Samsung 860 EVO 500GB SATA SSD

The Samsung 860 EVO is a 2.5 inch internal solid state drive with a 500GB capacity. It connects through a SATA 6Gb/s interface and uses Multi-level Cell flash technology. A 512MB cache supports sustained read and write operations. This drive suits desktops and laptops that accept a standard 2.5 inch SATA storage device.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This drive fits systems with a 2.5 inch SATA bay and a SATA 6Gb/s controller. It is intended for general computing, operating system boot and application storage where a SATA connection is required. Systems that only provide an M.2 slot keyed for PCIe cannot use this drive. Buyers needing a PCIe or M.2 form factor should select a different product.

The specification that decides fit

The decisive specification is the SATA 6Gb/s interface combined with the 2.5 inch form factor. The drive must physically fit a 2.5 inch bay and electrically match a SATA 6Gb/s port. If the host system lacks a 2.5 inch SATA connection, this SSD will not install.
