Verbatim Vi560 S3 M.2 2TB SATA SSD

The Verbatim Vi560 S3 M.2 2TB SATA SSD is a high-capacity internal solid state drive built around the compact M.2 2280 form factor, making it an ideal upgrade candidate for laptops, ultrabooks, and thin-and-light notebooks that support SATA-based M.2 slots. With sequential read speeds of up to 550 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 500 MB/s, everyday computing tasks — including system boot, application loading, and large file transfers — are noticeably faster compared to traditional spinning hard drives. The drive is built using 3D NAND flash technology, which stacks memory cells vertically to deliver greater storage density alongside improved endurance compared to planar NAND. Because the Vi560 S3 has no moving parts, it is inherently more resistant to shocks and vibrations encountered during everyday laptop use, and it operates silently. Lower heat output compared to a mechanical hard drive also contributes to extended battery life on portable systems. Power draw is clearly specified for the 2 TB capacity: active read consumption is 1,810 mW, active write consumption is 1,620 mW, and idle power draw drops to 620 mW — a practical consideration for battery-powered laptops. The drive carries a 3-year warranty and Verbatim recommends professional installation.
