Transcend mSATA 1 TB Internal SSD

Transcend SSD, 1TB Memory size, mSATA Form Factor - TS1TMSA460T-VS1

This mSATA solid-state drive provides internal flash storage for embedded and industrial systems, delivering high-capacity non-volatile memory in a Compact module. It is intended for applications requiring robust operation across a wide temperature range and uses Advanced 3D NAND architecture with a SATA III 6Gb/s Interface to move data efficiently within constrained installations.

Features and Benefits:

• 1TB capacity enables large local data storage and buffering
  SATA III 6Gb/s Interface facilitates fast sequential transfers
  Industrial-grade construction supports prolonged field use
  Operating range −20°C to 75°C maintains functionality in extremes
  Low-profile 4.85mm height fits space-restricted assemblies

Applications

• Suitable for embedded controllers in automation equipment
  Ideal for industrial HMIs requiring local logging and caching
  Used for data acquisition modules in electrical test rigs
  Can be used for ruggedised single-board computer storage
  Suitable for mechanical monitoring systems needing sustained logging

What physical form does it take for integration on boards?

It adopts the mSATA form factor compatible with mSATA sockets and occupies a Compact footprint of 50.8mm by 29.85mm for direct board mounting.

Which temperature extremes can it tolerate in continuous operation?

It supports continuous operation down to −20°C and up to 75°C, making it suitable for environments with high thermal variability.

What type of flash memory is used and why does that matter?

The drive uses 3D NAND, which increases cell density and improves write endurance characteristics compared with some Planar NAND alternatives.

Is this device intended for internal or external installation?

It is designed for internal installation as a board-mounted storage device interfacing over SATA III 6Gb/s.
