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.

Getting almost a terabyte of fast SSD storage for my OS, games, and other frequently used applications is important for building a gaming PC and this is a pretty good price for the size.

I plugged it in, the BIOS registered it, windows installed beautifully, and everything seems to run pretty snappy. I haven’t gotten to use it a lot but everything seems okay for now.

This M.2 works great and is a bargain at this price. This is NOT an NVME! So order it only if you need an M.2 Sata III.

This is my 3rd PNY CS900 SSD over the past 2 years. All have been good performers and completely reliable. I also own a Samsung 860 EVO 1TB, which performs =slightly= faster in Crystal Disk Mark, but the difference is not noticeable to the user. Attached photo shows results for the PNY 1TB (with Bitlocker enabled).
