240GB SATA SSD for consumer PCs

The Intel 530 Series SSDSC2BW240A4 is a 2.5-inch internal solid-state drive with a 240GB capacity. It connects over a SATA 3.0 6Gb/S interface and uses MLC memory components. The drive is built for consumer workloads such as operating system boots, application loading and general file storage.

Upgrade from mechanical hard drives

Replacing a traditional spinning disk with this SSD removes seek latency and cuts read latency to 80 µs and write latency to 85 µs. The jump is worth it when faster boot times, quicker application launches and silent operation matter more than maximum capacity. A MTBF of 1,200,000 hours and shock resistance of 1500 G at 0.5 msec add durability for mobile use.

Steady power draw under sustained load

Active power consumption stays at 140 mW while idle power drops to 55 mW, so thermal output remains low during extended transfers. The operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C supports continuous operation in compact chassis without throttling. Consistent latency figures indicate predictable performance across long write sessions rather than only in short bursts.
