Transcend MTS800S 128GB SATA M.2 2280

This internal SSD uses the M.2 2280 form factor with a SATA III interface and MLC NAND. It is designed for ultrabooks and thin notebooks that require a compact drive for everyday computing and multimedia tasks.

Suits SATA-only M.2 slots in slim laptops

The drive fits systems with a SATA-based M.2 connector and benefits users who want MLC endurance in a 128GB capacity. It is not compatible with motherboards that provide only PCIe signalling on their M.2 socket.

Sequential read up to 530 MBps, write up to 150 MBps

These speeds reflect the SATA III link and the controller used in the MTS800S series. The 128GB capacity and MLC memory make it a direct replacement for smaller mechanical drives in space-constrained devices.
