Features


Superior Upgrade Option Transcend's mSATA SSD 230S adopts the SATA III 6Gb/s interface, DDR3 DRAM cache, and a powerful controller, providing ultra-fast transfer speeds of up to 530MB/s read and 400MB/s write for faster boot time and application launching time.	Up to 256GB Capacity Transcend's mSATA SSD 230S provides up to 256GB capacity, giving you more options to suit your demands while storing large multimedia files and applications in faster speeds.	Speed up loading times Dedicated to maximizing high-performance computing, the mSATA SSD 230S features maximum 4K random file read 45,000 IOPS and write 70,000 IOPS that delivers incredibly short loading times and almost instant response for heavy graphics and multimedia applications.


3D Expansion 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.	Save power. Fast response. The mSATA SSD 230S supports the Device Sleep Mode (DevSleep), a useful power-saving feature that allows compatible mobile devices to completely power off the SATA interface when not in use while maintaining a fast response time.	A New Level of Reliability The mSATA SSD 230S comes equipped with practical features, such as block management, built-in LDPC ECC, advanced wear-leveling, enhanced S.M.A.R.T., TRIM and NCQ commands.

My 12 yo Dell XPS 13's 128GB hard drive failed, and I was able to DIY replace it with a 256GB drive. Diagnostics quickly recognized the new SSD. A Windows 10 installation later, and I was back up and running as good as new. I've been around tech support for my work and have built desktops before, but this is my first laptop repair. It wasn't that difficult. With YouTube, I think many people could do it. Honestly, reinstalling Windows was the most challenging part of this DIY.

Works with my Raspberry Pi 4B+ Geekworm mSATA SSD Adaptor (V2)

Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2022

Style: TRANSCEND SSDCapacity: 128GBVerified Purchase

Was using this to test out creating a Minecraft server on my 8GB RAM Rasp Pi 4B+. With the Geekworm Pi adapter, it worked just fine. I was able to create the partitions and transfer the OS to the SSD. Sadly, I didn't do enough homework and learned that Pinecraft cannot run on a desktop environment OS like Raspbian, so I installed the corrected Ubuntu 21.10 Server arm64 for the pi on a micro sd card. Now, I just need to format the SSD, and transfer the micro SD card over, or do something else.
Final thoughts: Great price, the SSD works fine; as for temps I haven't checked yet. Doesn't seem to be running to hot under load.

does the job, a bit slow on writes

Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2021

Style: TRANSCEND SSDCapacity: 128GBVerified Purchase

Decent, worked without any problems in a Protectli mini PC appliance. This particular 128GB model is a useful size, large enough for limited storage, or a non-cramped system drive.

In straight-line, unbuffered testing (1MB blocks) I found it was much slower on write (128 MiB/s) than read (487 MiB/s).

As is typical for inexpensive flash-based storage, the numbers will likely wander with age ("lower" for writes), and be faster when managed with the buffering provided by an operating system. I consider Transcend a trusted name for consumer flash products, I've used a number of their SD, CF, and thumb drives.

mSATA itself is a bit of an oddity, a stepping stone between "regular" SATA SSD and m.2 designs. It's essentially SATA SSD without a case or cable connectors. That makes it a little cheaper and a lot smaller than SATA SSD, but not any faster. But its small format apparently caught on for some embedded applications like my miniPC.

Recommended if you need mSATA.
