240GB SATA internal SSD for everyday computing

This 2.5-inch drive uses a SATA III interface to deliver up to 545 MBps sequential read speed. It is designed for consumer desktops and laptops that need a responsive upgrade from mechanical storage. The Green series focuses on reliable performance for web browsing, application launches and system boot.

Sustained operation within low power limits

Average active power draw is 60 mW with maximum read and write operating power capped at 1,700 mW. Idle slumber consumption is 26 mW and DEVSLP drops to 10 mW. The drive is rated for an operating range of 0°C to 70°C and an MTTF of up to 1.0M hours, indicating steady behaviour during extended sessions.

Verify 2.5-inch 7mm bay and SATA III port

The unit measures 7.00 mm in height, 69.85 mm in width and 100.50 mm in depth, so confirm your chassis or laptop can accept a 7 mm thick 2.5-inch drive. A spare SATA data connector and SATA power connector are required. The drive carries shock resistance of 1,500G at 0.5 msec and vibration ratings of 5.0 gRMS operating and 4.9 gRMS non-operating.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 2.5" 240GB SATA III drive draw when my laptop runs it all day?

It uses 60 mW average active power, 1,700 mW max read or write, and drops to 26 mW in slumber or 10 mW in DEVSLP, so battery life stays long during typical workloads.

What does my desktop need to install this 2.5" 240GB SATA III SSD?

A 2.5" drive bay or bracket, a SATA data cable, a SATA power connector from the PSU, and a motherboard with a SATA III port.

Will this 2.5" 240GB SATA III SSD work reliably in my older laptop that only has SATA II ports?

Yes, the SATA III interface is backward compatible with SATA II, so the drive will function at the slower port speed while keeping its 1.0M-hour MTTF and 1,500G shock rating.
