Add a commentTranscend Information, Inc. (Transcend), a leading manufacturer of embedded memory products, has recently introduced a whole series of 112-layer 3D NAND solid-state drives featuring wide-temperature tolerance, operating stably from -40°C to 85°C and demonstrating remarkable endurance. The form factors include 2.5", M.2, and mSATA types, suitable for embedded devices, vehicle systems, and slim servers. With up to 4TB capacity, this rugged solution overcomes the challenges of extreme industrial environments, empowering applications in smart factories, modern infrastructures, and surveillance in the IoT era.
Transcend utilizes 112-layer 3D NAND flash to build wide-temp SSDs, which support the mainstream SATA III interface and the high-speed PCIe interface. With up to 4TB capacity, proven performance is delivered between -40°C and 85°C thanks to an in-house sorting process and rigorous temperature tests which ensure the SSDs can adapt to rapid temperature change and thermal shock. Meanwhile, anti-sulfur technology, Corner Bond, and 30µ” gold fingers are incorporated to enhance key component protection and effectively prolong SSD lifespan. All these features create higher reliability for demanding applications like roadside monitoring systems which are exposed to long hours of high temperatures, or industrial computers that have to ensure non-stop high-speed operation.

Add a commentWith the rise of high-performance computing (HPC), the demand for industrial product cooling has increased dramatically due to higher power requirements and heat generation in demanding industrial applications and platforms. In response, TEAMGROUP has adopted the VC (Vapor Chamber) liquid cooling technology, commonly for mobile devices, and introduced the industry's first M.2 SSD VC liquid cooling technology. The VC liquid cooling tube was redesigned from the ground up for PCIe M.2 SSD applications based on the high-speed transfer rates and heat generation patterns of high-speed PCIe M.2 SSD. The result is a liquid-cooled PCIe M.2 SSD with outstanding thermal performance that can sustain high-speed operation in harsh and dynamic industrial environments.
TEAMGROUP's N74V-M80 is an industrial grade VC Cooling M.2 SSD that utilizes proprietary liquid cooling technology (Taiwan Utility Model Patent : M626519). Through the specially designed VC liquid cooling tubes, cooling fluid is pumped to the heat zone of PCIe M.2 SSD controller. Heat is then transferred to the aluminum fin heat sink with a convective design via gas-liquid phase transition to enhance thermal performance. The N74V-M80 combines the functions of heat absorption, conduction, and dissipation to better transfer and regulate thermal energy. TEAMGROUP's industrial control T.R.U.S.T. technology ("T" for Temperature) ensures that its PCIe M.2 SSD products maintain excellent transfer performance over a wide temperature range of -40°C (-40°F) to 85°C (185°F). In addition, the TEAMGROUP N74V-M80 uses TLC Flash and supports the PCIe Gen3x4 interface and NVMe1.3 standard, providing write and read speeds of up to 3,400 and 2,500MB/s, respectively, and is suitable for industrial-grade HPC devices with adequate installation space. It can fully meet the high-speed computing needs while keeping it cool and energy-saving.
