Description
Designed for media storage, use as a boot drive, or as a replacement for an existing drive, the 480GB CS900 SATA III 2.5″ Internal SSD from PNY Technologies allows users to store and access up to 480GB 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 550 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 use this store games, photos, videos, anything that needs fast access. I wouldn’t recommend this a main drive due to lack of DRAM cache. If you don’t do a lot of R/W to your drives this is perfect.

So far so good! Bought this to upgrade my current 240 gb drive. The price seemed right. l, so I used Macrium Reflect to clone the old drive to this one via SATA cable. Took 40 minutes but worked beautifully: cloned all partitions and created an identical bootable clone. All I had to to do is pop it into my laptop and turn it on.

I replaced the original hard drive and the PNY being considerably smaller I had to modify how it was mounted. I was able to download the Windows10 operating system and had my old Dell XPS running quickly and fast. A good upgrade from the Dell factory H.D.

So far I have tried almost every brand and have been always satisfied with the performance which is the case with this drive as well. Since my computer ae all a little older, SSD’s improve the performance of older pc’s and laptops in a big way.

Running 2 of these in an array alongside 2 higher end Samsung. No complaints, one unit is approaching 5 years and doing well, the other is brand new and good to go.

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.

Do not have a benchmark for comparison purposes, but this drive has my laptop running much faster than it did with spinning storage.

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.

It’s only few days but I had no problem to install it into my computer as a 3rd drive and use it as a cache drive.

The PNY harddrive itself works great, was a good price, shipped quickly, and arrived packaged well. However, part of the reason I purchased this specific product from B&H Photo was specifically because the product description stated that the product was shipped with a licensed copy of Acronis True Image HD 2017 data migration software, which it does not. Unfortunately, B&H Photo is out for an extended Easter vacation, so they have been unable to respond to my requests for resolution. So, if like me, you are swayed with the advertising that the SSHD comes with a licensed copy of Acronis True Image, it does not. Also, can confirm that the product does not come with any mounting hardware like an earlier reviewer commented, however the screws from the SSHD that I removed fit into the new drive properly. The only reason you’d need new screws is if this SSHD is not replacing an existing HD.

This is my second PNY SSD. So far I have had no problems with either of them. They work as they should and help my desk top and lap top computers to boot up much faster than with traditional hard drives.

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).
