How to use

Power down your laptop or device and disconnect it from power. Locate the M.2 socket on the motherboard (Type 2242) and remove any securing screw. Align the M.2 SSD 400S with the M key/notch and insert it into the slot at a slight angle, then press down and secure it with the mounting screw. Reassemble the device, power on, and enter the BIOS/UEFI to confirm the SSD is recognized. Initialize, partition and format the drive in your operating system, or use cloning software to transfer an existing system image. Install Transcend SSD Scope to monitor drive health and update firmware if needed.

Recommendations

Use the TS64GMTS400S as a primary system drive in Ultrabooks or as a cache/boot drive in compact systems. Enable DevSleep in supported systems to save battery life, and run periodic health checks with Transcend SSD Scope. For best long-term endurance, avoid filling the drive to maximum capacity and keep firmware up to date.
