Quality score

How we score →

Scored from what the maker publishes: cache, capacity (under 1TB loses points), endurance per terabyte and warranty. Every SATA drive is capped by the same connection, so speed does not count.

24/ 100 among SATA SSDsValue 25.9 for the price
Partial confidence · 65% of specs known

Value weighs the score against the price, compared with other 250GB SATA SSDs: this drive costs $310.29/TB against a typical $360.06/TB. At a typical price, value equals the score. Cheaper raises it and dearer lowers it, but price counts for less than quality.

A factor we hold no value for scores zero rather than being skipped, so a drive we know little about never outranks a fully documented one. A low score with low confidence means undocumented, not bad. This is a specification index, not a benchmark, and it only compares SATA SSDs with each other.
