Built with the 15nm TLC NAND flash technology from Toshiba, the Trion 150 series continues to deliver the balance of reliability, endurance and value of its predecessor, Trion 100, with increased real world performance.

Offering an easy and affordable way for entry-level users to enhance their mobile or desktop systems, Trion 150 SSDs provide a superior computing experience, enabling increased multitasking and productivity over traditional HDDs. Rated for sequential read speeds up to 550MB/s, sequential write speeds up to 530MB/s and random write I/O performance up to 91,000 IO/s, the Trion 150 series help improve boot time, system responsiveness and optimize storage operations.

Designed for value oriented mainstream consumers with varying storage needs, the Trion 150 will be available in capacities of 120GB, 240GB, 480GB, and 960GB. Additionally, the SSDs provide endurance with up to 240TB total bytes written (TBW), providing peace of mind when using more write-intensive applications.

“Our Trion 100 series SSDs quickly became a top seller for us and are popular among end users seeking a performance boost over HDDs at a very reasonable price,” said Steve Fingerhut, senior VP and GM of SSD BU, Toshiba America Electronics Corporation. “We are continually looking for ways to improve both SSD real world performance and value to end users and are pleased to introduce the new Trion 150 series which leverages the latest Toshiba 15nm TLC NAND flash to deliver an even better storage solution for value oriented mobile and desktop users.“

This approach to service provides peace of mind with a worry-free customer service experience which eliminates all the hassle and cost surrounding traditional support and warranty claims consumers often have to deal with.
