Available for purchase, the Silicon Power M.2 80mm (2280) format SSD disk with a large volume of 128 GB.
The disk is equipped with the currently most advanced and compact M.2 connection port.
This is a SATA type SSD disk. It uses the SATA III protocol, which is older technology, however SATA is still a good option for everyday use and budget solutions.
The read speed for this SSD drive reaches 550 MB/s. However, it's crucial to note - if the "fast" drives are not provided with adequate cooling, they may not be able to operate at the speed indicated by the manufacturer.
The writing speed for this SSD disk reaches 420 MB/s. Without a suitable cooling mechanism, "fast" disks may not be able to achieve the performance indicators promised by the manufacturer.
The format of this SSD drive (physical size of the drive) is M.2 80mm (2280).
This SSD disk has a SATA III (6Gb/s) interface. Keep in mind that if you insert a disk with a newer interface (for example, with PCIe 4.0 or 5.0) into an older interface slot (for example, PCIe 3.0), the disk speed will decrease because the disk will not have sufficient data transfer speed (Bandwidth).
Sequential read speed or the mean data reading speed is the most important criterion of the high-speed operation of the SSD. The data from the SSD will be read much more often than written to it because the operating system stores the processed data in the RAM in most cases.
If you want the reading speed of the purchased SSD to exceed the speed of the classic HDD considerably you should choose the SSD with the reading speed of 200 MB/s or above. The additional increase in the performance will be achieved on the account of the data search (SeekTime) which is of much higher level with SSDs than any HDD.
The writing speed is almost as important as the reading speed. Also this parameter determines the performance of the SSD, however, as the writing to the disc happens not as often as the data reading and average user will find it subjectively difficult to distinguish between any speed above 100 MB/s and higher indices, except the cases when the SSD is used in a server, for audio/video recording, etc.
Thanks to the small size provided by the SSD technology the standard size of the discs is 2.5", and it is suitable for an average portable computer. It is possible to install the 2.5" disc in the desktop computer if the transition 2.5" -> 3.5" is used, and this transition can be bought at a low cost at TopPC.fi section"Adapteri". The discs with the format 2.5" + 3.5" have this transition included.
1.8" discs are intended for the ultra-compact class portable computers.
PCI-Express SSDs are intended for desktop computers with a free PCI-Express plug available. This technology in most cases is used for ensuring the performance that exceeds the possibilities of other types of connections.
SSDs with SATAII and SATAIII connection are compatible with the connections of both types in the motherboard. Still, it has to be taken into account that the motherboard SATAII connection can provide maximum about 300 MB/s transmission capacity which can reduce the actual transmission capacity of the SSDs whose reading and/or writing speed exceeds this level to the capacity limits of the SATAII.
The situation is similar with the PCI-Express and SATAIII connection slots. Although the SATAIII standard can provide up to 600 MB/s data transmission capacity there are SSDs with the speed exceeding this limit, in this case the manufacturer chooses the PCI-Express connection slot with a higher transmission capacity. The PCI-Express discs cannot be connected to the portable computer.

Description - A55 Small in size, big in possibilities The A55 SSD combines the benefits of cutting-edge solid state technology with the compact size of the M.2 2280 standard, allowing the drive to be mounted in the latest laptops and desktops alike. Enhanced performance for intensive workloads The SP A55 utilises the SATA III 6Gb/s interface and high-speed synchronous NAND, which, in combination with the ultra-efficient SLC buffer, provides data transfer speeds of up to 560/530MB per second (read/write). In practice, this means very fast boot-ups, efficient work on large files and all this with optimised power requirements. The A55 is therefore a very good solution for anyone looking for a high-performance medium made with the latest technology and offered at an affordable price. Flexible configuration with IntelSRT Intel Smart Response Technology is used to recognise and automatically store the applications and data that are used most frequently on the SSD while fully accessing the large storage capacity of the HDD. This allows you to work and play faster than before without buying a larger and more expensive SSD to store your entire digital content library. Thus, by purchasing an SSD even with a smaller capacity, you can noticeably speed up the overall operation of your operating system and programmes without giving up your existing storage medium. SP Toolbox diagnostic programme The SP Toolbox diagnostic programme provides an easy and intuitive way to view the most important parameters of an SSD. Not only does it display (in real time) parameters such as temperature, free space and the amount of data stored to date, but it also enables performance tests to be carried out. This allows you to be convinced of the condition of the medium in just a few seconds. Data protection technology The A55 drive supports a number of technologies to ensure the safety of the data stored on it. These include mechanisms such as TRIM, NCQ, S.M.A.R.T. as well as automatic error correction ECC, Wear Leveling and Bad Block Management.
