Transcend has officially launched a new line of storage expansion cards designed for Apple’s MacBook Pro and MacBook Air notebooks. The new JetDrive Lite expansion cards come in four storage capacity variants including 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB.
The new cards are manufactured using top-tier MLC NAND flash chips that feature read and write speeds of up to 95MB/s and 60MB/s, respectively. They are also equipped with built-in ECC (error correction code), which automatically corrects potential transfer errors, and are manufactured using a special COB (Chip-on-Board) technique, making the cards resistant to dust and water.
As previously mentioned, the JetDrive Lite series of expansion cards are available in 64GB, 128GB and 256GB capacities and have MSRPs of P2,490, P4,490, and P8,490, respectively. They are available from Power Mac Center, Beyond the Box and Lazada.
