Whether you need performance power for your games or fast processing of large graphics: with the SSD 980, you can enhance your computer's performance. The 980 is a smart and cost-effective choice for high SSD speeds, enabled by a PCIe 3.0 interface and NVMe technology. High speed thanks to direct PCIe connection. This SSD transfers data via PCI-Express, leaving traditional SATA SSDs far behind in terms of transfer rates. M.2 SSDs are installed via the M.2 socket on the motherboard. Due to their compact dimensions, they are particularly suitable for use in ultrabooks and mini-PCs, but can also be used in regular computers. NVMe protocol for lower latencies. In systems with NVMe support, this SSD shines particularly well. You benefit from high throughput, high IOPS, and low latency. Unlike the older AHCI protocol, which was developed for traditional spinning drives, NVMe prevents performance drops, offers faster transfers of large data volumes, increased boot speeds, and improved system responsiveness.
