Transcend 500GB M.2 2280 PCIe Gen3x4 SSD
This Transcend internal solid-state drive provides 500GB of storage in the M.2 2280 form factor. It connects via a PCIe Gen3x4 interface using an M-Key edge connector. The drive uses QLC flash memory and operates without a DRAM cache. It is designed for desktop or laptop upgrades that accept this physical and electrical specification.
Suits builders adding PCIe Gen3x4 storage
This drive suits builders adding PCIe Gen3x4 storage to an M-Key slot. It is not for systems that only support the shorter 2230 or 2242 lengths. It is not for workloads that demand sustained write performance beyond what QLC flash and a DRAM-less architecture can deliver. It is not for buyers who need a drive with an integrated DRAM buffer.
PCIe Gen3x4 M-Key interface decides compatibility
The PCIe Gen3x4 M-Key interface decides compatibility with the host system. The motherboard or laptop must provide an M-Key M.2 socket wired for PCIe Gen3x4 operation. The 2280 length must fit the available mounting point. Without this specific socket and keying the drive cannot be installed or used.

Küsimused selle toote kohta
What motherboard slot does the M.2 2280 M-Key drive fit?
It fits an M.2 2280 M-Key slot that supports PCIe Gen3x4 electrical connection.
What is the common mistake when installing this DRAM-less PCIe SSD?
Forgetting to enable the M.2 slot in BIOS or selecting the wrong PCIe lane configuration, which leaves the drive undetected.
How does the QLC NAND affect long-term write endurance on this 500GB model?
QLC stores four bits per cell, so sustained heavy writes wear the drive faster than TLC; use it for OS, apps and reads, not constant video capture.
