It says both SSD and SATA, which is it?

Depending on the listing it could be either. My particular device is SSD, but it also can come with HDD.

they are two different things. SSD is a type of disk, SATA is a type of connection. So yes, it's a SATA SSD.

This enclosure is SATA. Your drive should also be SATA. If you are confused pull the model number off of the drive and look it up. The model should start with something like ST3500#####

The RAM, no: it's welded to the motherboard. The SSD, yes, but it's an mSata, not a normal Sata.

It's SATA, and I believe SATA III (6GB/sec). At very least SATA II (3GB/sec).One thing to note is that if you intend to replace the mechanical drive with a solid state (which you should - makes these things ten times faster), you'll need a 7mm height SSD. 9.5mm won't fit.Ben

sata is sata, doesn't matter if it is sata3 or sata2, all those only matter to things like hard drive that needs that much bandwidth to start with. sata3 is over kill, hdd can't function up to that speed anyways, unless you are connecting to a high end SSD.

This SSD is the 2.5 SATA format. For most laptops, you'd want to go with an mSATA format - that is if your laptop accepts SATA at all. Some of the older laptops have IDE format (remember the old ribbon cable). Check your laptop to be sure.Also the answer below is a good one. You can go to Crucial's website and the installed Advisor will tell you which SSD you can buy.

Yes, it's a 256GB mSATA SSD(plugs into one of the mini PCI-e slots. Not accessible from the main panel under the system.

Everything I have seen suggests 6bps, which is SATA 3. Crucial's website itself says 6bps as well, so I'm pretty sure it's SATA 3. I can say I've loved it since I got it 2 months ago.

It has both, the ssd is a cache drive which makes it boot and respond much quicker.

The ssd's are raided together so you can't tell them apart through the software and the OS is installed on them. The other drive is called Data and is completely free.

No it is SATA II judging from my current SSD speeds.I am using it now and wish I knew before purchasing...

It's SATA. I know this because I had to open mine up to extract the hard drive.Sadly.

Is it a desktop? I needed a SATA power source in my PC I just built for the SSD but not in my laptop.

As far as I know it is SATA III but remember it is very difficult to replace the drive. You must completely disassemble the machine since the drive is on top of the board next to the keyboard, not on the underside like most laptops.

Your answer to both is yes because SATA is Serial ATA drive. Happy hunting.

SSD stands for Solid State Drive. SATA is the type connection it uses to connect to the motherboard. You want your SSD to use SATA III type connection. Be sure its SATA III which is a 6 gb/s data transfer connection.

Just like everyone else is saying. Make sure you're comp is SATA III and you can find that out by lookin on your Motherboard, or the box it came with or an internet search
