Features
High-Throughput PCIe® 4.0 Architecture: Capitalizes on PCIe Gen 4x4 bandwidth to accelerate boot times, large-scale media file transfers, and creator suite loading sequences.
Intelligent Caching with nCache™ 4.0: Coordinates multi-tier caching algorithms to sustain high burst write speeds and prevent bottlenecking during heavy multi-application rendering.
Next-Gen 8th Generation BiCS QLC 3D CBA NAND: Implements CMOS-Bonded-to-Array (CBA) NAND technology to maximize storage density and efficiency without sacrificing system endurance.
Thermal & Power Efficiency: Lowers power consumption during peak load conditions, keeping compact laptops cool and operational during mobile field production.
Turnkey Drive Migration: Includes downloadable Acronis® True Image™ for SANDISK software to streamline OS cloning, partition backup, and drive replacement.
Proactive Drive Diagnostics: Integrates with the downloadable SANDISK Dashboard application on Windows to monitor drive health, monitor operating temperatures, and execute firmware updates.
Long-Term Deployment Security: Safeguarded by SanDisk’s 5-Year Limited Warranty for total hardware assurance across B2B and B2C installations.
