Capacity and form factor

The GUDGA 128GB M.2 2280 NVMe internal SSD fits laptops and small form factor PCs with an M-key slot. It uses PCIe 3.0 x4 lanes and 3D TLC NAND for a compact storage upgrade.

Suitability and limits

This drive suits everyday computing, boot drives and light content workloads in compatible notebooks or desktops. Systems that need sustained heavy write throughput or larger capacities should consider other options.

Real-world headroom

Sequential reads reach 2100 MB/s and writes reach 1600 MB/s, with sustained rates of 1900 MB/s read and 1450 MB/s write. Random performance delivers 280K read IOPS and 250K write IOPS. The usable space is about 118GB after formatting.

Questions about this item

Does my motherboard need an M.2 2280 slot with PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe support for this 128GB drive?

Yes, the drive requires an M-key M.2 2280 slot that provides PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe lanes; without that interface it will not be detected.

Can I keep my existing 2.5-inch drive and add this NVMe SSD as a second storage device?

Yes, the M.2 NVMe drive occupies a separate M.2 slot and does not share connectors with 2.5-inch drives, so both can operate simultaneously.

How do I verify the drive delivers the rated 2100 MB/s read and 1600 MB/s write speeds after installation?

Run a benchmark tool such as CrystalDiskMark on the empty volume; sequential results should approach 2100 MB/s read and 1600 MB/s write.
