SanDisk 250GB NVMe SSD for consumer builds

This M.2 2280 drive uses PCI-Express 3.0 x4 and TLC memory to deliver sequential reads up to 3300 MBps and writes up to 1200 MBps. Random performance reaches 190000 IOPS read and 210000 IOPS write. It suits everyday workloads and light content creation.

Thermals and power in normal use

Active power draw is 3.5W while idle states drop to 90 mW average, 30 mW in PS3 and 5 mW in PS4. The drive operates from 0°C to 70°C and stores safely down to -40°C and up to 85°C. Shock resistance is rated at 1500G.

Single-sided M.2 2280 frees motherboard space

The 2.38mm height, 22.00mm width and 80.00mm depth single-sided layout fits tight laptop or desktop slots without blocking adjacent components. Endurance is 150TB written with a 1.5M hour MTTF. Western Digital SSD Dashboard software monitors health.

Questions about this item

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

Insert the drive at an angle into the PCIe 3.0 x4 slot, press it flat, and secure it with the motherboard screw; the step often missed is enabling NVMe in the BIOS before cloning or installing the OS.

What maintenance or replacement will the 250GB TLC SSD need later?

The drive has a 150TB TBW rating and 1.5M hour MTTF; no user maintenance is required, but once the TBW limit is reached the NAND may enter read-only mode, so plan a replacement when the SSD Dashboard health indicator approaches that threshold.

What limit appears first under sustained heavy writes on this PCIe 3.0 x4 SSD?

Sequential write speed is rated up to 1200 MB/s; under continuous load the SLC cache fills and throughput drops toward the native TLC rate, while the controller may also throttle if the drive temperature nears the 70°C operating maximum.
