1TB NVMe 1.3 drive

This PNY CS2130 is a 1TB internal SSD built for consumer PCs and laptops. It uses 3D NAND flash and an M.2 2280 form factor. The drive targets faster boot times and quicker application launches. Low power consumption keeps it cool and quiet during everyday workloads.

PCIe 3.0 x4 interface limits

The drive connects through a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 link with NVMe 1.3 protocol. Sequential reads reach up to 3500 MBps and writes up to 1800 MBps on that interface. Bandwidth is capped by the Gen 3 x4 electrical ceiling. Sustained throughput will fall below peak once the controller exhausts its SLC cache.

1TB capacity headroom

One terabyte holds an operating system, common applications and a large media library with room to spare. The 2,000,000-hour MTBF rating reflects long-term reliability for typical consumer write volumes. Heavy, sustained write workloads will eventually hit the sequential write ceiling of 1800 MBps. Operating temperature range spans 0°C to 70°C.

Questions about this item

Which capacity of the PNY CS2130 M.2 2280 should I choose for a mainstream desktop or laptop upgrade?

This listing is the 1TB model; if you need more space you would have to select a different capacity from the same series.

What does the 3500 MBps sequential read figure mean once the drive is installed in my system?

It is the maximum sequential read speed the controller can deliver over a PCIe 3.0 x4 link; real-world speeds depend on workload, thermal conditions and the host controller.

What interface standard does the M280CS2130-1TB-RB use and what does it cap in practice?

It uses a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 connection with NVMe 1.3 protocol, which sets the upper limit for the 3500 MBps read and 1800 MBps write ratings.
