Transcend 1TB M.2 SATA III 6Gb/s M.2 SSD 430S meets the high-performance needs and strict size limitations of small form factor devices. It’s best suited for Ultrabooks and thin, light notebooks. With high-quality flash chips, DDR3 DRAM cache, and enhanced firmware algorithms, the 430S ensures optimal reliability.
Unlike planar NAND chips, 3D NAND flash stacks memory cells vertically in multiple layers. This advancement helps break density limitations and significantly boosts both performance and endurance.
Compliant with M.2 2242 and 2280 form factors, Transcend’s 3D NAND SSDs are ideal for Ultrabooks. Measuring just 42mm in length, the 430S easily upgrades your device without taking up much space—while giving it a needed performance boost.
Furthermore, the M.2 SSD 430S delivers superior transfer speeds thanks to its SATA III 6Gb/s interface and powerful controller. It reaches read and write speeds of up to 560MB/s and 520MB/s, respectively. When used as a cache, it improves boot times by up to 1.5x compared to traditional hard drives.
To further enhance performance, the SSD offers 4K random read/write speeds up to 85,000 IOPS. This feature ensures quick loading and near-instant response times in graphics-heavy or multimedia tasks.
Although compact, the 430S provides expanded storage without sacrificing space. Its M.2 form factor allows for high-capacity storage and integration of multiple functions on one compact module.
Additionally, the drive includes a DDR3 DRAM cache and essential features like:
Error Correcting Code (ECC): Corrects data errors during transfer
Garbage Collection: Reallocates data to free memory blocks
Wear-Leveling: Spreads data evenly for longer SSD life
DevSleep Mode: Reduces power use by disabling SATA when idle
Overall, Transcend’s M.2 SSD 430S is a powerful, space-saving solution packed with features that improve system performance, durability, and battery life.
