Description
Designed for media storage, use as a boot drive, or as a replacement for an existing drive, the 250GB CS900 SATA III 2.5″ Internal SSD from PNY Technologies allows users to store and access up to 250GB of data. It is equipped with a SATA III 6 Gb/s interface that is compatible with SATA II 3 Gb/s and fits into your system’s 2.5″ / 7mm drive bay, providing load and access times for files and programs that are faster than those of a traditional spinning hard drive. In terms of speed, this drive offers sequential write speeds of up to 500 MB/s and sequential read speeds of up to 535 MB/s via its Triple-Level Cell (TLC) NAND flash memory. In addition to its enhanced data transfer rates, this drive also offers a life expectancy of 2 million hours MTBF, TRIM support (OS dependent), and S.M.A.R.T support.
With solid-state drive technology you benefit from load and access times for your files and programs that are faster than a conventional 7200 rpm hard drive. As SSDs have no moving parts, they are also more durable than traditional hard drives and are better protected against damage from drops and bumps. Having no moving parts also means that SSDs receive less wear and tear, as there are no read or write heads for the drive media to come into contact with. SSDs also help to deliver improved battery life and cooler operating temperatures. Supported operating systems include Windows, Mac, Linux, and Ubuntu. A 2.5mm spacer is also included, which allows this 7mm SSD to be used in 2.5″ / 9.5mm drive bays. Protection is provided by a limited 3-year warranty.

I purchased one recently to replace 5400rpm HDD. Improvement in performance is quite significant. I cannot provide any more information because I have been using it for only 2 weeks. So far I give it 5 stars

desktop works very fast with this

I have several of these SSDs. They work fine as system drives in multiple Windows 10 computers, and storage drives internally and in external drives. I don’t know that more expensive models could improve on it. The good pricing on them makes them unbeatable for me!

As I am typing these words, this is a very low cost SSD; even no-name SSDs have comparable prices. This isn’t going to be Samsung PRO SSD, but it doesn’t cost as much as one. The main disadvantage of a SSD at this price point is that its chance of failing is higher; as always, be prepared to recover should the SSD break down. The other disadvantage is that performance may be lower. In terms of speed, it runs quite quickly running Linux (CentOS 8); at no point did I feel the SSD was too slow. Then again, Linux is quite snappy with any hardware from the last 15 years, including older HDDs. For increasing the speed and capacity of an older system where the expense of a high-end SSD is not warranted, or for having a “how swap” SSD on standby to get running again should one’s main storage fail, this is perfect.

I have been using Samsung 500gb SSDs as system drives for my z840 workstation, but recently gave the PNY a chance and am very pleased. I like having spare drives like this around as I keep one for Windows and another for Linux. I also clone my drives before doing any complicated updates or installs (especially since I am very inexperienced with Linux). The 500gb size is perfect size to hold my OS, since all of my media is saved to a 4xTB NVME M.2 RAID. I highly recommend PNY 500gb SATA SSD

Works to upgrade older laptops/PCs to SSD

This is a great general purpose ssd, it has enough space for most things and it is fast enough so that few would notice. I can’t give it 5 stars only because there are faster M.2 drives but for the very reasonable price it is a perfect drive!
