Equipped with a SATA III 6Gb/s interface and a very compact design, Transcend's MTS800 M.2 SSD is perfectly suited for small applications that offer very limited space but still demand high performance. For this reason, it is ideal for modern ultrabooks as well as slim and lightweight notebooks. With a powerful controller, a SATA III 6Gb/s interface, and above-average transfer speeds of up to 560 MB/s for reading and 460 MB/s for writing, the M.2 SSD can handle both everyday routine tasks and demanding multimedia applications.

Key features:

• Space-saving M.2 SSD (80 mm) – ideal for laptops and ultrabooks
• Supports Power Shield function to prevent data loss during sudden power outages
• Supports DevSleep mode, which completely shuts down the SATA interface, saving more power than a conventional HDD
• DDR3 DRAM cache
• Supports S.M.A.R.T., TRIM, and NCQ commands
• RoHS compliant

Transcend's SATA III 6Gb/s MTS800 M.2 SSD supports Intel® Smart Response Technology (ISRT), allowing the SSD to be used as cache storage between the HDD and system memory. This provides the advantage of utilizing the maximum capacity of the HDD while maintaining the system performance experience of an SSD.

ISRT monitors the most frequently used programs and documents and stores them on the SSD. This accelerates the loading of applications and significantly improves the system's response time, while all other data and programs remain stored on the HDD. In this configuration, only one drive letter is displayed. The SSD functioning as cache does not have its own drive letter.
