Dedicated to maximizing high-performance computing, the M.2 SSD 830S features 4K random file read speeds of up 90,000 IOPS to and 4K random file write speeds of up to 85,000 IOPS that deliver incredibly short loading times and almost instant response for heavy graphics and multimedia applications.

The M.2 form factor enables expansion and integration of functions onto a single form factor module solution. M.2 SSDs include a smaller form factor but with larger capacities than that of mSATA and half-slim SSDs.

Despite its extra-small dimensions, the M.2 SSD 830S boasts a DDR3 DRAM cache and contains advanced features to enhance the performance of the SSD.

Error Correcting Code (ECC)
Detects and corrects transfer errors to prevent data corruption.

Garbage Collection
Relocated existing data to release memory blocks.

Wear-Leveling
Distributes data evenly across memory cells to prolong the SSD's lifespan.

DDR3 DRAM Cache
Stores a temporary copy of the most active data to shorten access times.

DevSleep
Intelligently shuts down the SATA interface when it's not in use to prolong the device's battery life.
