Transcend MTS430S 256GB M.2 SATA SSD

The Transcend MTS430S is a 256 GB internal solid-state drive built on the SATA III 6Gb/s interface standard. Its ultra-compact M.2 2242 form factor is specifically engineered for systems with limited physical space, such as thin client devices, Ultrabooks, and select embedded systems. Utilizing 3D NAND flash technology, the drive provides sequential data transfer capabilities reaching 530 MB/s for reads and 400 MB/s for writes.

This SSD incorporates specialized features for data reliability, including Error Correction Code (ECC) and built-in Wear-leveling mechanisms to ensure drive longevity. Rated for 140 TBW (Total Bytes Written), the unit is suitable for typical consumer workloads in mobile computing environments. Further system benefits include support for the DEVSLP function, allowing the drive to enter a low-power state to conserve battery life during periods of inactivity, alongside a non-operating shock resistance of 1500G.
