MSI SPATIUM S270 480 GB
Capacity-specific catalog record for manufacturer model/SKU S78-440E350-P83. Specifications are scoped to this capacity and the cited model information; other capacities and revisions may differ.
IDENTIFICATION: Match the full SKU S78-440E350-P83, capacity, and label/revision before service or replacement. This is a consumer 2.5-inch SATA drive, not an enterprise model or an NVMe device.
Specifications & compatibility
| Manufacturer / model / SKU | MSI SPATIUM S270 // S78-440E350-P83 |
|---|---|
| Capacity | 480 GB nominal model capacity. |
| Form factor / interface | 2.5-inch, 7 mm height; SATA III 6 Gb/s. |
| NAND | 3D NAND; MSI’s public model specification does not promise a fixed NAND cell supplier or layer revision. |
| Rated sequential performance | Up to 500 MB/s sequential read and 450 MB/s sequential write. These are published peak figures, not a guarantee of sustained writes or every host workload. |
| Endurance | 250 TBW listed for the 480 GB model; verify the exact SKU and warranty terms for a specific regional release. TBW is a rated-write limit, not a prediction of an individual drive's service life. |
| Host compatibility | Standard 2.5-inch SATA data/power connection is required. A compatible SATA host can negotiate its supported link speed; ensure the bay and caddy allow 7 mm thickness, and validate boot/driver/TRIM support for the host system. |
| TRIM / SMART / firmware | Use the host OS, SATA controller, and firmware tools supported for this exact model/revision. TRIM and SMART pass-through depend on the OS driver, controller mode, enclosure, and bridge; check vendor documentation before firmware changes. |
Preservation & maintenance
- Record the label, exact SKU, serial, firmware, host/controller, and a read-only SMART snapshot before migrating or changing settings.
- Keep independent, verified backups. A TBW rating, SMART indicator, warranty, or wear estimate is not a guarantee of data retention or remaining life.
- Use the manufacturer's exact-model guidance for firmware, secure erase, encryption, diagnostics, and warranty; preserve the original label and firmware state.
- Do not assume identical NAND or controller internals across production batches unless the manufacturer identifies the revision.
