Transcend TS256GMTS960T 256 GB Solid State Drive – M.2 2280 Internal – SATA (SATA/600)

MTS960T & MTS960T-I

Transcend's industrial M.2 DRAM-less SSD MTS960T features the SATA III 6Gb/s interface and state-of-the-art 3D NAND technology, which allows 112 layers of 3D NAND flash chips to be vertically stacked. Compared to 3D NAND at 96 layers, this density breakthrough greatly improves storage efficiency. The MTS960T can operate in an extended temperature range from -20°C to 75°C. Its space-saving M.2 form factor is ideal for space-limited devices. It is fully tested in-house to guarantee reliability in mission-critical applications, boasting an endurance rating of 3K Program/Erase cycles.

Transcend also offers the MTS960T-I with wide temperature (-40? ~ 85?) capabilities to ensure sustained functionality, enhanced endurance and optimal reliability in mission-critical applications.
