    LOADING...

    The DATO ARS330 is a 1TB M.2 2230 NVMe SSD for users upgrading a compact device with a compatible 2230 slot, offering PCIe Gen3 x4 speeds of up to 2,500MB/s read and 1,700MB/s write.

    Recommended For

    • Steam Deck owners with a compatible M.2 2230 NVMe slot who want to replace a smaller internal drive with 1TB for installed games; verify that the attached heatsink fits the device before buying.
    • Owners of mini PCs or compact laptops with a confirmed M.2 2230 PCIe NVMe slot who need a 1TB internal drive for an OS, apps, and everyday files.
    • Handheld PC owners with a verified 2230 NVMe slot who want more internal room for a portable game library instead of relying only on removable storage.
    • Users upgrading a compatible PCIe Gen3 device who want a compact NVMe drive rated up to 2,500 MB/s read and 1,700 MB/s write, rather than seeking Gen4-class peak speeds.

    Real-World Use Scenarios

    • Steam Deck storage upgrade: replace a smaller internal drive with this 1TB SSD to keep more games installed and reduce the need to rotate titles; confirm the heatsink fits the device and plan to reinstall or clone SteamOS. The Deck uses a single-sided M.2 2230 SSD, and testing of other 2230 drives found a clearer load-time improvement over eMMC than between NVMe drives.
    • Original ROG Ally storage expansion: install the drive to hold a larger set of PC games locally, subject to the original Ally's 2230 NVMe compatibility and clearance for this SSD’s aluminum heatsink. Check the exact Ally model first; newer Ally variants may use a different SSD size.
    • Compact laptop or tablet drive replacement: in a device that specifically accepts a single-sided M.2 2230 NVMe SSD and has room for the heatsink, use the 1TB capacity for more local documents, applications, and offline files without adding an external drive.
    • Mini PC storage expansion: add or replace internal storage in a mini PC with a compatible 2230 NVMe slot to keep more applications and media on the system; confirm the device’s mounting point and heatsink clearance before buying.
    • Handheld game downloads and updates: use the extra internal space to install more games and updates. Downloads may still be limited by Wi-Fi or the game service, so a larger SSD does not necessarily make downloads faster.
