Apacer Technology Inc. PT220-M242 PCI Express Flash Drives

Apacer Technology Inc. PT220-M242 PCI Express Flash Drives are designed to deliver exceptionally low latency and outstanding performance in an M.2 2242 mechanical dimensions. These SSDs are fully compliant with the PCIe Gen3 x4 interface and NVMe 1.3 specifications to operate in different power-management modes while consuming low power. The PT220-M242 flash drives are built with a powerful PCIe controller that supports on-the-module ECC as well as an efficient Wear Leveling scheme. These industrial SSDs adopt advanced LDPC ECC engines with 3D NAND flash memory to improve reliability. The PT220-M242 PCI flash drives exhibit flash block management, S.M.A.R.T., TRIM, Hyper Cache technology, DataDefender™, and DataRAID™. Typical applications range from industrial, imaging, gaming, and computing to enterprise markets.
