2TB SSD 2.5"

Note: Price increase Monday 18 October.

This 2.5" SSD is available in a large 2TB capacity. 

HomeKit Australia's 2.5" SATA SSD (Solid State Drive) is a high performance and high reliability storage device based around Grade 1 Micron NAND Flash technology.

SSD's are designed to solve the bottleneck caused by slower traditional hard disk drives.

Our SATA SSD has no moving parts but with the same host interface and same physical dimensions of a traditional 2.5" hard disk drive. This allows all 2.5" traditional SATA hard drives to be replaced with this 2.5" SSD.

Combining high performance with low power consumption, HomeKit Australia's SATA SSD is a perfect storage device for laptops and desktop computers as well as external storage devices.

With features that mitigate against shock and vibration, our SATA SSD has highly advanced flash memory management algorithm to provide outstanding performance, high reliability and service life.

The latest SSD technology allows for Sequential Read Speeds up to 560MB per second and Write Speeds up to 510MB per second.

SSD's are designed with no moving parts to help protect against data loss, should the SSD be accidentally knocked or dropped. With an excess of 2 million hours MTTF (mean time to failure), error correction technologies and backed by a 3 year warranty, HomeKit Australia 2.5" SATA SSD's will safeguard your data for years to come.

Our LDPC ECC engine executes parity generation and error detection/correction features, and enhances decoding throughput and data reliability. With LDPC of correction capacity 1e-2 RBER, the hard and soft decoding mechanism provides powerful error correction.

The onboard Silicon Motion SMI2259XT Controller chip ensures maximum endurance and retention of the 4D TLC NAND Flash and extends the SSD lifespan. Additionally all HomeKit Australia SSD's feature advanced Wear Leveling algorithms.

As you may understand, NAND flash devices are limited by a maximum number of write cycles. If some areas of the NAND was to degrade faster than others, it would significantly reduce the service life of the SSD. Wear Levelling ensures data writes are distributed evenly across the media, with the result being the lifetime of the media is significantly prolonged.

This is achieved both via buffer management and specific advanced Wear Leveling algorithm determined by the onboard SMI controller chip that enables an increase in the lifetime of the flash media combined with optimised disk performance.

This 2.5" SSD features S.M.A.R.T. technology.

S.M.A.R.T. is an acronym for Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, an open standard allowing disk drives to automatically monitor their own health and report potential problems.

It protects the user from unscheduled downtime by monitoring and storing critical drive performance and calibration parameters. Ideally, this should allow for proactive actions to prevent impending drive failure. S.M.A.R.T feature adopts the standard S.M.A.R.T command B0h to read data from the drive. With the SMART utility running on the host, it analyses and reports the disk status to the host before the device is in critical condition.

Formatted available capacity is in excess of 1.9GB.

HomeKit Australia 2.5" SSD's are available to ship from 1 October 2021. Pre-orders are now open.

In the meantime if you are looking to better understand Solid State Drives and their associated terminologies we've produced an SSD Primer which you can download.

These 2TB 2.5" Solid State Drives are in stock and shipping today.
