Lexar NM610 PRO 1TB M.2 2280 SSD

The Lexar NM610 PRO is a 1TB internal solid-state drive built on 3D TLC NAND. It connects through a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 lane using the NVMe 1.3 protocol and fits the M.2 2280 form factor. Sequential reads reach up to 2100 MBps and writes up to 1600 MBps. Random 4KB performance hits 188000 IOPS read and 156000 IOPS write. The drive is rated for 250TB total bytes written and a 1500000-hour MTBF.

Fits standard M.2 2280 slots with PCIe 3.0 x4 wiring

The single-sided 2.25mm profile sits in any M.2 2280 socket wired for PCI-Express 3.0 x4 and NVMe. No separate power or data cables are required. LDPC error correction helps maintain data integrity across the 3D TLC array. With no moving parts the drive withstands 1500G shock and 20G vibration across 10 to 2000 Hz. Operating range spans 0°C to 70°C and storage range reaches -40°C to 85°C.

Suits PC enthusiasts wanting faster boot

The NM610 PRO targets builders who need a straightforward NVMe upgrade over a SATA SSD. It delivers 3.5x the sequential throughput of typical SATA drives for OS, games and content libraries. Users requiring PCIe 4.0 or 5.0 bandwidth, higher endurance or sustained write workloads should consider drives specified for those tiers.

Questions about this item

When does the 250TB TBW rating become the limiting factor during sustained heavy writes?

The 250TB total bytes written rating is the endurance ceiling; once cumulative writes reach that figure the drive may enter read-only mode, so monitor SMART health under constant heavy workloads.

How much power does the PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe 1.3 drive draw and how hot does it get under all-day load?

The drive operates between 0°C and 70°C with a 2.25mm single-sided profile; typical active power for this class stays under 5W, so a motherboard heatsink keeps temperatures in check during continuous use.

What motherboard slot and keying are required for the M.2 2280 PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe 1.3 interface?

You need an M-keyed M.2 slot wired for PCIe 3.0 x4 (NVMe 1.3); a B-keyed or SATA-only slot will not work with this drive.
