About the CS900

The PNY CS900 1TB is a SATA 6Gb/s solid state drive built in the 2.5 inch form factor, making it a drop-in replacement for laptop and desktop hard drives or older SATA SSDs. It is intended for general computing, boot drives, and light to moderate storage workloads where a standard SATA interface is required rather than NVMe.

The unit in this listing was tested and passed a full diagnostic cycle before being offered for sale. It had logged 4474 power-on hours at the time of testing, and a sequential read benchmark measured 526 MB/s, consistent with the performance expected from a SATA 6Gb/s SSD of this capacity.

Before listing, the drive was sanitized using an ATA secure erase with read-back verification, so no data from prior use remains on it. Every unit in this product line goes through the same inspection process, covering performance, surface integrity, and SMART health attributes, so buyers can see the actual condition of the specific drive they are purchasing.

CS900 questions

What is this drive typically used for?+

The PNY CS900 1TB SATA SSD is suited for general desktop and laptop use, including operating system boot drives, application storage, and everyday file storage where a SATA interface is required.

Will this SSD work with my system?+

It uses a SATA 6Gb/s interface in a 2.5 inch form factor, so it is compatible with any system or enclosure that supports standard SATA SSDs or hard drives, including older systems limited to SATA 3Gb/s.

What does the testing process check on each unit?+

Each drive undergoes sequential and random read/write benchmarking, a full extended self-test across the entire surface, a SMART health check for reallocated, pending, and uncorrectable sectors, and a cross-check of power-on hours against an independent on-drive log.

Has the drive been wiped before sale?+

Yes, this unit was sanitized using an ATA secure erase method with read-back verification, following NIST 800-88 guidelines, so no prior data remains on it.

How many hours has this drive been used?+

The tested unit had 4474 power-on hours recorded at the time of testing, confirmed against the drive's internal log.
