Fast Performance for Gaming, Multimedia, and More

Upgrade your computer or gaming console and enjoy fast, reliable performance with the SanDisk Extreme II Solid State Drive. This SSD features a storage capacity of 480 GB (1) and delivers sequential read speeds of up to 545 megabytes per second (MB/s) and sequential write speeds of up to 500 MB/s (2). This allows you to multitask, run graphics-intensive applications, and transfer large files with ease, as well boot up and shut down your machine without having to wait. SanDisk's tiered caching across storage layers optimizes the write speed and disk endurance and ensures your data is stored in the safest place.

Designed to Keep Your Data Safe

Housed in a durable aluminum case, the SanDisk Extreme II has been engineered to resist shocks and vibrations, preserve the integrity of your data, and prevent data loss. Dynamic and static wear leveling help extend the life of the drive, while over-provisioning and over-clocking ensure consistent performance even under the heaviest workloads. Other features include bad block management, which prevents uncorrectable memory errors, and thermal throttling, which protects critical drive components against extreme temperatures.

Quiet, Stable Operation and Low Power Consumption

Unlike traditional hard disk drives, solid disk drives contain no moving parts, making them cooler and quieter and less likely to break. SSDs are also more energy-efficient than standard HDDs for longer laptop battery life. According to a SanDisk research paper, an SSD can extend the life of a laptop by up to 33 percent (3).

SanDisk SSDs are engineered to deliver sustained high performance over time.

Sustained High Performance for Gamers and Professionals

Rather than focusing on peak speeds, which may be achieved only for a few seconds at a time, SanDisk maximizes real operating speeds and performance consistency over a long period of time. Thanks to a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 2 million hours (5), the SanDisk Extreme II can deliver years of fast, reliable performance.

Tiered caching across storage layers increases write speed and disk endurance.

Faster Write Speeds and Safer Data with nCache

To optimize the user experience, the SanDisk Extreme II contains nCache technology, a large, non-volatile write cache that consolidates small writes to boost random write performance and the long-term data endurance of the drive. This proprietary technology from SanDisk is designed to mediate how modern-day operating systems and flash memory interoperate. The result is faster response times and better multitasking without stuttering.

An ideal upgrade for a laptop or desktop computer or a gaming console.

Reliable Performance with an Extended MTBF

Like other SanDisk solid state drives, the SanDisk Extreme II offers a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 2 million hours based on a parts stress analysis. MTBF is the predicted amount of time the drive will operate without failure and is a measure of reliability. Consequently, you can get more out of your computer or gaming system with less downtime.

This SSD monitors and provides updates on its health status.

Monitor the Health of Your SSD in Real Time

Thanks to S. M.A. R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) capabilities, this solid state drive can detect and report on various indicators of reliability and alert you of an impending drive failure while there is still time to take action.

SSDs deliver cool, quiet operation and consume less power than typical HDDs.

The Advantage of SSDs

Why replace your computer's hard disk drive with a solid state drive? SSDs offer a number of advantages over traditional hard drives. Because they contain no moving parts, SanDisk SSDs are less likely to break and they deliver cooler and quieter operation and consume less power than standard 7,200 RPM hard drives (4). In addition, SanDisk SSDs are cased in aluminum and are rigorously tested to withstand shocks and vibrations. This, along with fast read and write speeds for games and more, makes an SSD a compelling option, and it's easy to remove an HDD and install an SSD without losing any data.
