Review on πŸ’Ύ Transcend TS256GMTS830S 256GB SATA III MTS800 M.2 SSD: High-Speed, Reliable Storage Solution by Daveon Jumps

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Hot temperature during startup. You need a heatsink.

Windows starts up and the drive reaches 59-63 C. After Windows is stable, the drive still reaches 41-55 C. This isn't NVME, and it is it already hot. (I have a Samsung and aData m2 SSD in 128G with no heat issues.) As a result, I added a heatsink. With a heat sink, the temperature drops from 5 to 10 C.

Pros
  • High support and durability scores from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
