MSI SPATIUM M480 PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 1TB internal SSD

1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive

The SPATIUM M480 is a 1TB internal SSD that uses a PCIe Gen4x4 interface and the NVMe 1.4 protocol. It is built around a PHISON E18 controller paired with 1GB of DDR4 cache and 3D NAND flash. The M.2 2280 form factor fits both desktop and notebook platforms.

Suits builds that need fast sequential throughput

The 7000 MBps read and 5500 MBps write speeds benefit large-file workflows, game installs and OS responsiveness. Random performance reaches 350000 read IOPS and 700000 write IOPS. The drive ships without a heatsink, so systems with tight M.2 clearance or limited airflow should verify thermal headroom before purchase.

Sustained write endurance rated at 700 TBW

The 700 terabytes written rating and 1600000 hour MTBF reflect long-term reliability under continuous workloads. LDPC error correction and end-to-end data path protection maintain data integrity during extended write sessions. TRIM and APST support help the controller manage performance consistency over time.
