Specifications

Manufacturer / modelPNY CS900 2 TB
Full manufacturer SKUSSD7CS900-2TB-RB
Capacity2 TB
Form factor / height2.5-inch SATA, 7 mm (check physical clearance and the manufacturer’s exact package/revision documentation).
Interface / limitSATA III / SATA 6 Gb/s signaling. Protocol overhead and negotiated host link speed limit payload throughput; M.2 SATA, mSATA and NVMe are not interchangeable connectors/protocols.
Controller, NAND, endurance & performancePNY lists a 2.5-inch SATA III (6 Gb/s) drive with sequential reads/writes up to 560/540 MB/s. Controller, NAND type and capacity-specific TBW are not established by the cited pages and are not inferred. The SATA link rate is a signaling ceiling, not a payload guarantee.
Host compatibilityFor a PC/laptop with a 2.5-inch bay or suitable mounting and a SATA data connector plus SATA power. SATA backward compatibility depends on host implementation; check BIOS/UEFI, operating-system and boot support, connector clearance and required capacity support. TRIM/SMART requires suitable OS, driver and ATA pass-through support; some USB bridges/RAID modes do not pass commands.

Archival, health & service notes

  • Record label, serial, firmware, SMART/health snapshot, host/controller, date and source revision; a family name alone is not enough to identify a revision.
  • Advertised maxima and TBW are manufacturer ratings, not a guarantee of speed or service life in a particular workload.
  • Keep verified backups and periodic integrity checks; an SSD is not a substitute for multiple independent archival copies.
