M.2 is a form factor specification that was introduced in 2012 and designed to replace the mSATA standard. Tailor-made for law enforcement and security departments, the rugged and highly responsive DrivePro Body 70 allows 2K QHD 1440P evidence collection and wireless data previews and transfers.

This’ll give you a competitive edge in multiplayer with fast loading, plus fewer load screens, and reduced installation times. We want you to feel comfortable upgrading or building your own PC, or even just understanding the specs of your current set-up. PCIe uses four lanes for storage devices, resulting in data exchange that is four times faster than a SATA connection, which only has one lane.Good Things Come in Small Packages – Fitting almost anywhere, the Integral 2242’s compact form factor is perfect for giving a boost in performance to even the smallest devices. PCIe 5 drives are capable of tremendous throughput speeds (in excess of 10,000MBps) that should generate abundant heat, and the SSDs we have seen so far come with substantial built-in heatsinks.

slots where at least one supports PCIe, it's worth considering your secondary slot for an SSD upgrade. They are generally smaller than other comparable SSDs, such as the mini Serial Advanced Technology Attachment ( mSATA). As the successor to the Crucial P2, the P3 offers higher capacities and much higher throughput speeds at a lower cost per gigabyte, thanks to Micron's switch from TLC to QLC flash memory for this drive.mSATA was also unusual in that it piggybacked on an existing connector, known as Mini-PCI, often used for installing small onboard components such as compact Wi-Fi cards. The controller lacks a DRAM cache, which causes a performance hit in some SSDs but seemingly not the P3, which generally scored well in the PCMark 10 benchmarks. The Corsair MP700 Pro is capable of phenomenal throughput speeds, but only if you can find or build a desktop rig that supports the PCI Express 5. It is faster than its predecessor, the WD Blue SN550, and delivered above-average results in most of our benchmark tests, in a few cases even beating the Editors' Choice award-winning Samsung SSD 980.
