SABRENT 2242 M.2 NVMe SSD 512gb, SSD 1700MB/s Read, 42mm PCIe 3.0 X4, Internal Solid State Drive, High Performance Compatible with All PCs, NUCs, and Laptops (SB-1342-512)

Product Information

At the core, an SSD is just a thin circuit board studded with flash-memory and controller chips. Why not design around that? Thus the M.2 form factor was born. But we're getting ahead of ourselves. No hay mucho donde elegir si necesitas un disco de formato 2242. Por casi 70€ por 512GB PCIe 3.0 se pueden encontrar discos del doble de capacidad, de marca y con DRAM en formato 2280. He tenido la necesidad de usar un disco de este formato y fue este el que encontré que no me planteaba dudas. Después de ver muchos modelos está claro que este Sabrent nano es lo mejor que puedes encontrar en PCIe 3.0 en 2242 en ese rango de precios, sin olvidar que es un disco DRAMLess. Al llenarse el caché SLC las velocidades de escritura pasarán a unos 50MB/s despues de escribir seguidos unos 80GB, pero si se deja unas horas recupera caché y vuelve a dejar disponibles unos 64GB rápidos. Esto es normal en discos sin DRAM, y este en particular lo hace bastante bien. Diría que es el mejor disco DRAMLess que he tenido (a excepción de los Samsung DRAMLess). Si necesitas escribir seguidos más de 60GB a menudo olvídate de los discos sin DRAM. Si no te queda más remedio como a mi, procura usarlo solo para el sistema operativo y aplicaciones. Tengo que decir también que estos discos se calientan menos que uno con DRAM y gastan menos energía, así que en el escenario de ahorro de batería brillan especialmente. Para datos y juegos, y cosas que quieras que vayan rápido (escrituras) usa un buen nvme con DRAM, no ahorres dinero en eso.

The first attempt was a new form factor called mini-SATA, or mSATA. The boiled-down essence of an SSD with the shell removed, an mSATA drive is a bare, rectangular circuit board. (Most mSATA drives relevant to upgraders measure about 1 by 2 inches.) mSATA drives fit into a special slot in a laptop's logic board or on a PC motherboard. As the name suggests, the slot is a conduit to the Serial ATA bus in the system. The interface on the drive end is an edge connector on the PCB, as opposed to the usual SATA cabling. The mSATA drive also draws all the power it needs through the slot.

The line includes The 22 mm width has been an established standard for almost all millimeters difference comes in the form of the length. From that perspective, the M.2 2242 SSD comes with a width of 22 mm, while the length measures 42 mm. Nowadays, though, many lean, premium laptops can make use of PCI Express-bus M.2 SSDs. (Just about all new desktop motherboards with M.2 slots also support PCI Express M.2 SSDs, too.) With these, you may see a substantive increase in performance in benchmark testing, but in most real-world usage, they'll just feel like a fast, premium SATA SSD.

This power-efficient drive gets high marks for raw speed, everyday application performance, a strong software suite, and hardware-based encryption. The heatsink-equipped version of this drive performed slightly better than the non-heatsink version (which we tested using our testbed's motherboard's heatsink) in most of our benchmarks. It doesn't quite merit the 980 Pro's Editors' Choice award, because other recent internal SSDs have outpaced it in our gaming benchmarks, but its overall capability makes this Samsung a versatile drive well-suited for creative tasks. Who It's For The Addlink AddGame A93 is a good choice for budget-conscious users looking for a high-performing general-purpose PCI Express 4.0 SSD, either as an upgrade for a desktop computer or to add extra storage space to a PS5. The ADATA XPG Spectrix S40 is an unapologetically bright RGB-lit PCIe 3.0 NVMe M.2 SSD that blings up your PC. Its 4K read and write speeds should keep most gamers happy, too. The ADATA XPG Spectrix S40G carries some respectable wins out of its duel with other competing drives we've tested, and it looked great doing it.

Make sure you know the specifications of the drive coming out of your system—and whether it's reliant on the SATA or PCI Express bus—so you can install the same, presumably roomier kind going in.

Compliant with M.2 form factors Type 2242 and 2280, Transcend's 3D NAND M.2 SSDs are perfect for use in Ultrabooks and lightweight notebooks. Measured at just 42mm in length, the M.2 SSD 430S makes for an easy upgrade to your computer, taking up little space while giving it a much-needed energy boost. The most common interfaces for the best SSD drives are SATA, PCI-E, M.2 2242, and M.2 2280. Of these, we will discuss the M.2 SSD drives 2242 and 2280 and find out how do they differ from each other. M.2 slots recently showed up as a designation of a new form factor for devices inside of your PC or laptop. These were originally called Next Generation Form Factor (NGFF), but M.2 has taken over as the dominant lingo for talking about these exciting devices.

You have access to an excellent and exceptional transfer speed of up to 560MB/s read and 160MB/s write. The best options for Ultrabooks, notebooks, tablets, portable gaming systems, and smartphones, they have been made to stand the test of time for the future devices. Support for Device Sleep Mode (DevSleep) and Intel Smart Response Technology (ISRT). This will ensure that the devices can completely shut down to save battery, while not sacrificing the response time.

SATA, as the most widely applied SSD interface, which is relatively mature than others. SATA includes SATA 1.0, SATA 2.0, and SATA 3.0. Different generation of interfaces run with different transfer rate. Theoretically speaking, SATA 3.0 bandwidth up to 6 Gbps, the maximum uncoded read-write rate can also reach 600 MB/s. The first two digits represent the width of your M.2 device. Here’s more good news. M.2 is standardized to 22 millimeters in width. That means your code will always look like “22XX.”.

In the Beginning, There Was mSATA...

South Korean memory-chip maker SK Hynix is a relative newcomer to the consumer solid-state drive market, but you would never know that based on its first offerings. The SK Hynix Platinum P41, a PCI Express 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD, is its best yet. It dominated our PCMark 10 and 3DMark Storage benchmark testing, setting several new records in the process. The P41 supports 256-bit AES hardware-based encryption. SK Hynix provides a clone utility tool, the SK Hynix System Migration Utility, for its SSDs, in addition to Easy Drive Manager software, which lets you see detailed information on drive health, run diagnostics, and erase the drive. And the P41 can be had for a very reasonable price in its 1TB and 2TB capacities. Who It's For One last caveat to drop in before we get to our product recommendations surrounds Intel's SSD line. Intel for a while sold a family of M.2-based storage products under the brand name Optane, in two very distinct types of drive. Intel's "Optane SSDs" were SSDs like any other, bootable drives that can serve as a stand-alone boot drive or as secondary storage. They were discontinued for consumers in 2021, but you may still see them around. (Intel sold its SSD business at the end of 2021 to SK Hynix, which spun it off into a new subsidiary, Solidigm.)
