-state drive uses QLC memory to deliver very high capacity in a standard 2.5 inch form factor. It is aimed at desktop and laptop owners who need a single large volume for media libraries, project archives or general storage expansion.

Build and daily use

The drive connects through a regular SATA III port and fits any 2.5 inch bay or caddy without special brackets. Sequential reads reach 560 MB/s and writes 530 MB/s, while Intelligent TurboWrite uses a variable buffer to keep sustained performance steady during large transfers.

Compatibility check

Verify that your system has a free SATA data port and a matching power connector from the supply. The 2.5 inch height is the common 7 mm profile, so confirm the laptop or enclosure can accept that thickness before ordering. The rated endurance is 2880 TBW, which is double the previous 1440 TBW figure for this series.
