1 TB PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe SSD

This PNY CS1030 drive brings 1 TB of 3D NAND storage to NVMe enabled laptops and desktops. It replaces a SATA SSD with a PCI Express 3.0 x4 interface that supports NVMe 1.3. Sequential reads reach up to 2100 MBps and writes up to 1700 MBps for faster boot up and quicker application launch.

Thermals noise and power

The drive operates from 0°C to 70°C and can be stored from -40°C to 85°C. With no moving parts it runs silently and draws ultra low power, helping battery life in laptops. The M.2 2280 form factor measures 22.00mm wide, 80.00mm deep and 4.00mm high at 6.60g.

Bundled value

No accessories or software are included in the package. The MTBF rating of 2000000 hours reflects the durability of the 3D NAND components. Buyers who need a heatsink, cloning utility or mounting screw must source those separately.

Questions about this item

How do I install the M.2 2280 drive, and what step is often missed?

Insert the drive at an angle into the PCI-Express 3.0 x4 slot, press it flat, and secure it with the motherboard screw; the step often missed is fastening that screw, which keeps the drive from lifting and losing contact.

What maintenance or replacement will the 3D NAND SSD need later?

No mechanical maintenance is required; the drive has no moving parts and a 2,000,000-hour MTBF, so replacement is only needed if the NAND wears out after very heavy write cycles.

What limit appears first during sustained writes on this 1TB model?

The sequential write speed caps at 1700 MBps, and the controller will throttle once the operating temperature reaches 70°C to protect the 3D NAND.
