SanDisk Extreme Pro 480GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Internal SSD

The SanDisk SDSSDXPS-480G-G25 is an internal solid state drive designed for anyone who needs quick system response and dependable storage. It fits into a standard 2.5 inch SATA bay and offers 480GB of capacity, making it a straightforward upgrade for desktops, workstations, or laptops that still rely on slower hard disks.

Through its SATA 6 Gb per second interface, the drive reaches sequential read speeds up to 550 MB per second and write speeds up to 515 MB per second. The result is noticeably faster boot times, shorter application launches, and smoother handling of large media files. Whether you edit high-resolution photos, compile code, or manage virtual machines, the drive keeps pace with demanding workflows.

SanDisk includes nCache Pro technology to sustain high throughput during long transfers, and the controller supports TRIM along with Background Garbage Collection to clear unused data blocks automatically. These features help the drive maintain consistent performance even after months of heavy use.

The drive operates quietly, stays cool, and draws as little as 0.15 watts while active, which can extend battery life in a laptop and lower power consumption in a desktop. With shock resistance rated at up to 1500G, it also protects data against bumps that might occur during travel. A 10-year limited warranty underscores SanDisk’s confidence in the drive’s durability for round-the-clock workloads.

This model suits creative professionals who move large project files every day, gamers who want faster level loads, and IT teams looking to refresh older systems without replacing the entire platform. Installation is straightforward: connect the SATA cable, secure the drive in the bay, and format it through the operating system.
