  • Communication Protocol

    Most SSDs use SATA III or PCI Express.

    Almost all 2.5" SSDs connect via SATA III while most M.2 SSDs connect via PCI Express.


    PCI Express connection offers higher speeds, but this is mainly noticeable in demanding applications (high-resolution video processing, transferring large files, etc.) and is not necessary for everyday use.

    SATA III

    Modern hard drive connection standard.

    The majority of SSD hard drives use this standard. The motherboard must support it for the disk to operate at its maximum potential.

  • Write Speed

    Indicative size for the maximum speed of the hard disk during data recording. The larger the size, the faster the data recording.

    For an SSD that uses the SATA III protocol, the average recording speed is 300MB/s, while for one with NVMe it is 1200MB/s.

    These differences make sense in particularly demanding use cases (e.g. high-resolution video editing). For most users, the differences will not be noticeable.

  • Read Speed

    Indicative size for the maximum speed of the hard disk during data reading. The larger the size, the faster the data reading speed.

    An average reading speed for an SSD using the SATA III protocol is 600MB/s, while for one with NVMe it is 2000MB/s.

    These differences make sense in particularly demanding use cases (e.g. high-resolution video editing). For most users, the differences will not be noticeable.

    This review is about the capacity: 120 GB

    I have had it for over 4 years, even though I have put it through a lot of wear and tear and have formatted it several times, it is still in good condition, it is relatively fast, and for its price, it is great.

    After not even 2 months and less than 20-25 hours of total usage, on a computer that uses minimal requirement programs, the disk simply "gave up"...
    No reliability and no certainty, towards this disk (referring to the 240Gb)...
    Really, it's garbage!!!!!!

    This review is about the capacity: 480 GB

    The first one came DOA.
    The SMART statistics give false data, specifically the temperature is always 33c regardless of the season, and the "Lifetime writes" increase from 1 to 4gb per day whether it is being stored or not (even if you leave it in the BIOS). I do not recommend it for any reason as Crucial is at the same price and is definitely more reliable...
    If you buy the 128 for an old machine, it might be worth it, but the 480gb, simply no.

    This review is about the capacity: 960 GB

    I have such a disk with 480GB and I use it as an external disk on a smart TV for movies for a year now. I haven't encountered any issues so far.
    Update: 07-07-21. The disk is now being used as a second disk on a laptop. No problems so far.
