Kingston Technology Corp. SNV3S/2000G 2TB M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 NVMe internal SSD

Kingston NV3 2TB M.2 NVMe

This Kingston NV3 drive is a 2TB internal SSD built for consumer laptops and desktops. It uses the M.2 2280 form factor with a PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe interface. Sequential reads reach up to 6000 MBps and writes up to 5000 MBps. The DRAM-less design relies on Host Memory Buffer technology.

Single-Sided M.2 2280 Build

The single-sided M.2 2280 layout measures 22 by 80 millimetres with a 2.30 millimetre height. This slim profile fits tight laptop slots and leaves motherboard space free for other components. Lower power consumption and reduced heat output help maintain stable operation within the 0 to 70 degree Celsius range. An MTBF of 2000000 hours indicates long-term reliability.

Upgrade to PCIe 4.0 NVMe Performance

Moving from an older PCIe 3.0 NVMe drive to this PCIe 4.0 x4 model doubles the interface bandwidth. The jump is worth it when workloads demand sustained sequential speeds near 6000 MBps read and 5000 MBps write. The 2TB capacity also removes the need to manage multiple smaller drives.
