Optimus GX PRO 8100 2TB SSD

The SanDisk Optimus GX PRO 8100 is a 2TB internal solid state drive built for professionals and gamers who need fast access to large libraries. It uses 3D NAND TLC memory and connects through an M.2 2280-S3-M slot with a low-profile anodized aluminum heatsink and RGB LED.

PCIe 5.0 x4 NVMe 2.0 limits

The drive runs on a PCI-Express 5.0 x4 link using the NVMe 2.0 protocol, delivering sequential reads up to 14900 MBps and writes up to 14000 MBps. Random performance reaches 2,300,000 IOPS read and 2,400,000 IOPS write, but sustained speeds depend on the host platform keeping the controller within its 0°C to 85°C operating window.

Motherboard slot and power check

Verify your motherboard has an M.2 2280 key-M slot wired for PCIe 5.0 x4 and enough clearance for the 9.76mm heatsink height. The drive draws up to 7.0W active write power, so confirm the board can supply that without throttling and that your BIOS supports NVMe 2.0 features.

Questions about this item

Will the 9.76 mm heatsink clear my motherboard M.2 shield?

The drive sits 9.76 mm tall with the integrated anodised aluminium heatsink; most current motherboard shields allow this height but check your board manual.

Does my platform need PCIe 5.0 to use this SSD?

The drive runs on PCIe 5.0 x4 NVMe 2.0 and is backward compatible with PCIe 4.0 and 3.0 slots at reduced speeds.

How much sustained write workload can the 2 TB model absorb?

The 2 TB version is rated for 1200 TBW, enough for heavy content-creation and AI workloads over the 5-year warranty period.
