512 GB NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 M.2 2280 SSD

The Timetec 512 GB NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 M.2 2280 drive delivers sequential reads up to 2,000 MB/s and writes up to 1,600 MB/s using 3D TLC NAND and an SLC cache. It targets everyday desktop and laptop upgrades where a standard 2280 slot is available.

Suitability and alternatives

This SSD suits users adding fast NVMe storage to systems supporting PCIe 3.0 x4 or earlier generations via backward compatibility. Buyers needing PCIe 4.0 or 5.0 speeds, higher endurance than 350 TBW, or capacities beyond 512 GB should consider other models.

Deciding specification: PCIe 3.0 x4 interface

The drive connects through a PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe 1.3 interface, limiting peak throughput to the quoted 2,000 MB/s read and 1,600 MB/s write. Verify that the host platform provides an M.2 2280 key-M slot wired for PCIe 3.0 x4 to achieve rated performance.

Questions about this item

What motherboard slot must my system have for this Timetec 512GB M.2 2280 NVMe SSD to work?

Your motherboard needs an M.2 2280 slot that supports PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe 1.3; the drive is backwards compatible with PCIe Gen 2 and Gen 1 slots.

Will this 512GB NVMe drive run in a laptop that only has a PCIe Gen 2 M.2 slot?

Yes, the drive is backwards compatible with PCIe Gen 2 and Gen 1, so it will operate at the slower slot's maximum speed.

How can I verify the drive is delivering its rated 2000 MB/s read and 1600 MB/s write speeds after installation?

Run a sequential benchmark such as CrystalDiskMark and check that results approach 2000 MB/s read and 1600 MB/s write; S.M.A.R.T. tools will also confirm NVMe 1.3 operation and health.
