HP 922347-001 16GB 6Gb/s SATA Multi-Level Cell M.2 2240 SSD

Description

The HP 922347-001 is a compact Solid State Drive (SSD) with a storage capacity of 16 Gigabytes. It utilizes the M.2 2240 form factor, which is a small, gumstick-like form factor measuring 22mm wide and 40mm long. This makes it exceptionally well-suited for integration into devices where space is extremely limited, such as embedded systems, thin clients, industrial PCs, or certain small form-factor laptops and tablets. This SSD operates over the SATA III interface, providing a maximum theoretical data transfer speed of 6 Gigabits per second (Gb/s). While 16GB is a modest capacity by today's standards, it is often sufficient for operating systems, boot partitions, or specific embedded applications that do not require large amounts of storage. The solid-state nature of the drive ensures faster boot times and application loading compared to traditional hard drives, even with this smaller capacity. The drive employs MLC (Multi-Level Cell) NAND flash memory. MLC offers a good balance of performance, endurance, and cost, making it a practical choice for applications that require frequent read operations and moderate write cycles. The absence of moving parts in an SSD enhances its durability, reduces power consumption, and ensures silent operation, which are all beneficial characteristics for the types of devices this M.2 2240 drive is designed for.
