TRANSCEND 2TB M.2 2280 PCIe Gen3x4 M-Key 3D TLC with Dram

The Transcend PCIe SSD 220S is designed for high-end applications such as digital audio/video production, gaming, and enterprise applications that require consistent processing of heavy workloads without system lag or performance degradation. Utilizing the PCI Express Gen3 x4 interface, supported by the latest NVMe standard, 3D NAND flash memory, and a DRAM cache, the PCIe SSD 220S delivers exceptional transfer speeds.

Convincing performance for high-end applications
Transcend“s PCIe M.2 SSD 220S adheres to the NVMe 1.3 standard and utilizes the PCIe Gen3 x4 interface. This allows for the simultaneous use of four lanes for sending and receiving data, resulting in impressive performance of up to 3,500 MB/s for reading and 2,700 MB/s for writing.

The importance of the PCIe interface
PCIe (or PCI Express) is a significantly faster interface than SATA (or Serial ATA) for connecting SSDs to a host computer. It features one or more lanes, each consisting of a serial interface for sending and receiving data, and can therefore meet new performance requirements much more effectively.

The NVMe standard
NVMe (or NVM Express) is a host controller interface standard designed to meet the needs of enterprise and client applications that utilize PCI Express-based solid-state storage. NVMe offers superior performance characteristics compared to AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface), including scalable bandwidth, increased IOPS, and lower latency.

3D enhancement for outstanding results
Unlike conventional planar NAND chips, 3D NAND flash memory not only arranges the memory cells horizontally, but also stacks them vertically across multiple layers. This allows the storage density limitations of 2D NAND to be overcome while simultaneously achieving higher performance and endurance.

Better endurance, higher reliability
Transcend“s PCIe SSD 220S is designed with LDPC (Low-Density Parity Check) encoding, a powerful ECC algorithm, to ensure optimal data security. Manufactured with high-quality 3D NAND flash chips and a dynamic thermal throttling mechanism, the PCIe SSD 220S guarantees superior endurance and stability for high-end applications.
