- Storage Capacity: 500 gigabytes (Measured in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and terabytes (TB), this is the amount available for storing files, music, movies, photos and more. The total includes the capacity of the hard disk drive and solid state drive if both are included on the computer.)
- Storage Drive Type: SSD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
- Maximum Read Speed: 550 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can read information; for example, opening files.)
- Maximum Write Speed: 500 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can write information; for example, saving files.)

PNY CS900 500GB Internal SSD: Great Value for Reli
I’ve been using the PNY CS900 500GB SSD in my virtualization servers primarily for file storage and tasks that don’t require the speed of NVMe drives. For this purpose, the CS900 has proven to be an excellent choice, providing solid performance and great value. Performance: While the CS900 is a SATA SSD and doesn’t match the blistering speeds of NVMe drives, it still offers impressive read and write speeds for a SATA-based solution. It handles my file storage needs efficiently, allowing for quick access to data without the lag associated with traditional HDDs. For applications where fast access isn’t critical, the CS900 performs admirably, keeping my virtualization environment running smoothly. Reliability: Reliability is key in any server setup, and the PNY CS900 has delivered consistent performance since I started using it. I haven’t experienced any significant issues, and it has remained stable even during extended use. This reliability makes it a dependable choice for less frequently accessed data, ensuring that my storage remains intact and accessible when needed. Value: One of the standout features of the CS900 is its value. It offers a cost-effective solution for users who need a balance between performance and budget. Given its performance characteristics, I find it to be an excellent investment for my storage needs without overspending on faster drives that aren’t necessary for every application. Conclusion: Overall, the PNY CS900 500GB Internal SSD is a fantastic option for those looking for reliable and efficient storage in a virtualization environment. It strikes a great balance between performance and affordability, making it an ideal choice for file storage and other applications where ultra-fast access isn’t a priority.

Speedy backup drive
I purchased a couple of these drives and put them into external housings with fast usb interfaces. I use them to backup my system drive twice a month, alternating between them. I get speeds of typically 400 MB/s with this external housing, which is close to the maximum of 500MB/s obtainable when connected to the internal SATA of my computer. I got these drives at a good price on sale.

Great drive- Great price
Great drive- Great price. Super easy upgrade for a Gen 6 i5 machine....was thinking about upgrading the whole computer, but decided to clone the drive to an SSD first to see the difference...Wow. Like a completely different machine. Well worth the small investment and the time..Acronis True Image is great, I have used it many times without an issue, on many different builds to upgrade from a spinning disk to an SSD..(free download with PNY SSD's)
