    LOADING...

    The DATO ARS330 is a 512GB M.2 2230 NVMe SSD for compatible compact laptops, mini PCs, tablets, and handheld gaming devices, with PCIe Gen3 x4 speeds up to 2,500MB/s read and 1,700MB/s write.

    Recommended For

    • Owners replacing or upgrading storage in a handheld or other device with a confirmed M.2 2230 NVMe slot; check that the device also has room for this drive’s heatsink before buying.
    • Mini-PC, laptop, or tablet owners whose device specifically supports a single-sided M.2 2230 NVMe drive and who need a compact boot or storage replacement.
    • Handheld PC users who keep a smaller selection of games installed and want 512GB of internal NVMe storage; testing of 2230 drives in Steam Deck use found that practical game-loading differences between drives can be modest.
    • Users whose compatible system is limited to PCIe Gen3 and who need a compact drive rather than Gen4-class sequential transfer speeds.

    Real-World Use Scenarios

    • When a Steam Deck owner is running short on internal space, replacing a smaller drive with this 512GB SSD can leave more room for installed games and reduce how often they need to uninstall titles. Confirm the model supports a single-sided M.2 2230 NVMe drive and that the compartment clears the attached heatsink; the swap does not guarantee faster game loading.
    • For a compatible handheld gaming PC with a 2230 NVMe slot, the drive can serve as an internal-storage upgrade for a game library. The practical benefit is having more games stored internally; check the handheld’s exact drive and heatsink-clearance requirements before buying.
    • If a supported Surface device has a replaceable 2230 SSD and its service documentation confirms NVMe compatibility, this drive can replace a smaller or failed internal drive. That can provide more local space for apps and files, but compatibility varies by model, so check the device’s service guide first.
    • In a mini PC or compact laptop with an accessible M.2 2230 PCIe NVMe slot, the SSD can be used to expand internal storage for locally kept software and files. It is not a drop-in fit for 2242 or 2280 slots, and the device must also have room for the heatsink.
