Verbatim Vi560 S3 M.2 512GB SATA SSD

The Verbatim Vi560 S3 is a SATA III M.2 2280 internal solid-state drive designed to breathe new life into ageing laptops, ultrabooks, and thin-and-light notebooks. Built around 3D NAND flash and a modern controller, it delivers read speeds of up to 520 MB/s and write speeds of up to 480 MB/s — a substantial jump over traditional spinning hard drives — translating into noticeably faster system start-ups, quicker application launches, and smoother day-to-day multitasking. The compact M.2 2280 form factor (80 mm × 22.1 mm × 2.3 mm, 9.1 g) slots directly into systems that accept SATA-keyed M.2 slots, making it a straightforward upgrade path for a wide range of consumer laptops. Because SSDs have no spinning platters or read/write heads, the Vi560 S3 is inherently resistant to knocks and vibration — it is rated to withstand a shock of 1500 G (0.5 ms half-sine pulse) and vibration from 7 Hz to 800 Hz at 3.08 Grms. Operating temperature range is 0 °C to 70 °C, with storage down to −40 °C. Power efficiency is a practical advantage for mobile users. The 512 GB variant draws 1430 mW during active reads, 1390 mW during active writes, and just 600 mW at idle — helping extend battery life compared with mechanical alternatives. Professional installation is recommended by the manufacturer.
