The EDGE™ Boost Express Solid State Drives (SSD) is an enterprise grade solution designed to replacement aging spinning disk hard drives. Utilizing the exceptionally fast PCI Express (PCIe) interface, Boost Express SSD are faster, lighter, more durable, and more reliable when compared to hard drives. Boost Express SSDs are both PC and Mac compatible and fully bootable—they will work in any system with an available PCIe slot (x2).

Utilizing a premium SandForce controller, the Boost Express SSD can achieve ultra fast read and write speeds of up to 825MB/s and 810MB/s respectively. In comparison to hard drives, SSDs can cut system boot times by 50%.* Fast read/write speeds, coupled with a 100,000 max IOPS rating, provide incredible performance gains in boot times, file transfers, and software application loading.

A traditional hard drive can be compared to a car—with so many moving mechanical components constantly in use, parts inevitably wear out over time. With no moving parts inside, Boost Express SSDs are more reliable and less susceptible to mechanical failures than hard drives. This also results in lower power consumption, lower heat emission, and completely silent operation.
The feature rich-SandForce controller comes standard with robust tools such as S.M.A.R.T., Garbage Collection, wear leveling, and ECC to promote stability and reliability. SandForce-exclusive functions— Durawrite and RAISE—further enhance data efficiency and increase the lifespan of the SSD.
The Boost Express SSD is quite possibly the best upgrade you will ever make to your system—make the switch from archaic hard drives today.
*Based on EDGE testing results. Performance may vary depending on OS, configuration, etc.


FAST—Incredible transfer speeds of 825MB/s (read) and 810MB/s (write) provide substantial improvements to boot time, file browsing, and application load time compared to hard drives.

SECURE—Full Disk Encryption (FDE) provides government standard 256-bit AES hardware encryption.*

DURABLE—No moving parts means a tougher, more reliable, and lower power consumption solution compared to a spinning disk hard drive.
ROBUST—The premium SandForce controller includes a full complement of performance and stability enhancing features: TRIM, ECC, Garbage Collection, S.M.A.R.T., Durawrite, RAISE, and more.
