1TB PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe SSD

The Bestoss GM228 is a 1TB M.2 2280 internal solid-state drive that uses a PCIe 3.0 x4 interface and the NVMe protocol. It is built with 3D NAND flash and operates without a DRAM cache, relying on host memory buffer technology. The drive targets consumers who want faster boot times and application loading on a desktop or laptop.

Sustained write behaviour with dynamic SLC cache

Sequential reads reach up to 2200 MBps and sequential writes up to 1500 MBps. A dynamic SLC cache absorbs burst workloads before the drive writes directly to TLC NAND. The manufacturer states the SSD has passed an 88 hour endurance test, indicating stable performance during prolonged transfers rather than only in short bursts.

Thermals, noise and power draw

With no moving parts the drive runs silently in normal use. The DRAM-less design and PCIe 3.0 x4 link keep power consumption modest for a 1TB NVMe device. Heat output stays low enough for typical laptop or desktop M.2 slots without requiring additional cooling.

Questions about this item

How much power does the Bestoss GM228 draw and does it run hot during all-day use?

The drive uses PCIe 3.0 x4 with HMB and dynamic SLC cache, a DRAM-less design that keeps power draw low and heat minimal during continuous operation; it passed an 88-hour endurance test without throttling.

What slot and protocol must my motherboard provide for this M.2 2280 NVMe drive to work?

Your board needs an M.2 2280 key-M slot wired for PCIe 3.0 x4 (NVMe); the drive is also recognised on PCIe 4.0 slots but will run at Gen 3 speeds.

Will the GM228 slow down if I keep it alongside an older PCIe 3.0 drive on the same motherboard?

Each M.2 slot negotiates its own link; the GM228 will run at its rated PCIe 3.0 x4 speeds regardless of other drives, provided the chipset or CPU allocates enough lanes.
