GOODRAM CX400 128GB 2.5" 7mm SATA III SSD

GOODRAM CX400 128GB is a 2.5" SATA III SSD, aimed at budget configurations where you want to replace a slow HDD with something significantly snappier. You get a classic 7 mm form factor, which fits without issue in most laptops and desktops, plus a black casing and a weight of only 35 g. Speeds up to 550MB/s read and 460MB/s write are more than sufficient for a fast Windows boot and more responsive applications. The model is based on NAND flash memory and a Phison PS3111-S11 controller with additional data protections.

What you get

With 128GB capacity, this SSD is ideal for a system drive – operating system, main programs, and a few heavier applications or games. The SATA III (6Gb/s) interface allows you to get the most out of the standard SATA port, while the 2.5" / 7 mm form factor makes it directly replaceable with most 2.5" HDD/SSD drives. The Phison PS3111-S11 controller, along with technologies like SmartECC™ and SmartFlush™, works for more reliable data storage and a lower risk of loss during an unexpected power failure. The nominal endurance of 119 TBW and an MTBF of 2 000 000 hours are a good indicator of durability during typical daily use. The operating temperature of 0°C to 70°C ensures normal operation in most desktop and mobile systems.
