Overview
The default answer for a SATA data drive. 560/530 MB/s at the interface ceiling, a full DRAM cache for consistent latency, and 600 TBW over five years. When you need bulk storage on SATA rather than an M.2 slot, this is the safe, unexciting choice.

- Dale V.May 20, 2025Great drive, SATA is the limit
Nothing wrong with it, but remember SATA tops out near 550 MB/s regardless. For an OS drive get NVMe; for data this is ideal.
- Sana M.Jan 9, 2025Reliable bulk storage
Dropped it in as my game and project drive. SATA speeds are fine for anything not needing NVMe. Rock solid so far.
- Kim T.Nov 14, 2024Steady and dependable
TLC with DRAM, five year warranty, and it just works. Used it to revive an older build and everything feels quick again.
- Roy K.Jul 18, 2024The default SATA data drive
For a mass-storage 2.5 inch this is the answer. Full DRAM cache keeps latency consistent and 600 TBW is plenty. Holds 560 MB/s reads.
