What is the write endurance of CT500T500SSD8?
The published rating is 300 TBW. It describes rated writes, not a predicted failure date. Warranty eligibility also depends on the manufacturer's terms.
What connection does CT500T500SSD8 need?
CT500T500SSD8 requires a M.2 2280 slot that supports PCIe/NVMe. Check supported PCIe generation, available lanes and heatsink clearance; a SATA-only M.2 slot is not sufficient.
How much usable space does CT500T500SSD8 provide?
Its nominal capacity is 500 GB, approximately 465.7 GiB before formatting. The filesystem, reserved space and any RAID redundancy reduce usable capacity further.
What warranty is listed for CT500T500SSD8?
Manufacturer specification: 5 years or TBW limit, whichever comes first. A renewed, used, OEM or imported offer can have different coverage. Check the serial number and seller terms before buying.
