Force Series LS SSDs deliver file transfer speeds of up to 560MB/s read and 540MB/s write, up to 10 times faster than standard hard drives. The new drives support TRIM, garbage collection, and S.M.A.R.T commands and includes built-in an advanced dynamic and static wear-leveling algorithm to extend the lifespan of the drive flash memory.
