Gigabyte NVMe SSD, PCIe 3.0 M.2 type 2280 - 256 GB

The reason for this is not least the technology used, which was installed in this M.2 NVMe memory stick, including high-quality NAND flash, which ensures a TBW of 300 terabytes. Overall, Gigabyte brings fast and reliable M.2 storage for almost all application scenarios.

The features of the Gigabyte M.2 NVMe PCIe 3.0 SSD 256 GB at a glance:
– Modern M.2 NVMe PCIe 3.0 SSD with NVMe 1.3
– Storage capacity of 256 gigabytes of NAND memory
– Maximum read speed of 1,700 MB / s and write speed of 1,100 MB / s
– Maximum IOPS reading: 180K and writing: 250K
– MTBF: 1.5 million hours, manufacturer warranty: 5 years or 300 TBW (TB Written)
– M.2 NVMe PCIe 3.0 SSD with decent read and write speeds

The controller of this fast drive supports four PCI Express lanes of standard 3.0. In conjunction with the built-in NAND flash, this 256 GB variant of the NVMe SSD from Gigabyte achieves a decent 1,700 MB / s when reading and 1,100 MB / s when writing, as well as IOPS values of 180,000 in 4KB read and 250,000 in 4KB write ,

Highly efficient NAND with a long service life
The NVMe SSD memory is reliable and compact NAND memory. On the one hand, this enables larger amounts of memory with higher read and write speeds with a smaller area of the memory blocks, and on the other hand increases the lifespan of the memory and improves energy efficiency. In addition, this M.2 bar with a total capacity of 256 GB is only equipped on one side, which makes it more compatible and can be installed in many notebooks.

The M.2 NVMe PCIe 3.0 SSD supports the latest NVMe 1.3 protocol, LDPC error correction, wear leveling and over-provisioning to increase the lifespan. Gigabyte can therefore guarantee an MTBF (Mean Time Before Failure) of at least 1.5 million hours and offer a guarantee of 5 years or 300 TBW.
