P34A60 256GB NVMe SSD

The Silicon Power P34A60 is a 256GB internal solid state drive built for consumer laptops and desktops. It uses an M.2 2280 form factor and connects through a PCIe 3.0 x4 interface. The drive is designed to speed up boot times, application launches and file transfers in everyday systems.

Capacity and headroom

With 256GB of TLC flash the drive holds an operating system, core applications and a moderate media library. Sequential reads reach up to 2200 MBps and writes up to 1600 MBps, which is sufficient for typical workloads. Heavy video editing or large game libraries will exceed the available space before the interface saturates.

Thermals noise and power

The drive operates between 0°C and 70°C with no moving parts, so it runs silently. Power draw stays low thanks to NVMe 1.3 support, Host Memory Buffer and SLC Cache technology. LDPC ECC, End-To-End data protection and a RAID engine maintain data integrity during sustained use.

Questions about this item

Will the PCIe 3.0 x4 interface work with a motherboard that only has PCIe 2.0 M.2 slots?

The drive runs at PCIe 3.0 x4 speeds up to 2200 MB/s read and 1600 MB/s write; it will operate in a PCIe 2.0 slot but at the lower bandwidth of that slot.

How can I verify the NVMe 1.3 drive is performing at its rated 2200 MB/s read and 1600 MB/s write after installation?

Run a benchmark such as CrystalDiskMark on an empty drive; sequential results should approach 2200 MB/s read and 1600 MB/s write when the SLC cache is active.

Does the M.2 2280 package include a heatsink or mounting screw, or must I buy them separately?

The box contains only the 256 GB SSD; a motherboard standoff screw and any heatsink are supplied by the system builder and must be sourced separately.
