With the Transcend SSD220 SATA III 6Gb/s Solid State Drive, you can significantly accelerate your system boot and loading times, thanks to transfer rates of up to 540 MB/s. Utilizing high-quality flash chips and sophisticated firmware algorithms, the SSD220 offers very high reliability. Additionally, the SSD supports the SATA Device Sleep mode (DevSleep), which reduces power consumption by up to 90%, thereby conserving your laptop's battery. The Transcend SSD220 achieves transfer rates of up to 280 MB/s when transferring random 4K blocks, making it ideal for use as a boot drive, loading the system and programs in just a few seconds. With the SATA III 6Gb/s interface and the use of an SLC cache, the SSD220 reaches up to 540 MB/s for reading and 500 MB/s for writing data. Apart from the extremely high transfer speeds, Transcend's SSD220 ensures high data integrity thanks to a RAID and LDPC engine (Low-Density Parity Check), a particularly robust error correction algorithm. The integrated wear-leveling function also contributes to a longer lifespan for your SSD. The SSD220 supports the SATA Device Sleep mode (DevSleep), extending your laptop's battery life when the SSD is not in use. DevSleep features an ultra-low power state, leading to greater savings in battery consumption as the SATA interface is completely powered down. With a remarkable response time of under 20 ms, the computer quickly returns to operational mode.
