Technical Details
1. Model Name: WDC WDS480G2G0A-00JH30
2. Manufacturer: Western Digital (WD)
3. Capacity: 480 GB (Gigabytes)
4. Form Factor: 2.5 inches (standard size for laptop and desktop SSDs)
5. Interface: SATA III (6 Gb/s)
6. Rotational Speed: Not applicable (SSDs have no rotating parts)
7. Cache Memory: 64 MB DRAM Cache
8. NAND Type: 3D NAND Flash
Features
1. Performance:
- Read Speed: Up to 545 MB/s
- Write Speed: Up to 425 MB/s
- These speeds improve boot times, reduce application loading times, and speed up file transfers compared to traditional hard drives.
2. Interface:
- SATA III (6 Gb/s): The SSD uses the SATA III interface, which is designed for transfer rates of up to 6 Gb/s. It is backwards compatible with older SATA I and SATA II interfaces, with performance limited to the speed of the older interface.
3. Energy Efficiency:
- Low Energy Consumption: Since SSDs have no moving parts, they require less power than traditional hard drives. This is particularly beneficial for laptops as it extends battery life and reduces heat output.
4. Reliability:
- 3D NAND Flash: Uses 3D NAND technology, which allows more memory cells per chip and improves the performance and lifespan of the SSD. 3D NAND is less prone to errors and offers better performance with simultaneous accesses.
5. Data Security:
- TRIM Support: Supports the TRIM command, which maintains SSD performance over time by marking unused blocks of data that can then be managed by the SSD.
6. Thermal Management:
- Thermal Management: The SSD has features to monitor and control operating temperatures to prevent overheating and stabilize performance.
7. Management:
- WD SSD Dashboard: The WD SSD Dashboard software allows users to monitor the SSD, optimize performance, and perform firmware updates.
Application
1. Laptops:
- Primary Drive: Ideal as a main drive for laptops to increase performance, reduce boot times, and extend battery life with low power consumption.
2. Desktop PCs:
- System Drive: Can be used as the primary drive for the operating system and applications in desktop PCs. Improved performance compared to traditional hard drives increases system responsiveness and reduces load times.
3. Upgrades:
- Hard Drive Refresh: A great choice for upgrading older PCs or laptops with traditional hard drives to improve overall system performance and responsiveness.
4. External Storage Solutions:
- External Enclosure: Can be used in external SSD enclosures to provide a portable and high performance storage solution. This is useful for fast file transfers or additional storage capacity on the go.
5. Everyday Uses:
- Multimedia and Office: Well suited for use in office applications, internet browsing, multimedia consumption, and everyday tasks where speed and responsiveness are valued.
Physical Specifications
1. Dimensions:
- Form Factor: 2.5 inches (69.85mm x 100.2mm x 7mm), fits most laptops and desktop cases.
2. Weight:
- Approximately 45-55g, making the SSD lightweight and compact, ideal for use in mobile and stationary devices.
3. Case Material:
- Robust metal or plastic that provides protection and helps dissipate heat.
Additional Details
- Compatibility:
- SATA III: The SSD is compatible with all systems that support a SATA III interface. However, it can also be operated in older SATA I and SATA II systems, with the speed limited to the maximum transfer rate of the older interfaces.
- Temperature Range:
- Operating Temperature: Typically from 0°C to 70°C
- Storage temperature: From -40°C to 85°C
- Warranty:
- Typically 3 years limited warranty, depending on manufacturer and region conditions.
