1 TB SATA SSD for desktops and laptops

This 2.5 inch SATA internal solid state drive delivers 1 TB of storage for PCs and notebooks that accept a 7 mm drive. It uses 3D NAND flash and a SATA III 6 Gb/s interface. The drive is backwards compatible with SATA II 3 Gb/s and SATA I 1.5 Gb/s ports. It supports Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, 7, Vista, XP, Server 2003, MAC OS 10.4 or later, and Linux 2.6.33 or later.

Thermals noise and power draw

With no moving parts the SSD runs silently and produces minimal heat during normal use. New generation power saving technology keeps consumption low, helping extend battery life in laptops. Sequential read speed reaches up to 530 MBps and write speed up to 480 MBps. The SLC cache boosts burst performance while wear levelling, garbage collection and ECC protect data integrity over an industry leading 1,000,000 hour MTBF.

Build fit and system impact

The 7 mm slim form factor fits a wide range of desktops and slimmer notebooks without needing a spacer. Only a standard SATA data cable and SATA power connection are required; cables, screws and brackets are not included. TRIM command support and S.M.A.R.T. monitoring let the operating system maintain peak speed and report drive health. The drive frees up the 2.5 inch bay for other storage or cooling upgrades.

Questions about this item

Will this 2.5 inch drive fit in my laptop that only accepts 7 mm height?

Yes, the drive is 7 mm (0.28") thick, matching the standard slim 2.5" bay used in most modern laptops.

Does the box include the mounting screws or a SATA cable I will need for a desktop install?

No, the package contains only the SSD itself; screws, cables and brackets must be sourced separately.

What real-world speed difference should I expect compared to my old mechanical hard drive?

Sequential reads reach 530 MB/s and writes 480 MB/s, roughly four times the throughput of a typical HDD, cutting boot and app load times.
