PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe SSD

The FANXIANG S500 Pro is a 512GB internal solid-state drive built on the M.2 2280 form factor with a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 interface. It uses 3D NAND TLC flash and supports the NVMe 1.3 protocol for sequential reads up to 3200MB/s and writes up to 2800MB/s.

Laptops and desktops needing a 2280 NVMe drive

This drive fits any laptop, desktop or all-in-one that provides an M.2 2280 slot wired for PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe and runs Windows 10, Windows 11 or Linux. Systems limited to SATA M.2 or those requiring a heatsink such as the PS5 cannot use this model.

512GB capacity with 320TBW endurance

The 512GB capacity and 320 terabytes written rating define the usable space and write-life budget for this drive. If your workload demands more capacity or higher endurance, select a larger model in the 256GB to 2TB range.

Questions about this item

Which capacity should I pick for the S500 Pro?

The S500 Pro is offered from 256GB up to 2TB. Choose 512GB for a balanced boot-and-games drive, or step up to 1TB or 2TB if you store large media libraries.

What does the 3200 MB/s read figure mean once the drive is installed?

That is the maximum sequential read speed over PCIe 3.0 x4. Real-world speeds depend on the host controller, workload and thermal conditions, so sustained transfers may be lower.

What does the PCIe 3.0 x4 interface cap in practice?

PCIe 3.0 x4 limits the theoretical bandwidth to about 4 GB/s, so the S500 Pro's 3200 MB/s read and 2800 MB/s write sit near that ceiling.
