1TB PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe M.2 2280 drive with 6000MB/s read, 4000MB/s write and 320TBW endurance
NV3 1TB
The Kingston NV3 is a 1TB internal solid state drive built on a single-sided M.2 2280 PCB. It uses 3D TLC NAND and a Phison PS5021-E21 controller to deliver up to 6000MB/s read and 4000MB/s write speeds for desktops, laptops and compact handheld consoles.
Replacing an older PCIe 3.0 NVMe drive or a mechanical hard drive with the NV3 brings sustained sequential reads of 6000MB/s and writes of 4000MB/s, plus 420,000 random read IOPS and 390,000 random write IOPS. The jump is worth it when game loading, large file transfers or video editing workflows need higher throughput and 320TBW endurance.
The thin, single-sided design draws a typical 3.2W active and 0.07W idle, producing low heat so no separate heatsink is required. It slots into any mainstream M.2 motherboard socket, supports 1000G shock and 20G vibration resistance, and frees up space in small chassis while providing 2,000,000 hours MTBF reliability.
Measured against everything we stock in Internal NVMe & SATA SSDs, at today’s prices. Recalculated every night.

Other versions of this model
The single-sided thin PCB design keeps the drive low-profile, so it fits most slim laptops and compact small chassis without a heatsink.
Many forget to enable the PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe slot in BIOS before booting, leaving the drive invisible to the installer.
At 320 TBW the drive is rated for heavy daily writes; typical workloads take years to approach that figure.
