Boost Pro 60GB 2.5" SATA III Solid State Drive
The EDGE™ Boost Pro Solid State Drive (SSD) utilizes the premium SandForce SF-2281 controller. Ultra-fast read and write speeds of up to 550MB/s and 515MB/s (in a SATA III 6Gb/s system) can be achieved respectively. Outstanding read and write speeds coupled with a 85,000 max IOPS rating, provide fantastic performance gains in boot time, file transfers, and loading software applications.
Security is a critical feature of Boost Pro SSD, featuring 256-bit AES hardware encryption that secures 100% of data when enabled.* The feature-rich SandForce controller comes standard with robust tools such as TRIM, S.M.A.R.T., Garbage Collection, wear leveling, and ECC to promote stability and reliability. SandForce exclusive functions— Durawrite and RAISE—further enhance data efficiency and increase the lifespan of the SSD.
*Consult your computer’s manual to ensure drive encryption is a supported function of the BIOS.
