  • 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.

Form Factor

The term form factor refers to the physical size of SSDs. The motherboard must support the form factor of the SSD in order for it to be installed.

M.2 (Type 2280)
The motherboard must support the form factor in order for the SSD to be installed on it. It is worth noting that M.2 drives are divided into those that use the SATA protocol and those that use PCI Express. Of the SSDs that use the PCI Express protocol, most also support NVMe technology, which allows them even faster speeds if supported by the motherboard.

Very fast for ngff! It fit into a case with two ngff SSD slots and created a 4GB SSD! However, the Western Digital firmware upgrade software crashes on Windows 11 and no matter what I tried, it doesn't work, so I can't see the firmware or upgrade it! A problem that seems to be common from what I've researched!

This disc was purchased for a specific purpose, not for use in a computer but in a camcorder for video recording. Unfortunately, I found out the hard way that the recording speed of the disc is not stable at all. While it starts at the speeds mentioned by the company, it quickly takes a sharp dive to quite low values. This was confirmed as the video recording in the camera was constantly interrupted after a few minutes, and then I checked it with a speed test where I found that the problem was indeed this. Other than that, everything is fine, but unfortunately for the work I needed it for, it could not serve me as it likely would fail for someone else who also needs fast and stable speed.
