Transcend SSD230S 1TB 2.5-inch SATA drive

This 1TB internal SSD uses a SATA interface and a standard 2.5-inch form factor. It is built for personal, gaming and business workloads. The drive weighs 45 grams and measures 2.75 in by 0.28 in by 3.94 in. Sequential read reaches 560 megabytes_per_second and sequential write reaches 520.0.

Suits 2.5-inch SATA bays, not M.2 slots

This drive suits users upgrading a laptop or desktop that accepts a 2.5-inch SATA device. It will not fit an M.2 slot or a PCIe-only bay. Buyers needing an M.2 form factor or a PCIe interface should look at a different part.

SATA protocol decides compatibility

The single specification that decides fit is the SATA protocol combined with the 2.5-inch form factor. Verify that the target system has a free 2.5-inch bay and a SATA data and power connection before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5-inch drive with 0.28 in height fit my laptop bay?

The drive measures 2.75 in x 0.28 in x 3.94 in, matching the standard 2.5-inch 7 mm form factor used in most laptop bays and desktop trays.

What is the correct SATA installation step that people often skip?

Connect both the SATA data cable and the SATA power cable; the drive will not appear in BIOS if only the data cable is attached.

How long will the 3D TLC NAND last under typical daily writes?

The 1 TB capacity and SATA 560 MB/s sequential speed give ample write endurance for personal, gaming and business workloads.
