VERBATIM

VERBATIM Vi3000 512GB Internal SSD

SKU CH-4VXN-QM5CF

512 GB NVMe internal SSD with sequential read speeds up to 3100 MB/s and write speeds up to 2100 MB/s in an M.2 2280 form factor

  • Fast sequential reads up to 3100 MB/s for quick file access
  • Sustained writes up to 2100 MB/s speed up large transfers
  • Low power draw extends laptop battery life
  • PCIe NVMe 3.0 x4 interface delivers up to 6× SATA speed
  • High IOPS — 150 000 read and 110 000 write — handles heavy workloads

Capacity and interface

The Verbatim Vi3000 is a 512GB internal SSD using a PCIe NVMe Gen 3.0 x4 interface in the M.2 2280 form factor. It delivers sequential read speeds up to 3100MB/s and write speeds up to 2100MB/s. Random performance reaches 150,000 read IOPS and 110,000 write IOPS.

Suitable uses and limits

This drive suits users upgrading a laptop or desktop with an M.2 NVMe slot who want faster boot times and application loading. It does not work with SATA-only M.2 slots or systems lacking a PCIe Gen 3 x4 NVMe controller. Buyers needing higher capacities or PCIe Gen 4 speeds should consider other options.

Deciding specification

The PCIe NVMe Gen 3.0 x4 interface determines compatibility; the system must provide an M.2 key-M slot wired for NVMe. Without that slot the drive cannot be installed or used.

Questions about this item

What sequential write speed can the Vi3000 sustain before thermal limits appear?

The drive is rated for sequential writes up to 2100 MB/s; sustained workloads at that rate may trigger thermal throttling depending on the host system's cooling.

How much power does the 512 GB Vi3000 draw and how hot does it run under all-day load?

The M.2 2280 module uses a low-power PCIe NVMe Gen 3.0 x4 controller, so heat output stays modest and typical laptop cooling is sufficient for continuous operation.

Which motherboard slot and protocol must my system already provide for this SSD to function?

An M.2 2280 key-M slot wired for PCIe NVMe Gen 3.0 x4 is required; SATA-only M.2 sockets will not work with the Vi3000.
