Description
Designed for use as a startup drive, the 500GB 3D SATA III 2.5″ Internal SSD from SanDisk provides faster system boots and helps enable faster gaming and graphics performance compared to a traditional HDD. It has a storage capacity of up to 500GB, is equipped with a SATA III 6 Gb/s interface, and fits into your system’s 2.5″ / 7mm drive bay. In terms of speed, this drive offers sequential write speeds of up to 530 MB/s, sequential read speeds of up to 560 MB/s, random writes of up to 84,000 IOPS, and random reads of up to 95,000 IOPS 3D NAND and nCache 2.0 technology.
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.
SanDisk’s 500GB 3D SATA III 2.5″ Internal SSD offers their SSD Dashboard, which is available as a free download, and helps users to monitor their drive’s health. Protection is provided by a limited 3-year warranty, or an endurance rating of up to 200 Terabytes Written (TBW), whichever comes first.

This SSD together with the SATA HD converter for Mac has rejuvenated my old MacBook.

speeds on a 2011Laptop have increased from 9 to 60 times @ crystal disk mark, boots in 1/10 the time. No Cloning software, Sandisk shows EZ gig software in the instructions, but this will not work unless you buy there adapter cable. I removed the hardrive from the laptop, plugged it and the Sandisk into spare SATA connections on my desktop, and used Macrium Reflect ( Free ) to clone original hardrive, 225 gigs, 38 minutes, works perfect..

Combining the SanDisk with the enclosure was a perfect choice.

EXCELLENT SPEED, WRITE & READ

It’s noticeably faster, but I don’t know that it’s leaps and bounds faster like the SSD I purchased to replace my C:. That one blew me away whereas this one is being used primarily to store photos and retrieve them for work in Adobe LR. I repeat, it’s quicker, just not the blink of the eye I was hoping for.

Easy to install and work perfectly on my Macbook pro 13 late 2012

Never had an issue with these SSDs. Great price too!
Yessenia Crooks (verified owner) –
We all could use a speedy all around drive like this. I use it in a dock drive or just plug in a quick adapter SB 3.0 to 2.5 SATA III Drive Adapter Cable.
Lamar Johnston (verified owner) –
I have moved to using these SSD’s and easy from Desktop Externals. Way, way, way faster. And quiet. I am glad the price is coming down on these.

I bought it to use with the Atomos Shogun Inferno and is not fast enough, but it was listed under the accessories for it, that why I got it, I realize too late to return, I am using it as a backup drive.
Osvaldo Kuhic (verified owner) –
Works really smooth once updated. 4k 60fps prores runs even better than my camera’s internal codecs
Julien Collins (verified owner) –
I use this disk for record weddings at 4k 60fps with Canon R6 and Atomos Ninja V. Also use this disk for record with the Canon R5 and the Atomos Ninja V+ Super recomendable!
Henriette Bartell (verified owner) –
No issues, works like described with speeds as listed.
Damian Weimann (verified owner) –
This one is on Atomos’s list of accepted drives for the Ninja V. Its a bit cheaper than the Samsung ones, so you might save yourself a penny or two with this one.
Jacey Cummings (verified owner) –
I use this to capture 4K, 30pm footage on several different Atomos Recorders and they work well. No issues so far. Affordable enough that I picked up 3 and will probably get a few more for backup.
Jerry Mohr (verified owner) –
This is the second 2TB Sandisk SSD I’ve purchased. One is in my 2012 MacBook Pro and the newest in my desktop PC. They are fast and affordable. I highly recommend this SSD.
Norval Jenkins (verified owner) –
Paired this SSD with an OWC Elite Pro Dual Mini and a 2019 MBP. I’ve been working on Video and Photography files with the SSD/External combo with no noticeable performance loss.
Edythe Runte (verified owner) –
These are the most SSD storage for the money for professional audio use. Super fast and light.
