Transcend's PCIe SSD 240S aims at high-end applications, such as digital audio/video production, gaming, and enterprise use, which require constant processing of heavy workloads with no system lags or slowdowns of any kind. Utilizing the PCI Express Gen4 x4 interface supported by the latest NVMe standard, 3D NAND flash memory, a 4-channel controller, and a DRAM cache, the PCIe SSD 240S offers superior transfer speeds that easily beat the competition. Transcend's PCIe SSD 240S follows the NVMe 1.4 standard and utilizes the PCIe Gen4 x4 interface, meaning four lanes are used for transmitting and receiving data simultaneously. Its 4-channel controller supports ultra-high data throughput, resulting in the compelling performance of up to 3,800MB/s read and 3,200MB/s write. NVMe (or NVM Express) is a host controller interface standard designed to address the needs of enterprise and client applications that utilize PCI Express-based solid-state storage. The NVMe PCIe interface consists of one or more lanes connected serially, which can best support data transmission between a host computer and an SSD.
