Description
High-Speed Data Transfer
The Seagate ZP2000GM3A013 Firecuda 530 2TB M.2 (2280) Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCI-E) Nvme 4.0 X4 Triple Level Cell (TLC) Internal Solid State Drive is designed for high-speed data transfer. The drive utilizes the latest NVMe 4.0 protocol and a PCI-E 4.0 x4 interface, providing fast and efficient access to data. This allows for quicker boot times, faster application launches, and improved overall system performance compared to traditional hard disk drives.
The drive’s M.2 form factor (2280) is ideal for small form-factor devices, providing a compact and efficient storage solution. The NVMe protocol, along with the high-speed PCI-E interface, allows for sequential read and write speeds of up to 3,500 MB/s and 3,000 MB/s respectively, providing a significant boost in performance compared to SATA-based drives.
Additionally, the Firecuda 530 series features a TLC NAND flash memory, which provides a higher density of storage compared to other types of NAND flash. This allows for larger storage capacities in a smaller form factor, making it a great option for demanding applications that require large amounts of storage. The drive is also optimized for improved thermal performance, providing reliable and consistent performance even in demanding applications.
Triple Level Cell (TLC) NAND Flash
Triple Level Cell (TLC) NAND flash is a type of flash memory that stores three bits of data per cell, as opposed to single-level cell (SLC) which stores one bit of data per cell and multi-level cell (MLC) which stores two bits of data per cell. TLC flash is less expensive than SLC and MLC, making it a cost-effective option for consumer-grade solid-state drives (SSDs). However, TLC flash has slower write speeds and shorter lifespan compared to SLC and MLC due to the more complex data storage method. TLC NAND is commonly used in consumer-grade SSDs where the trade-off between cost and performance is acceptable.
Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCI-E) Interface
Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCI-E) is a high-speed serial computer expansion bus standard used to connect various devices to a computer’s motherboard. PCI-E interface is commonly used for connecting solid-state drives (SSDs) to a computer’s motherboard. The latest version of PCI-E, PCI-E 4.0, provides faster data transfer rates compared to its previous versions, enabling higher-performance storage devices such as NVMe SSDs. The version number of the PCI-E interface is denoted by the number after the “PCI-E”, such as PCI-E 4.0 in the case of the Seagate ZP2000GM3A013 Firecuda 530 2TB SSD. The “x4” after the version number denotes the number of lanes the PCI-E interface supports, where each lane provides a separate data path for increased data transfer bandwidth.
Firecuda 530 Series
Firecuda 530 series is a line of high-performance solid state drives (SSD) developed by Seagate. It utilizes the latest technology such as Triple Level Cell (TLC) NAND flash and the Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) 4.0 protocol to deliver fast data transfer speeds, improved thermal performance, and high reliability. The Firecuda 530 series is designed for use in demanding applications and small form-factor devices, making it ideal for gamers, content creators, and professionals. The ZP2000GM3A013 Firecuda 530 2TB model specifically uses the M.2 (2280) form factor and connects to a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCI-E) 4.0 x4 interface, further enhancing its performance.
