Transcend 480GB 820S M.2 SATA III Internal SSD

3D expansion to break through limits

Unlike the existing planar NAND chips, 3D NAND flash is a type of flash memory in which the memory cells are stacked vertically in multiple layers. 3D NAND is developed to break through density limitations of the 2D planar NAND, and thus can deliver a greater level of performance and endurance.

M.2 is a form factor that enables expansion and integration of functions onto a single form factor module solution. M.2 SSDs include a smaller form factor but with lager capacities than that of mSATA and half-slim SSDs.

Superior upgrade option

Taking full advantage of the SATA III 6Gb/s interface and built in with SLC caching technology, Transcend‘s M.2 SSD 820S achieves exceptional transfer speeds of up to 560MB/s read and 510MB/s write.

Load applications in just seconds

Dedicated to maximizing high-performance computing, the M.2 SSD 820S features maximum 4k random file read of 50,000 IOPS and write of 75,000 IOPS that delivers incredibly short loading times and instant response for heavy graphics and multimedia applications.

Save power. Fast response

The M.2 SSD 820S supports Device Sleep Mode (DevSleep) that features an ultra-low power state to conserve battery power by intelligently shutting down the SATA interface when not in use, while maintaining a fast response time.

Endurance. Reliability

RAID engine and LDPC (Low-Density Parity Check) coding provides better stability and reliability for data retention. Garbage Collection increases upto 20% of stability to manage the allocation and release memory for your application. Wear-leveling ensures data integrity during transmission and prolong SSD’s lifespan. SSD Scope software helps maintain a healthy SSD to prevent functional degradation, and predict problems before they happen.
