PUSKILL 2.5" SATA SSD 480GB

The PUSKILL 2.5 inch SATA internal SSD provides 480GB of flash storage for desktops, laptops, mini PCs and all-in-one systems. It uses the SATA 3.0 interface and is backward compatible with SATA 2.0. The drive must be initialised before first use.

Capacity and real-world headroom

The labelled capacity is 480GB; the usable space is approximately capacity multiplied by 0.93 due to the international standard where 1000 KB equals 1 MB. On a SATA 3.0 link the interface ceiling is 600MB/s, while a SATA 2.0 link caps at 300MB/s and SATA 1.5 at 150MB/s. Actual throughput varies with the host system, cable and software.

SATA 3.0 interface compatibility

This drive requires a SATA 3.0 port and cable to reach its specified interface ceiling of 6.0 Gb/s. It will operate on SATA 2.0 ports at the lower 3.0 Gb/s rate. The single specification that decides fit is the host SATA generation.

Questions about this item

Will the 480GB SATA drive work in a laptop that only has a SATA 2.0 port?

Yes, the drive is backward compatible with SATA 2.0 and will function normally, though maximum transfer speed will be limited to the 300MB/s ceiling of that interface.

How can I confirm the SSD is operating at full SATA 3.0 speed after installation?

Run a benchmark tool such as CrystalDiskMark on an empty drive using a SATA 3.0 cable and port; sequential reads should approach the 600MB/s interface limit.

Does the 2.5 inch 480GB package include a SATA data cable or a mounting bracket for a desktop bay?

The drive is supplied as a bare 2.5 inch unit; a SATA data cable and a 3.5 inch adapter bracket must be purchased separately if your chassis requires them.
