Mercury EXTREME 120GB Pro 6G SSD 2.5" Serial-ATA 9.5mm Solid State Drive When only the fastest & most reliable Solid State Drive on the market today will suffice for your data storage & backup, look no further than the OWC Mercury EXTREME Pro 6G SSD. Get maximum mobile performance & battery life from your notebook. Turn your Mac Pro or PC desktop into an EXTREME performance single drive. The Mercury EXTREME SSD line features industry leading Sand Force Dura Class Technologies: Dura Write extends the endurance of your Solid State Drive (SSD). Intelligent Block Management & Wear Leveling automatically distributes data evenly across the entire SSD. Intelligent Read Disturb Management spreads the active read/write across the flash components eliminating data corruption caused by constant use. Intelligent " Recycling" for advanced free space management gradually re-writes data across the SSD over time to ensure data never gets corrupted. RAISE (Redundant Array of Independent Silicon Elements) protects the data on your drive similar to having a RAID setup. Best-in-Class ECC Protection for longest data retention & drive life. This internal 2.5" SATA SSD uses the latest Sand Force 2281 Processor & Dura Class technology to deliver the highest transfer speed, endurance, & performance available today. With sustained reads up to 559MB/s & writes up to 527MB/s, up to 100X greater data protection than enterprise class Hard Disk Drives, & RAISE technology for RAID like data protection & reliability, the OWC Mercury EXTREME SSD line delivers unbeatable performance that's designed & built in the U.S. from domestic & imported parts & backed by a five year warranty. High Performance Internal Storage: Replace your conventional hard drive with a reliable solid state drive. Unlike traditional hard disk drives, OWC solid state drives have no moving parts, resulting in a quiet, cool, highly rugged storage solution that also offers faster system responsiveness. High Reliability & Protection: OWC SSDs allocate some of the drive capacity for RAISE, to provide real time data redundancy, ECC Error Correction, & reserve cell space. Example: A 240GB OWC Mercury EXTREME Pro SSD is actually a 256GB drive with 7% of the drive's capacity allocated for data management. This management maintains the drive's high-performance & high reliability levels. Unlike many SSDs on the market today, the Mercury Pro family uses advanced Dura Write wear-leveling & block management technologies to keep Read/ Write performance at peak, while others see performance fall. This OWC 6G SSD Model is compatible with nearly any Mac or PC model with a Serial ATA connection (SATA, SATA 2.0, or SATA 3.0) including: All Mac Pro models All Mac Book Pro models NOTE exceptions below All Mac mini 2006-Current (All Intel Models) i Mac 2006-current (All Intel Models) All Mac Book models NOTE model exceptions below Xserve 2009 Special note for specific 2008-2010 Mac Books & 2008-2009 Mac Book Pros.
