  • Key Specs
    • Storage Capacity: 1000 gigabytes (Measured in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and terabytes (TB), this is the amount available for storing files, music, movies, photos and more. The total includes the capacity of the hard disk drive and solid state drive if both are included on the computer.)
    • Storage Drive Type: SSD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
    • Maximum Read Speed: 3500 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can read information; for example, opening files.)
    • Maximum Write Speed: 3000 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can write information; for example, saving files.)
    • Interface(s): PCIe Gen 3 x4 (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

Q: I purchased this 1TB M280CS3030-1TB-RB drive to upgrade my ASUS Q526FA Windows 10 Laptop. I need to clone my present harddrive (only 125 gig) over to this new one. What hardware and software do I need to do that?

A: To clone your present hard disk, you can use Paragon Hard Disk Manager or other similar disk cloning software. Unfortunately most of them are not free. If your computer has only one M.2NVMe port, you'll need an USB to M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure Adapter. Alternatively, If you don't want to buy an adapter, create a recovery disk from your current PC, backup everything in an external drive, replace the M.2 drive and do a clean Windows install. You'll need to reinstall your licensed softwares and game later.

Q: Question Is this compatible with a Mac book Air 2015? Also is this considered flash storage?

A: Apparently with an adaptor but I'm unsure about the length. Look up the type of sad your MacBook has and see if the length is the same and you'll need the adapter also.

Q: is this compatible with a mid 2014 macbookpro?

A: This would NOT be compatible
