Đã đến lúc chuyển từ ổ cứng chuẩn giao tiếp SATA sang ổ cứng tốc độ cao với chuẩn giao tiếp NVME ™. Lựa chọn chúng tôi đưa đến bạn tới đây là ổ cứng ssd M.2 PCIE 2242 Toshiba RC100 240GB, với công nghệ BiCS FLASH ™ 64 lớp hiện đại kết hợp với thiết kế nhỏ gọn, SSD M.2 PCIe 2242 Toshiba RC100 mang đến cho chúng ta tốc độ vượt trội, tiết kiệm năng lượng và bạn sẽ thấy máy tính mình không còn chậm nữa
Tốc độ vượt trội hơn so với SSD chuẩn SATA
Giao diện NVMe được thiết kế từ đầu để tận dụng lợi thế của công nghệ flash NAND và bus PCI Express có nghĩa là nó có băng thông để mang lại hiệu năng vượt trội hơn rất nhiều so với các ổ SSD SATA
Tiết kiệm chi phí
Ổ đĩa NVMe thế hệ đầu tiên có hiệu suất cao, nhưng cũng có chi phí cao. Toshiba đã sử dụng toàn bộ kỹ sư có chuyên môn cao để nghiên cứu và phát triển SSD có hiệu suất cao với chi phí tối ưu.
Kiến trúc tối ưu hóa năng lượng
Tận dụng điều này giúp có được một SSD hoạt động cực kỳ hiệu quả, giảm điện năng tiêu thụ đi gần 1 nửa, SSD M.2 Pcie 2242 Toshiba RC100 dùng được cho Laptop Lenovo đời mới: X260, X270, T470, T470p, T570, P51s, Ideapad 320,320s, 520, Y520,720s, 700 và Huawei MateBook X ...
Endurance rates for the Trion 100 SSDs are listed as 30TBW [120GB], 60TBW [240GB], 120TBW [480GB], and 240TBW [960GB], and are based on the JESD219A workload, which is different than what they normally base the endurance figures on. Formerly it might be typical to see only 4K random write workloads used, but with the JESD219A workload, it is much more diverse in the file sizes. This is actually closer to a real world workload and is also what other companies base their endurance figures on. OCZ is currently testing their other products endurance based on JESD219A and endurance ratings should improve.
The feature list is pretty short, but by utilizing Toshiba’s controller there is DEVSLP support. It features idle time garbage collection and TRIM support as well. Its MTBF rating is for 1.5 million hours. Also, with this SSD you can utilizes OCZ’s SSD Guru, which is an SSD toolbox for updating firmware, monitoring the SSD, and even manually running TRIM.
The OCZ Trion 100 also comes with their now standard ShieldPlus warranty and this is valid for a length of 3-years. As we have stated in our past reviews, this warranty service is one of the best offerings we have seen and are glad OCZ have decided to go the route they did with it.
PACKAGING AND COMPONENTS
The packaging design continues on their new format with the photo of the SSD on the front with a sticker stating the capacity on the bottom right. On the backside it states the main specs, which we went over earlier.
Because it is a value oriented SSD, there are no included accessories, only a drive installation manual and contact support paper.
The overall aesthetics of the Trion 100 also follow OCZ’s other SSDs. The white and blue theme should go well with PCs those with white computer cases. The overall weight is 48g, which is very light and great for mobile use cases.
Once dismantled, we noticed that these SSDs are void of a thermal pad to dissipate heat into the clamp shell. Also, all capacities tested utilize 4 NAND packages and a single DRAM package, save for the 960GB model which has two DRAM packages. We can’t also help but notice that the overall PCB design is pretty similar to SSDs featuring the Phison S10 controller.
When it comes to information about this new controller, Toshiba is keeping things hush hush, all our efforts were fruitless. They were unable to disclose anything beyond what has been published about the Trion 100 in terms of specs and that we can refer to it as: Toshiba Controller TC58. Later on in the review we are going to test for some sort of SLC caching mode for writes, so be sure to check that out.
As mentioned earlier, they have gone with Toshiba’s second generation 128Gbit A19 TLC NAND. The amount of user addressable space is 223GB, 447GB, and 894GB per our samples. The Trion 100’s use Nanya DRAM cache that is a 1:1 ration of MB DRAM:GB RAW NAND, 128MB DRAM:120GB capacity, 256MB DRAM:240GB capacity, etc.
