This question has probably been answered for the satisfaction of the op, however for future questioners it may be beneficial to answer the actual difference between the drives.. The {G25} is the type of drive, and therefore both will be the same performance, mtbf, etc. The main difference is that the 500gb drive is a 4k sector structure, and the 512gb drive is an 512b sector structure.. 512b storage devices of any kind will have a storage capacity divisible by 8 and typically increase by a factor of 2xbase, so 8gb, 16gb, 32gb, 64gb, 128gb, 256gb, 512gb, 1024gb, etc. In general there will be no significant difference between the sector structure, perhaps a sight difference between lost mb's when formatted.. The 512b storage devices will generally lose a little less mb when formatted due to being easier to round off partition sizes given the smaller sector size. However there is a legacy difference in operating systems such as Unix, and variants like Linux, where those operating systems were designed to expect 512b sectors and all but the newer kernal versions of Unix variants may have trouble installing and/or managing 4k sector drives.. If you do not plan on using Unix and variants, or do not plan to replace a drive in an older Apple computer, you will likely have nothing to worry about and can purchase whichever gives you the most mb/$.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The Ultras have a different memory type and faster (slightly) overall throughput.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Well obviously with the first one, you're supposed to have 12GB more than the second one. However, neither is going to give you up to 500GB after installation. I would say anyone is ok though I was talked into getting the 512 two weeks ago when I changed my hard drive but I would go for the 500GB if it's costs a little lesser.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.the SDSSDH3-512g is a 512 gb ssd and the SDSSDH3-500g is a 500gb SSD, that is it so just buy the 512gb ssd
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.As you have pointed out, the size seems to be the only difference. Both drives operate at the same speed, have efficient power draws, and are 2.5" drives. Either would work well in your laptop upgrade or replacement.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It appears that the 512GB has a faster transfer speed, however this is generally relative. Go with the cheaper one/on sale one.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, the 512G-G25 has 12G more
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I believe you answered your own question. Same brand, same price for 12gig more? I have never had any problems with SanDisk products!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.you answered with the qyestion, 512 v 500 and speed difference.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.That’s just it. 12GB. Otherwise it’s exactly the same, except one is on sale, which is why i bought the 512 :-)
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
