Timetec 512GB 2.5" SATA SSD

This Timetec internal solid state drive offers 512GB of storage in a 2.5-inch 7mm form factor. It uses 3D NAND flash and a SATA III interface to deliver sequential reads up to 530 MBps and writes up to 490 MBps. The drive suits desktops and laptops that accept a standard 2.5" SATA drive.

Compatibility checklist

Verify your system has a free 2.5-inch drive bay or caddy and a spare SATA data and power connection. The drive is backwards compatible with SATA II 3Gb/s and SATA I 1.5Gb/s ports. Supported operating systems include Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, 7, Vista, XP, Server 2003, macOS 10.4 or later, and Linux 2.6.33 or later.

Build integration

The slim 7mm height fits slimmer notebooks as well as standard desktop bays. No cables, screws or brackets are included in the pack. The drive supports TRIM, garbage collection, wear levelling, ECC and power saving features to maintain performance and extend lifespan. An industry-leading MTBF of 1,000,000 hours and MTTF of 1,500,000 hours indicate high reliability for long-term use.

Questions about this item

Does the 512GB drive come with mounting brackets or cables?

The package includes only the 2.5 inch 7mm SATA III SSD. Mounting brackets, screws and data or power cables must be purchased separately.

Which capacity should I choose for the best balance of speed and cost?

All capacities from 128GB to 2TB quote the same up to 550 MB/s read and 500 MB/s write figures, so the 512GB model gives a mid-range capacity at the same headline speed.

What does the up to 550 MB/s read figure mean when the drive is installed in my laptop?

That is the maximum sequential read speed over the SATA III 6 Gb/s link; real-world boot and application load times will be lower but still roughly four times faster than a mechanical hard drive.
