The Angelbird ED381 SATA III 2.5" Internal SSD is a cutting-edge solid-state drive built to provide outstanding speed, reliability, and endurance for professional workflows that demand fast data access and robust performance. Engineered with advanced NAND technology and optimized firmware, the ED381 SSD delivers a seamless storage experience for desktop, workstation, and enterprise environments.
Exceptional Speed and Performance
Featuring a SATA III 6 Gb/s interface compatible with SATA II and SATA I standards, the Angelbird ED381 maximizes throughput with sustained read speeds of up to 560 MB/s and write speeds reaching 520 MB/s. These speeds allow rapid loading of multimedia projects, smooth transfer of large 4K and higher resolution footage, and quicker system responsiveness when handling demanding applications.
The drive boasts an impressive 90,000 IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second), ensuring files open instantly and workflows remain fluid even under heavy multitasking or high-volume editing load.
Enterprise-Grade Reliability
Designed for continuous operation in professional environments, the ED381 carries a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of 2.4 million hours, emphasizing its long-term durability. It incorporates sophisticated Error Correction Code (ECC) and Error Management System (EMS) for data integrity, significantly reducing the risk of file corruption during transfers or unexpected interruptions.
Additionally, the drive supports host power loss protection, safeguarding data against accidental loss when power outages occur, ensuring work-in-progress remains safe.
Endurance and Data Retention
Angelbird’s ED381 SSD is built with synchronous Multi-Level Cell (MLC) NAND flash memory, renowned for its balance of speed and endurance. It offers an outstanding endurance capacity, measured in Total Bytes Written (TBW), ranging from 875 TB for 480GB models to up to 14,000 TB for the high-capacity 7.68TB models. This endurance metric translates into years of reliable service even under sustained write-intensive workflows like 4K/8K video editing.
Data retention capabilities guarantee stored data viability for up to 5 years at typical room temperature (77°F), making it a trustworthy repository for important projects.
Thermal and Environmental Management
Equipped with adaptive thermal protection, the Angelbird ED381 monitors its internal temperature to prevent overheating, maintaining consistent performance without throttling. The drive is also protected against electrostatic discharge (ESD) and overloads, ensuring stability in a range of operational scenarios.
Operating reliably in temperatures between -20 °C and +85 °C, the SSD is well-suited for both office and fieldwork. Its shock and vibration resistance (1000 G and 2.17 G respectively) further assure the drive’s integrity even in demanding physical conditions.
Compact and Energy Efficient Design
The ED381 fits into a standard 2.5" (100.2 x 69.9 x 7 mm) form factor and weighs approximately 100 grams (3.53 oz). Its low power consumption—1.8 W idle, up to 6.4 W active—contributes to energy efficiency, ideal for minimizing heat generation and extending battery life in portable systems.
Silent operation enhances user comfort by eliminating noise and vibration issues common to traditional hard drives.
Versatile Compatibility
Thanks to full SATA 3.0 compliance, the ED381 is compatible with a wide range of computing devices and systems, including desktop PCs, laptops, and professional workstations. It supports SMART monitoring and TRIM commands, essential for maintaining long-term optimum performance and health of the drive.
