PCIe M.2 SSDs

MTE740A & MTE740A-I

Transcend’s M.2 SSD MTE740A is built with the BiCS8 218-layer 3D NAND flash, delivering enhanced storage density and an optimized architecture for outstanding performance and stability. Combined with a high-speed PCIe Gen 5 x4 interface, it fully unleashes the potential of next-generation NAND, ensuring fast and reliable data access.

The MTE740A is engineered for demanding industrial environments, featuring a 30µ" gold finger PCB, Corner Bond technology, and anti-sulfur resistors to reinforce critical components and enhance durability. Rigorously tested, it supports an extended temperature range of -20°C to 75°C, maintaining stable operation even under rapid temperature fluctuations.

Compliant with the TCG Opal 2.0 standard, the MTE740A is a self-encrypting drive (SED) equipped with AES-256 hardware-based encryption and LBA-level management, providing advanced data protection for sensitive information. Transcend also offers the wide-temperature MTE740A-I, designed to operate reliably in extreme conditions from -40°C to 75°C. It is ideal for industrial systems requiring consistent performance, durability, and reliability under heavy workloads.
