IRDM PRO gen.2 SATA 2,5″ SSD

IRDM PRO gen. 2 solid state drives were designed for users, who demand the highest reliability and stable functioning. New IRDM Pro SSD is a refreshed version of our flagship disk Iridium Pro, which was already appreciated by clients from Poland and from abroad for its quality parameters.

Key features
  • Available capacities:
    256 GB 512 GB 1024 GB
  • 2,5" form factor
  • SATA III (6 Gb/s) interface
  • 3D TLC NAND Flash technology
  • 5-year warranty limited by the TBW* parameter and free technical support

High performance

SSD IRDM PRO offers solid parameters by reaching up to 555 MB/s for baseline data read and 535 MB/s for baseline data write. By using classic 2.5” form factor with SATA III interface, IRDM SSD can be widely adopted in older or less advanced applications that lack the PCIe connector or doesn’t require the highest level of performance.

Feel the difference

If your computer is performing slower than you like, replacing the HDD with an SSD is one of the most cost-effective changes you can make. It will completely change your computing experience. SSDs are faster because they call up data more rapidly, so they accelerate boot-up times and app loading. You’ll also experience less stutter when playing games, as the rest of your PC doesn’t need to wait for game data to load.

Reliable 3D TLC

SSD IRDM PRO gen.2 provides best-in-class performance and reliability. The refreshed disk is equipped with 3D TLC NAND Flash memory and an excellent quad-core PS3112-S12 Phison controller. Detailed firmware guarantee full software data protection, consistency and security during use.

IRDM Pro Gen2 is a refreshed version of the IRDM PRO disk with the same purpose as the IRDM PRO disk. The change that took place was the replacement of MLC technology with the latest generation of dies produced in 3D TLC technology. These dies show the same level of endurance during tests, and when combined with the latest Phison PS3112-S12 controller, they allow to have the same level of data transfer as IRDM PRO Gen1 disks. IRDM Pro Gen2 drives are still covered by a 5-year warranty, but it is limited by the TBW parameter, which varies depending on the disk capacity.

Both disks are based on high-quality components, which results in speed and endurance. The main difference between them is the built-in DRAM memory in the IRDM Pro disk. It is intended for professional applications, while IRDM is a solution for everyday use.

“The performance of the SSD is good and comparable to the high-end SATA III competitors. The GOODRAM IRDM PRO gen.2 is absolutely recommended.”
