What is a SATA SSD?

A SATA SSD (Solid State Drive) uses the SATA III interface (also called SATA 3) to transfer data. Compared to classic hard disk drives (HDD), this SSD offers:

  • Faster boot and load times
  • Lower power consumption
  • Shock resistance due to the absence of moving parts

 

M.2 NVMe SSDs are faster, but this 2.5-inch SATA SSD is a great solution for systems without a PCIe slot, or if you’re looking for a quick, accessible upgrade.

 

Who is this SSD Intended for?

  • Gamers

Upgrade your gaming PC with an SSD SATA for gaming. Enjoy shorter loading times, even on older systems without a PCIe slot.

  • Creative professionals

Do you work with large files in video editing or graphic design? This SSD SATA M.2 alternative provides stable performance, even when running multiple apps simultaneously.

  • Home users

This SSD is an excellent choice for users who want to speed up their existing laptop or desktop. Think of faster boot times, smoother performance, and silent operation without moving parts. Thanks to the universal 2.5-inch SATA format, installation is easy and compatibility is broad.

 

Installation and Compatibility

The Philips Internal SSD 2.5″ SATA III (S130) fits in any device with a standard 2.5-inch SATA slot. This applies to most laptops and desktops from recent years.

How do you install a 2.5-inch SSD?

  1. Turn off your laptop or desktop completely and unplug it from the power outlet.
  2. Open the case or back panel.
  3. Remove the old hard drive (HDD) if present.
  4. Insert the new SSD into the 2.5-inch slot and connect the SATA and power cables.

What’s the Difference between SSD SATA and NVMe?

SATA SSDs achieve speeds up to 550 MB/s and are a significant improvement over a classic hard drive (HDD). They are affordable, easy to install, and compatible with almost any system. NVMe SSD “s (via M.2 connection) are much faster than SATA SSD” s, but also more expensive. They require a PCIe slot and are therefore slightly more technical to install. For those seeking maximum speed and have M.2 compatibility, an NVMe SSD like the Philips SSD M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen3 (M140) is a good choice.

Why Choose a SATA SSD Instead of M.2?

A SATA SSD is more affordable, easier to install, and fits in almost any system. Perfect for those without M.2 support.

Yes, a 1TB or 2TB SATA SSD provides sufficient storage capacity for large game libraries and ensures fast loading times. A good choice for PC gamers, although NVMe SSDs are faster.

    Fully compatible. The internal SATA slot accepts the Philips S130 as an upgrade for faster loading times.

Can I use this SSD externally?

Yes, with an external 2.5-inch SATA to USB enclosure, you can also use it as portable storage.

Is this SSD Suitable for My Laptop or PC?

Yes, as long as your device has a 2.5-inch SATA slot, which is the case for almost all systems from the past fifteen years.
