Transcend 500GB 240S M.2 2280 NVMe PCIe Gen4x4 SSD
Transcend’s PCIe SSD 240S aims at high-end applications, such as digital audio/video production, gaming, and enterprise use, which require constant processing of heavy workloads with no system lags or slowdowns of any kind. Utilizing the PCI Express® Gen4 x4 interface supported by the latest NVMe™ standard, 3D NAND flash memory, a 4-channel controller, and a DRAM cache, the PCIe SSD 240S offers superior transfer speeds that easily beat the competition.
Transcend’s PCIe SSD 240S follows the NVMe 1.4 standard and utilizes the PCIe™ Gen4 x4 interface, meaning four lanes are used for transmitting and receiving data simultaneously. Its 4-channel controller supports ultra-high data throughput, resulting in the compelling performance of up to 3,800MB/s read and 3,200MB/s write.
NVMe (or NVM Express®) is a host controller interface standard designed to address the needs of enterprise and client applications that utilize PCI Express-based solid-state storage. The NVMe PCIe interface consists of one or more lanes connected serially, which can best support data transmission between a host computer and an SSD.
PCIe SSD 240S features the new PCIe 4.0 specification. It supports a bandwidth of 16 GT/s per lane as opposed to 8 GT/s per lane for PCIe 3.0. Downwards compatible with PCIe 3.0, PCIe 4.0 unleashes a higher processing speed for your computer and guarantees lower system latency.
