We’ve made it clear before that we’re big fans of the design on these drives, much like the SanDisk Ultra SSD. It’s black, it’s sleek and it’s simple and that’s all you need. A large sticker sits in the middle of the drive with some very simple branding.
Turning the drive over, we a large sticker with the capacity listed, serial numbers and speed. It also mentions that removing this sticker will void the warranty, but we’re going to remove it so we can open up the drive anyway.
There are mounting screw holes on the bottom of the drive, as well as on the side of the drive, evenly spaced out.
Taking a look at the connectors, we find a slightly offset SATA data and power connectors on the end of the drive.
Taking the drive apart, we can see four NAND chips, with space for another four if SanDisk ever want to create a 480Gb model which hear may happen sometime this year.
Taking a look at the other side, we find a total of eight blank spaces, screaming out for some NAND. Four of these spaces are used on the 240GB drive, to match the opposite side. With the 480GB model, we will see all spaces populated. We can also see the LSI SandForce SF-2281 controller sitting comfortably.
