KingSpec XG 7000 8TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD

This internal solid-state drive delivers up to 7400MBps sequential read and 6600MBps sequential write speeds over a PCI-Express 4.0 x4 interface with NVMe 1.4 protocol. It uses 3D NAND flash to provide an 8TB capacity suitable for desktops, laptops and PS5 consoles. The M.2 2280 form factor measures 80.0mm by 22.0mm by 2.1mm and is rated for 4000TB written and 1,000,000 hours MTBF.

Check motherboard M.2 slot key and PCIe generation

Verify that your system has an M-keyed M.2 2280 slot wired for PCIe 4.0 x4 to reach the advertised 7400MBps read and 6600MBps write performance. The drive is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 slots, though speeds will be limited to the older generation. Ensure the operating system supports NVMe 1.4 and that the BIOS is updated for full device recognition. Physical clearance of 2.1mm height must be available in the target chassis or PS5 expansion bay.

Thermals noise and power draw in normal use

Idle power consumption is 0.66W while active use draws up to 8.18W under sustained workloads. The graphene-based thermal spreader dissipates heat without a moving fan, so the drive produces no audible noise during operation. Intelligent thermal control algorithms dynamically adjust workload to maintain stable temperatures during extended gaming, editing or large file transfers.

Questions about this item

Does the XG 7000 8TB come with a heatsink or do I need to buy one separately?

The drive has an integrated graphene-based heat spreader built in, so no separate heatsink purchase is required for installation.

Should I pick the 8TB model or a smaller capacity for my PS5?

The 8TB version provides the maximum 4000TBW endurance and 7400MB/s read speed, making it the best choice for large game libraries.

Will I actually see 7400MB/s speeds in my desktop?

Real-world throughput reaches the rated 7400MB/s read and 6600MB/s write on a PCIe 4.0 x4 slot; on a 3.0 slot speeds are limited by the bus.
