1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD

The Kingston SNV3S/1000GBK is a 1TB M.2 2280 internal SSD using a PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe interface. It delivers sequential reads up to 6000 MBps and writes up to 4000 MBps. The single-sided 2.30mm design fits tight spaces in laptops and desktops. MTBF is rated at 2000000 hours.

Ideal for everyday systems and compact builds

This drive suits users who want fast NVMe storage for operating systems, applications and media libraries in a small M.2 slot. It operates from 0°C to 70°C and draws less power than many Gen 4 drives. Builders needing sustained write performance above 4000 MBps or capacities beyond 4TB should consider other models.

1TB capacity with headroom for large libraries

One terabyte holds dozens of modern games, creative projects and large document archives with room to spare. Sequential speeds of 6000 MBps read and 4000 MBps write keep boot and load times short. Heavy video editing scratch disks or continuous multi-gigabyte transfers may saturate the write ceiling.

Questions about this item

Does my motherboard need an M.2 2280 slot that supports PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe for this drive to work?

Yes, the SNV3S/1000GBK requires an M.2 2280 slot wired for PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe to operate at its rated 6000 MBps read and 4000 MBps write speeds.

Will this NVMe SSD run on a motherboard that only has PCIe 3.0 M.2 slots?

The drive is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 M.2 slots, but sequential speeds will be limited to the 3.0 bus instead of the 6000 MBps read and 4000 MBps write rated for PCIe 4.0.

How can I verify the SNV3S/1000GBK is delivering its rated 6000 MBps read and 4000 MBps write performance after installation?

Run an NVMe benchmark tool such as CrystalDiskMark; sequential results approaching 6000 MBps read and 4000 MBps write confirm the drive is operating on a PCIe 4.0 x4 link as intended.
