Product Details

Capacity

3840 GB

Capacity

The golden ratio of cost and capacity for now is 500GB and 1TB.

For gaming or professional programs that require a lot of space for their installation, a capacity of at least 500GB is recommended. 

As an indication, a 1TB hard drive can hold about 250 thousand photos taken with a 12MP camera or 250 movies.

Communication Protocol

SATA III

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.

NVMe

No

NVMe

Communication template that enhances the performance and speed of SSDs.

The higher speeds offered by an NVMe drive are mainly applicable to demanding applications (high-resolution video processing, transferring large files, etc.) and are not necessary for simple everyday use.

Heatsink

No

Heatsink

The SSD is equipped with a heatsink to maintain low temperatures, ensuring better performance and more efficient heat dissipation in the SSD.

Compatible with PlayStation 5

No

Compatible with PlayStation 5

Compatible with PS5.

Cache Type

DRAM-less

Write Endurance (TBW)

7008 TB

Write Endurance (TBW)

Shows the total amount of data (in TB) that the SSD can write over its lifetime, according to the manufacturer’s specifications. A higher value means greater theoretical endurance for frequent data writes.

NAND Flash Type

TLC

NAND Flash Type

The type of flash memory used by the SSD. It affects the drive's durability, performance, and cost.

TLC

The most common option, offering a very good balance between performance, durability, and cost.

Dimensions

Form Factor

2.5''

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.

The higher speeds offered by an NVMe drive are mainly applicable to demanding applications (such as high-definition video processing, transferring large files, etc.) and are not necessary for everyday use.

2.5''

The most classic size of SATA SSD hard drive.

HDD hard drives in laptops are of this size, so upgrading with an SSD is the right choice.
