Description

An efficient drive for laptops and consoles

The drive draws an average of 3.4 W when reading, 3.7 W when writing and 0.005 W in sleep, so a battery-powered device lasts longer between charges. The board has no heatsink, is only 2.38 mm thick and weighs 5.8 g. SanDisk Dashboard (Windows only) shows drive health, installs updates and turns on Game Mode, and Acronis True Image for SanDisk helps move everything over from your old drive.

Who this SSD is for

Laptop owners replacing a slow or small drive who want fast boot times without sacrificing battery life; gamers with a free M.2 2280 slot in their console or PC; and creators who open large video and image files. An endurance rating of 600 TBW leaves plenty of headroom for everyday use.

Questions & answers

Will it fit a handheld game console?

The drive is M.2 2280, meaning 22 × 80 mm. The console or laptop must support exactly this length and PCIe NVMe drives; it will not fit devices with shorter M.2 slots.

What does 600 TBW mean?

The manufacturer rates the drive for at least 600 terabytes of data written over its lifetime. With normal home and gaming use, reaching that takes years.

How do I move my data from the old drive?

The manufacturer provides Acronis True Image for SanDisk, which copies the system and files from the old drive to the new one. The SanDisk Dashboard utility runs on Windows only.
