MTE712A & MTE712A-I

Transcend's M.2 SSD MTE712A is a self-encrypting drive (SED) that complies with TCG Opal 2.0 standard. Data is protected using hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption and sector-specific LBA (Logical Block Address) permissions.

The MTE712A features 112-layer 3D NAND flash and PCI Express (PCIe) Gen 4 x4 interface for never-before-seen transfer speeds. Its integrated DRAM cache enables faster access and its durability is reinforced with 30μ" thick gold PCB connection pins and Corner Bond technology. In addition, anti-sulfur technology ensures reliability in harsh conditions. MTE712A is fully tested internally and operates stably in extended operating temperature ranging from -20℃~75℃.

Transcend also offers the MTE712A-I with wide temperature capabilities (-40 ℃ ~ 85 ℃) to ensure sustained functionality, increased endurance and optimal reliability in mission-critical applications.
