On the next few pages we'll show you some photos. The images were taken at high-resolution and then cropped and scaled down. The camera used was a Canon 450D 12 MegaPixel.
You can find the model we tested under the product code (SKU) CSSD-V128GB2-BRKT and this is the 2.5" SATA II 128 GB version. You should easily be able to place it somewhere in your chassis. As you can see is comes with a handy mounting plate as well, so you can insert it into a 3.5" (regular size HDD) drive bay.
And though the photo would make you think otherwise, of course, it's a perfect fit for laptops. This SSD would bring a whole lot of performance onto that laptop alright, all at low power consumption at 2 Watt and virtually no heat.
When we look at the connectors, we spot the standard power and Serial ATA connector, this drive is SATA2 compatible.
Slim and light-weight at 80 grams, 9.5mm tall, it's the standard for notebook drives and you can easily tuck it away in a regular PC. The V128 comes with a two year warranty.
Installation wise it's the same as a traditional HDD. Pop it in, connect it, bind it, format it and you are good to go at horribly fast speeds. It uses the same connectors as an SATA storage device. Here another photo of the 3.5" drive bay bracket.
