Timetec 1TB M.2 2280 SATA SSD

This Timetec drive is a 1TB internal solid-state drive using the M.2 2280 form factor and a SATA III 6Gb/s interface. It employs 3D NAND QLC memory with SLC caching to deliver sequential reads up to 510 MB/s and writes up to 480 MB/s. The drive suits desktops and laptops that accept M.2 SATA modules.

Suits SATA M.2 slots; not for PCIe-only boards

The SSD fits systems with an M.2 socket wired for SATA III, including backwards compatibility with SATA II and SATA I. It supports Windows 10, 8.1, 8, 7 and Linux 2.6.33 or later. Buyers whose motherboards only provide PCIe lanes on the M.2 socket cannot use this drive.

325 TBW endurance rating

The manufacturer rates the drive at 325 terabytes written (TBW) alongside a 1,500,000-hour MTTF figure. This endurance metric, combined with TRIM, wear-levelling and ECC support, indicates how much data can be written over the drive's warranted life. Check your workload against this TBW value to confirm suitability.

Questions about this item

What length M.2 slot does the 2280 form factor require?

The drive uses the M.2 2280 form factor, so it needs an 80 mm long slot with the SATA keying notch.

How is the drive secured in a laptop or desktop, and what step is often missed?

Insert the drive at an angle, press it flat, and fasten the single retention screw; the screw is not included, so have one ready before starting.

How much data can be written before the 1 TB model reaches its rated endurance limit?

The 1 TB model is rated for up to 325 TB written (TBW) over its lifetime.
