SanDisk SSD UATA 5000 1.8”, with up to 64-gigabyte (GB)* flash memory, is targeted at enterprise users as the first step in mass consumer adoption of the solid state drive in the mobile PC market.

Field-Tested Durability

Our 5th generation SSD, SanDisk SSD UATA 5000 has been field-proven for over a decade in the harshest of environments. It uses NAND flash enhanced by our patented TrueFFS® flash management technology. SanDisk SSD delivers an outstanding two million hour mean time to failure (MTTF)1 rate. This superior level results in reduced tangible costs, such as IT labor costs, while also decreasing intangible costs associated with inaccessible data that can negatively affect business opportunities and reputations.

Enhanced Performance

With no moving parts, SanDisk SSD does not need to spin up into action or to seek files in the way that conventional hard disk drives do - enabling SanDisk SSD to work much faster. SanDisk SSD UATA 5000 achieves a sustained read rate of 67-megabyte (MB)*/sec and a random read rate of over 7000 inputs/outputs per second (IOPS) for a 512-byte transfer2 – more than 100 times faster than any hard disk drive.

These performance figures boost system performance. For instance, SanDisk SSD UATA 5000 can boot Microsoft Windows® Vista™ Enterprise on a laptop in as little as 35 seconds.3 SanDisk SSD achieves an average file access rate of 0.11 milliseconds.4 On Windows Experience Index for Microsoft® Vista™, SanDisk SSD scores 5.6 out of a total 5.9, whereas a hard disk drive scores 3.7 on the same test inside the same laptop.5

Power Efficient

Another advantage of SanDisk SSD UATA 5000 is its low power consumption rate compared to the hard disk drive: 0.5W during active operation versus 1.0W. This is particularly important to extend the battery life for the benefit of road warriors.

Only 5mm in height, lighter and power efficient, SanDisk SSD SATA 5000 1.8” is the ideal storage mate for thin & light and ultra mobile laptops. It takes capacity a step further, too, with up to 72 gigabytes.
Add to this the native ruggedness of flash-only storage and performance that has been specially tuned for Microsoft® Vista, and you have one, special solid state drive. Just what corporate laptop users have been waiting for.

Smaller, Lighter and High Capacity

SanDisk SSD SATA 5000 1.8” has been trimmed down in size and weight to fit inside new, sleek laptops. It measures only 5mm in height, and weighs less than 45 grams. As proof that good things truly do come in small packages, SanDisk SSD SATA 5000 1.8” is available in capacities as high as 72 gigabyte, suited for hard-working corporate laptop users.

Advanced Power Modes

SanDisk SSD SATA 5000 1.8” saves on power. With advanced power modes, it reduces power consumption when inactive to extend the laptop battery life.

High Reliability

Our 5th generation SSD, SanDisk SSD SATA 5000 1.8″ is based on technology that has been field-proven for over a decade in the harshest of environments. It uses NAND flash enhanced by our patented SanDisk flash management technology. SanDisk SSD delivers an outstanding two million hour mean time to failure (MTTF)1. This superior level results in reduced tangible costs, such as IT labor costs, while also decreasing intangible costs associated with inaccessible data.

High Performance

Using a SATA II interface and an industry standard micro SATA connector, SanDisk SSD SATA 5000 1.8” has been especially designed to cater to laptop users. With no mechanical moving parts and therefore no latency and negligible access time, SanDisk SSD SATA 1.8” 5000 achieves a sustained read rate of 66 megabyte (MB)1/sec and a random read rate of over 7000 inputs/outputs per second (IOPS) for a 512-byte transfer2 – more than 100 times faster than any hard disk drive. These performance figures boost system performance. SanDisk SSD achieves an average file access rate of 0.1 milliseconds.3

SanDisk SSD SATA 5000 2.5″, a solid state drive with up to 64-gigabyte (GB)* flash memory, is a drop-in replacement for the hard disk drive. This popular form factor and Serial ATA (SATA) interface are ideal for thin and light notebooks, the largest mobile PC segment in the enterprise space.

Highly Durable

Our 5th generation SSD, SanDisk SSD SATA 5000 2.5″ is based on technology that has been field-proven for over a decade in the harshest of environments. It uses NAND flash enhanced by our patented TrueFFS® flash management technology. SanDisk SSD delivers an outstanding two million hour mean time to failure (MTTF)1 rate. This superior level results in reduced tangible costs, such as IT labor costs, while also decreasing intangible costs associated with inaccessible data that can negatively affect business reputations.

Enhanced Performance

With no moving parts, SanDisk SSD SATA 5000 2.5″ does not need to spin up into action or to seek files in the way that conventional hard disk drives do, while also eliminating the limitations of random seek performance. These characteristics, combined with SanDisk advanced flash management technology, enable SanDisk SSD to achieve performance that is approximately twice as fast as the hard disk drive2. SanDisk SSD SATA 5000 2.5″ achieves a sustained read rate of 67-megabyte (MB)*/sec and a random read rate of over 7000 inputs/outputs per second (IOPS) for a 512-byte transfer3.
These performance figures boost system performance and enhance the user experience. For instance, SanDisk SSD SATA 5000 2.5″ can boot Microsoft Windows® Vista™ Enterprise on a laptop in as little as 30 seconds4. SanDisk SSD achieves an average file access rate of 0.11 milliseconds.2 On Windows Experience Index for Microsoft®Vista™, SanDisk SSD scores 5.6 out of a total 5.9.5

Power Efficient

Another advantage of SanDisk SSD SATA 5000 2.5″ is its low power consumption rate, less than 50%, compared to the hard disk drive: 1.0W during active operation versus 2.4W. This is particularly important to extend the battery life for the benefit of road warriors.

High-Performance Storage for Notebook and Desktop PCs

The Intel® X25-M and X18-M Mainstream SATA Solid-State Drive (SSD) brings a new level of performance and reliability to laptop and desktop PC storage.

Wait Less. Do More.

Why wait for a traditional hard disk drive to spin up? Unlike traditional hard disk drives, Intel solid-state drives have no moving parts, resulting in a quiet, cool, highly rugged storage solution that also offers faster system responsiveness. And for laptop PCs, the lower power needs of Intel SSDs translate to longer battery life and lighter notebooks. Higher performance with more durability means you can be truly mobile with confidence.

Better by Design

Drawing from decades of memory engineering experience, Intel Mainstream SATA Solid-State Drives are designed to deliver outstanding performance, featuring the latest-generation native SATA interface with an advanced architecture employing 10 parallel NAND flash channels equipped with multi-level cell NAND flash memory. With powerful Native Command Queuing to enable up to 32 concurrent operations, Intel Mainstream SATA SSDs deliver higher input/output per second and throughput performance than other SSDs on the market today - and drastically outperform traditional hard disk drives. These drives also feature low write amplification and a unique wear-leveling design for higher reliability, meaning Intel drives not only perform better - they last longer.

Two Options. No Worries.

Intel® Mainstream Solid-State Drives are available in either 2.5″ (Intel® X25-M Mainstream SATA Solid-State Drive) or 1.8″ (Intel® X18-M Mainstream SATA Solid-State Drive) standard hard drive form factors. And all Intel Mainstream SSDs are tested and validated on the latest Intel-based mobile and desktop platforms for your peace of mind.
