Essential specifications at a glance
| Metric | Specification |
|---|---|
| Capacity | 256GB |
| Form factor | 2.5-inch |
| Interface | SATA, 6Gbit/s |
| Rated read speed | 550MB/s |

Faster everyday access
An SSD has a 0ms seek time and a stated access time of 0.1ms. This helps reduce delays when accessing stored files compared with slower drive access. The rated sequential speeds also make it suitable for everyday computing and general file storage.
For smaller file operations, the drive offers random 4KB read performance of 53,760 IOPS and write performance of 56,320 IOPS. Actual results depend on the system and workload.
Check your system’s drive bay
This is a 2.5-inch Serial ATA drive, not an NVMe SSD. Confirm your computer supports a 2.5-inch SATA drive before ordering. The drive is intended for PC and laptop use, and Windows and Linux operating systems are supported.
The package is blister packed. No storage drive adapter or screws are included, so check what your installation requires before beginning.
Monitor and maintain the drive
S.M.A.R.T. support helps compatible software report drive health information. TRIM support helps the operating system manage deleted data, while error-correcting code (ECC) supports data integrity.
The drive uses 3D TLC NAND and has a 100TBW endurance rating. Its three-year warranty offers added reassurance for a planned storage upgrade.
Check these points before ordering
- Confirm your PC or laptop has a compatible 2.5-inch SATA drive connection.
- Check that 256GB provides enough capacity for your files and applications.
- Confirm your operating system is Windows or Linux.
- Check whether you need to obtain mounting screws or an adapter separately.
