Smart SLC Caching Performance Boost

Intelligent SLC caching algorithms allow NAND flash memory to operate in SLC (single-level cell) mode on-demand to boost SSD read/write up to 560MB/s and 510MB/s (240GB and 480GB models). Boosting performance without increasing cost further, SP550 speeds up everyday tasks such as web-surfing, email, social media, video streaming and gaming.

Advanced LDPC ECC Engine, Durability Guarantee!

Advanced LDPC (Low Density Parity Check Code) error correcting prevents data errors and corruption, ensuring consistent reliability with enhanced data protection and longer-lasting durability than comparable products without LDPC.

RAID Engine and Data Shaping for Ultimate Protection

Proven Drive Longevity with High TBW

Total bytes written or TBW refers to the number of times an SSD can write its entire capacity in one lifespan - an indication of durability. SP550's TBW rating outranks comparable models for longer-lasting service life.

Lower Power Consumption Plus Longer Battery Life

SP550 supports DEVSLP (Device Sleep) technology for improved energy efficiency, resulting in lower power consumption and operating cost as well as extended battery life.

Notebook SSD Disk Bay Spacer

SP550 is just 7mm thick - an easy fit even for super-thin Ultrabooks. A 2.5mm spacer is included for use in 9.5mm drive bays, compatible with virtually every notebook. It is easier than ever to replace mechanical hard drive and upgrade to SP550 SSD for its high performance, low power consumption and virtually silent operation.
