SanDisk SSD PLUS 480GB SATA drive

The SanDisk SSD PLUS 480GB is a 2.5-inch internal solid state drive built for everyday computing. It connects through a standard SATA III interface and fits laptops or desktops with a 7mm drive bay. The drive uses MLC memory and includes a 64MB DRAM cache to help with burst workloads. It is designed for consumers who want a straightforward storage upgrade without changing their existing hardware.

480GB capacity with 535 MB/s read and 445 MB/s write

The 480GB capacity provides room for the operating system, core applications and a working set of files. Sequential reads reach up to 535 MB/s and writes up to 445 MB/s over the SATA III link, so boot times, application launches and file copies feel noticeably quicker than a mechanical drive. Heavy sustained writes or large media libraries will eventually hit the interface ceiling, and the 64MB cache can only absorb short bursts before the native NAND speed takes over.

0°C to 70°C operating range with no moving parts

Because the drive has no moving parts it runs silently and draws little power in normal use. The rated operating range spans 0°C to 70°C, so it stays within safe limits inside typical laptop or desktop chassis without extra cooling. Shock resistance is rated at 1500G and vibration resistance at 4.9 gRMS (7-800 Hz) and 5 gRMS (10-2000 Hz), meaning the drive tolerates everyday knocks and transport without data loss.

Questions about this item

Will this 7.00mm SanDisk SSD PLUS 480GB fit the 2.5-inch bay in my older laptop?

The drive uses the standard 2.5-inch form factor with a 7.00mm height, matching the SATA interface found in most laptops from the last decade.

How can I verify the SanDisk SSD PLUS 480GB is delivering its rated 535 MBps read and 445 MBps write speeds after installation?

Run a benchmark tool such as CrystalDiskMark using a 1GB test file on a SATA III port; results should approach the sequential figures under light load.

Does the SanDisk SSD PLUS 480GB box include a SATA data cable or a 2.5-to-3.5-inch bracket for desktop mounting?

The package contains only the bare 2.5-inch drive; cables and mounting brackets must be sourced separately.
