500GB SATA 2.5" Internal SSD

The Gigastone 500GB SATA III 2.5" SSD uses 3D NAND with SLC cache to deliver sequential read speeds up to 520 MB/s and write speeds up to 480 MB/s. It is designed as a direct replacement for traditional hard drives in desktops, laptops and ultra-slim notebooks. The 7mm form factor fits standard 2.5" drive bays.

Check SATA III Port and 7mm Bay

Verify that your system has a free SATA III 6Gb/s port and a 2.5" drive bay that accepts a 7mm (0.28 inch) height drive. The drive draws a maximum of 4.0W active and 30 mW idle, so ensure your power supply can provide a SATA power connector. No additional heatsink is required or included.

Sustained Performance and Endurance

Under sustained workloads the drive maintains random 4KB read performance of 95000 IOPS and write performance of 90000 IOPS. It is rated for 256 TBW and an MTBF of 1,500,000 hours, indicating consistent operation over long periods. Shock and vibration resistance further support reliability during continuous use.

Questions about this item

Does the 2.5 inch 7mm drive come with a mounting bracket or SATA cable?

The drive is a bare 2.5 inch 7mm SATA SSD; mounting brackets and SATA data or power cables are not included and must be sourced separately.

Should I pick the 500GB model or a different capacity for a typical OS plus apps install?

At 500GB with 256TBW endurance and 3D NAND, this capacity suits a primary boot drive holding the operating system and everyday applications.

Will I actually see the 520 MB/s read speed once the SSD is installed in my laptop?

The 520 MB/s figure is the SATA III interface ceiling; real-world throughput depends on the host controller, cable quality and workload, but sequential reads approach that limit on modern SATA ports.
