The Perfect Balance of Speed, Capacity, and Value
This is the “sweet spot” drive for almost any build. The Transcend MTE115S delivers incredible performance on the proven PCIe Gen 3.0 platform, making it the perfect, high-value upgrade for laptops and desktops.
Fast, Reliable, and Durable
Unleash speeds that are 6x faster than a traditional SATA SSD. This drive delivers blazing-fast speeds of up to 3,200MB/s read and 2,000MB/s write. This means your PC boots in seconds, your games load in a flash, and your whole system feels “snappy” and responsive.
Built with high-quality 3D NAND flash and a high endurance rating of 200 TBW (Terabytes Written), this drive isn’t just fast—it’s built to last.
What It’s Good For
- The #1 “Sweet Spot” Drive: The 500GB capacity is perfect for your OS, all your applications, and several of your most-played games.
- Laptop/Desktop Upgrades: A massive, noticeable speed boost for any machine with a compatible M.2 NVMe slot.

Good to Knows

- CAPACITY: This is a 500GB drive. It’s the perfect “all-around” size for your OS, applications, and a few of your favourite games.
- FORM FACTOR: This is an M.2 2280 NVMe (M-Key) drive. Please check your motherboard or laptop manual to ensure it has a compatible M.2 NVMe slot.
- INCREDIBLE WARRANTY: This drive is backed by a 5-Year Limited Manufacturer Warranty.
