Before You Buy or Install
- Confirm that your desktop or laptop supports a 2.5-inch SATA SSD and has the required SATA data and power connections.
- This is a SATA SSD, not an M.2 NVMe drive. It cannot directly replace an M.2-only storage device.
- Check the physical clearance and 7mm drive-height compatibility of your system.
- Back up important data before replacing a drive or migrating your operating system.
- Actual transfer speeds depend on the SATA controller, system configuration, workload and operating conditions.
- Confirm the applicable regional warranty and endurance terms before purchase.
