Transcend 430S 256 GB (TS256GMTS430S)

The Transcend 430S is a line of internal M.2 2242 form factor SSD drives designed for compact laptops, ultrabooks, mini PCs, and other systems with M.2 slots supporting SATA. The drive uses the SATA III 6 Gbps interface, 3D NAND Flash memory, and DDR3 DRAM cache, which deliver stable data access in everyday and work scenarios. The series is available in 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB, and 1 TB capacities, making it suitable for both operating system and application installation as well as storage of documents, multimedia, and work files. Depending on the model variant, sequential read speeds reach up to 560 MB/s and write speeds up to 520 MB/s, which matches the performance of fast SATA SSDs and significantly reduces system boot times compared to hard disk drives. Dimensions of 42.0 x 22.0 x 3.58 mm and a weight of approximately 5 g simplify installation in thin devices with limited internal space. The drive supports TRIM, NCQ, S.M.A.R.T., Advanced Garbage Collection, DevSleep, RAID Engine, and LDPC Coding, which ensure reliable operation, status monitoring, and efficient load distribution across memory cells. The Transcend 430S line is well suited for upgrading compatible systems where a compact SATA M.2 SSD with low power consumption, consistent performance, and service technologies for daily use is needed.
