Best friend for Apple gadgets
In 2019, Transcend announced an interesting line of JetDrive 855 external SSDs designed for use with Apple computers and laptops. The highlight of the new series is the Thunderbolt interface with a bandwidth of up to 10 Gbps, an official 5-year warranty and a price tag in the best tradition of Apple accessories. A regular entry-level external SSD will cost 2 to 3 times cheaper.
Thunderbolt interface
The body of JetDrive 855 is made of aluminium alloy, which is stylistically designed for Apple computer equipment. Dimensions are 120x31x18 mm, weight — 88 grams. To connect to a computer, a small USB connector with support for the Thunderbolt protocol sticks out of the case. If necessary, the drive can be removed from the case and directly connected to the motherboard of a computer or laptop using the M.2 port. In terms of speed, thanks to the use of modern 3D NAND flash memory chips and the PCI-E Gen3 x4 interface, the JetDrive 855 achieves an impressive 1600 Mb / s. However, Transcend itself immediately says that the speed is highly dependent on the specific model of MacBook or Mac, so the speedometer will not help here.
Useful JetDrive Toolbox Software
It is better to praise Transcend for another smart SSD management utility. In this case, we are talking about special software for MacOS called JetDrive Toolbox. The programme is a set of high-quality tools for maintaining the drive, diagnosing its condition and preventing performance problems even before they make themselves felt. In addition, JetDrive Toolbox regularly updates the firmware and calculates the estimated life of the device.
