An entry SATA drive with the controller and endurance spelled out.
The MSI SPATIUM S270 is a 240GB 2.5" SATA III drive for desktops and notebooks that still boot off a hard disk. At 240GB it is a boot and applications drive rather than a games library, and it slots into any standard 2.5" bay with SATA data and power. Five years of warranty at this price is the notable part.
Key Features
- Up to 500MB/s read and 400MB/s write: real SATA III sequential figures, several times what a mechanical drive manages.
- 50,000 read / 80,000 write random IOPS: the random performance that makes boot and application launches feel instant.
- PHISON S11 controller with 3D NAND: both stated by MSI, so you know what is actually inside the drive.
- 110TB written endurance: a published TBW rating, with an MTBF figure of up to 2,000,000 hours.
- LDPC ECC, S.M.A.R.T. and TRIM: error correction, health reporting and background housekeeping, plus end-to-end data protection and over-provisioning.
- 1.7W maximum operating power: light enough not to eat into notebook battery life.
- Backwards compatible: works on SATA III, II and I ports, at whatever that port supports.

Questions
Before you buy
Will this drive fit my motherboard?
It connects over SATA III in the 2.5 inch form factor. Check that your board has a free slot of that type - an M.2 drive needs an M.2 socket of the right length, a SATA drive needs a SATA port and a power lead from the supply. A drive will still work in a slower slot than it is rated for, it just will not reach its full speed.
How much will actually fit on it?
It is a 240GB drive. Formatted capacity always reads a little lower than the number on the box because drive makers count in decimal gigabytes and Windows reports binary ones - that is normal and not a fault. Leaving roughly ten percent free also helps an SSD hold its write speed over time.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
This one is out of stock at the moment. Stock does come back in - WhatsApp us on 079 491 0181 with the model and we will tell you what the supplier is showing and let you know when it lands, rather than leaving you to keep checking the page.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
