Transcend MTE410S 1 TB (TS1TMTE410S)

The Transcend MTE410S is a line of compact NVMe SSDs in the M.2 2242 form factor, designed for thin laptops, ultrabooks, tablets, and portable gaming systems where the standard M.2 2280 may be length-incompatible. The Transcend MTE410S series uses a PCIe Gen4 x4 interface, 3D NAND Flash, single-sided component layout, and a bufferless low-power architecture that helps reduce energy consumption and simplify installation in compact devices. The Transcend MTE410S line is available in capacities of 256 GB, 512 GB, 1 TB, and 2 TB. Maximum speeds across the series reach up to 5000 MB/s read and 4300 MB/s write, but they depend on capacity: 256 GB operates up to 3300/1400 MB/s, 512 GB and 1 TB up to 5000/3500 MB/s, and 2 TB up to 5000/4300 MB/s. For random operations, the higher-capacity versions also deliver hundreds of thousands of IOPS, and write endurance ranges from 150 TBW in the entry model to 1200 TBW in the 2 TB version. The Transcend MTE410S supports SLC caching, LDPC ECC, garbage collection, and S.M.A.R.T., so the series is focused not only on speed but also on error control and operational stability. The Transcend MTE410S is worth considering for upgrading thin devices where a compact 2242 module, PCIe Gen4, and a wide selection of capacities within a single product line are needed.
