Manufacturer description

The INLAND Platinum 1TB SSD is a 2.5-inch SATA III solid state drive for replacing an aging hard drive in a laptop or desktop. It uses the 6Gb/s SATA interface and is rated for sequential reads up to 500MB/s and writes up to 450MB/s. Random 4K performance is rated at up to 40K IOPS read and 65K IOPS write. In practice, that means faster boot-ups and shutdowns, quicker app launches, and snappier file transfers than a spinning HDD. The drive uses 3D TLC NAND flash, which balances capacity, speed, and cost. With no moving parts, it runs quietly and handles vibration better than a mechanical…

SpecPicks Verdict

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the INLAND Platinum 1TB SSD fit in my laptop?

It will if your laptop takes a 2.5-inch SATA drive. The drive is 7mm thick, which fits most notebooks and ultrabooks with a 2.5-inch bay. It will not fit in an M.2-only slot.

How fast is the INLAND Platinum 1TB compared to a hard drive?

It is rated for sequential reads up to 500MB/s and writes up to 450MB/s, with up to 40K/65K random 4K read/write IOPS. That gives you noticeably faster boot, app loading, and file transfers than a mechanical HDD.

What warranty does the INLAND Platinum SSD come with?

It comes with a 4-year limited parts and labor warranty and is rated for 1,000,000 hours MTBF. Check the product listing for the full warranty terms.

Is this SSD TLC or QLC NAND?

It uses 3D TLC NAND flash. TLC generally offers a good balance of speed, capacity, and cost. The listing does not include a TBW endurance figure, so check with INLAND if you need that number.

Can I use the INLAND Platinum 1TB in a desktop PC?

Yes. It connects to any SATA III port and fits a 2.5-inch drive bay. If your case only has 3.5-inch bays, you will need a separate adapter bracket, because none is listed as included.
