FANXIANG S101Q 512GB 2.5" SATA SSD

The FANXIANG S101Q is a 512GB internal solid state drive built in a 2.5 inch form factor with a SATA III interface. It uses 3D NAND QLC flash and an SLC cache to deliver sequential reads up to 560 MBps and writes up to 490 MBps. The drive measures 7.00mm in height and 70.00mm in width, fitting standard 2.5 inch bays in laptops and desktops.

Suits HDD replacement on SATA platforms

Ideal for users replacing a mechanical hard drive in a SATA-based laptop or desktop who want faster boot, app load and file transfer. The drive supports garbage collection, wear-levelling, ECC, TRIM and S.M.A.R.T. for reliability, and is rated for 160TB written with a 1,500,000 hour MTBF. It is not suited for workloads that demand sustained high write throughput or the lower latency of a PCIe-attached drive.

Deciding spec: SATA III 6Gb/s interface

The SATA III 6Gb/s interface caps maximum throughput at the SATA bus limit, so the 560 MBps read and 490 MBps write figures are the ceiling for this drive. If your system has a 2.5 inch SATA bay and you need a simple drop-in upgrade from a hard drive, the interface matches; if your motherboard offers an M.2 PCIe slot, a different drive type would be required to exceed these speeds.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the FANXIANG S101Q 512GB and do I need to buy a SATA cable or mounting bracket separately?

The drive itself is supplied; a SATA data cable and any 2.5" mounting bracket or caddy required by your chassis are not included and must be sourced separately.

The S101Q series lists capacities from 256GB to 4TB — why choose the 512GB model?

The 512GB capacity delivers 560 MB/s read and 490 MB/s write with 160 TBW endurance, a practical balance for an OS drive plus everyday applications.

The box says "up to 560 MB/s" — what does that actually mean once the drive is installed in my laptop?

In a SATA III 6 Gb/s slot you will see sequential reads near 560 MB/s and writes near 490 MB/s; real-world boot and app-load times are limited by the SATA interface ceiling.
