Designed for Mac expansion

The Transcend 256 GB JetDrive Lite 130 is a memory card built to sit flush in the SD card slot of compatible MacBook models. It adds 256GB of extra storage without protruding from the chassis, making it suited to users who want a semi-permanent capacity boost for media libraries or project files.

Sustained write performance

The card uses standard flash memory appropriate for sequential media recording and file transfers. Under continuous load it maintains consistent throughput for tasks such as video capture or large batch copies, avoiding the sharp slowdown seen in lower-tier media after the initial cache fills.

Flush fit and daily handling

Because the card sits level with the case edge, it does not catch on bag liners or snag when the laptop is moved. The low-profile design means it can remain inserted during transport, removing the need to eject and reinsert the card each session while leaving the port available for other uses when required.

Questions about this item

Does the JetDrive Lite 130 generate noticeable heat during continuous read or write sessions?

The card has no moving parts and draws minimal power from the slot, so it stays cool even after hours of sustained transfers.

Which MacBook models accept the JetDrive Lite 130 without an adapter?

It fits flush into the SDXC slot on MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models that shipped with a full-size SD card reader.

Will the 256 GB JetDrive Lite 130 work reliably in a 2018 laptop that only supports SDHC cards?

The card follows the SDXC standard, so a host limited to SDHC will not recognise its full capacity.
