Expert Features

• M.2 SATA — Not NVMe : This S201 uses the M.2 SATA / AHCI interface, not PCIe NVMe. It requires a motherboard or laptop M.2 slot that explicitly supports SATA M.2 drives and will not work in NVMe-only M.2 slots.
• 128GB Capacity : Provides 128GB of internal solid-state storage, making it suitable for operating systems, essential applications, lightweight upgrades, and compact everyday systems.
• SATA III 6Gb/s Interface : Uses the SATA III 6Gb/s standard for compatible desktops, notebooks, and all-in-one PCs with an M.2 SATA interface.
• Up To 550MB/s Read : Sequential read performance reaches up to 550MB/s, helping improve boot times, program launches, game loading, and file access compared with traditional mechanical storage.
• Up To 420MB/s Write : Sequential write performance reaches up to 420MB/s, providing responsive everyday file transfers, application installation, and system operation.
• Intelligent SLC Cache : Uses intelligent SLC caching technology to accelerate read/write responsiveness and improve booting, program opening, file saving, loading, and transfer performance.
• 3D NAND TLC : Built with durable 3D NAND TLC flash memory designed to deliver reliable solid-state storage with sufficient capacity and long-term everyday usability.
• 40TBW Endurance : Rated for up to 40TBW, giving this 128GB SSD a defined write-endurance specification for normal system and storage workloads.
• Shock-Resistant Solid-State Design : With no internal mechanical mechanism, the S201 offers better resistance to physical shock than traditional spinning hard drives.
• Desktop Compatibility : Supports desktop PCs equipped with an M.2 SATA-compatible slot.
• Laptop Compatibility : Suitable for notebook computers that support M.2 SATA / AHCI storage.
• All-in-One PC Compatibility : Can also be used with compatible all-in-one systems featuring an M.2 SATA interface.
• Windows Compatibility : Specified for use with Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, and Windows 11 on compatible hardware.
• Installation Accessories Included : Installation screws and a screwdriver are included in the package.
• 3-Year Service : Backed by fanxiang’s stated 3-year service support from “fanxiang” .
