THE SLIM S70 240GB

Just like the Slim S55 and S60 models the S70 model is also a 7mm thin SSD housed inside a 2.5" aluminum housing that has both the company logo and model capacity printed at the top.

Once again we see several certification logos at the bottom along with the warranty sticker (if you decide to open the housing you are voiding your warranty).

Naturally the usual SATA power and data connectors are present at the rear.

As we've mentioned in past reviews accessing the interior of the SSD is very easy since Silicon Power uses standard Philips screws to secure it.

The rear side of the PCB is empty but the 8 spots are obviously there for use with the highest capacity model of the S70 line (480GB).

On the opposite side we see 8 SanDisk 24nm Toggle MLC NAND flash memory modules each 32GB in capacity (this results to 256GB but 16GB are used by the SandForce controller for its firmware and overprovisioning needs).

The SandForce SF-2281 NAND flash controller is also present here.
