## Summary description

Transcend MTE260S is a high-performance M.2 SSD with 1 TB capacity using PCIe 5.0 NVMe interface and 3D NAND. It delivers up to 14,000 MB/s sequential read and 9,800 MB/s sequential write, suitable for gaming, content creation and heavy desktop or laptop workloads. Compact M.2 form factor and low weight make it easy to install in compatible systems.

## Long description

Transcend MTE260S PCIe Gen5 SSD is a high-performance M.2 2280 drive designed for demanding tasks such as AAA gaming, 4K/8K video production, and AI workloads. It uses the PCIe Gen5 x4 interface and NVMe 2.0 protocol, combines advanced 3D NAND flash with a DDR4 DRAM cache and a low-power 6nm controller, and includes a graphene heatsink to sustain fast, stable operation. Available capacities reach up to 2TB and the drive is supported by Transcend’s SSD Scope software for monitoring and maintenance.
Advantages
The MTE260S delivers very high sequential and random performance, significantly reducing load times and improving system responsiveness. Its PCIe 5.0 compatibility provides greater bandwidth while retaining backward compatibility with PCIe 4.0. The low-power controller and graphene heatsink improve thermal management and energy efficiency to avoid thermal throttling during extended workloads. A five-year limited warranty and factory reliability testing ensure quality and durability.
Key specifications

Random performance: up to 1,400K IOPS (read) / 1,000K IOPS (write)
NAND type: 3D NAND
Controller: low-power 6nm controller
DRAM cache: DDR4
Cooling: integrated graphene heatsink
Capacities: up to 2 TB
Software: Transcend SSD Scope
Warranty: five-year limited warranty
How to use
Install the M.2 2280 SSD into an M.2 slot on a compatible motherboard that supports PCIe Gen5/Gen4. Secure the module with the mounting screw and enable the drive in the system BIOS if required. Install or update Transcend SSD Scope to monitor health, firmware, and performance. For best results, ensure adequate case airflow and a compatible NVMe slot to take full advantage of PCIe Gen5 speeds.
Recommendations
Use the MTE260S in systems with a PCIe Gen5-capable motherboard to achieve maximum throughput; it remains compatible with PCIe 4.0 systems but will operate at lower bandwidth. Keep firmware and SSD Scope software up to date, and maintain sufficient chassis cooling to preserve sustained performance.
