VisionTek DLX4 2 TB M.2 2230 NVMe SSD

The VisionTek DLX4 is a 2 TB internal solid-state drive built in the M.2 2230 form factor. It connects through a PCI Express 4.0 x4 interface using the NVMe 1.4 protocol. The drive is intended for consumer systems that need compact, high-capacity storage.

Sustained performance

Under continuous workloads the Innogrit IG5220 controller manages heat and write amplification through Dynamic and Static Wear Leveling, Garbage Collection and Global Wear Leveling. SLC cache and Data Shaping help absorb bursts before the 3D NAND settles to steady-state throughput. The drive draws 4.75 W active and 0.3 W idle while operating between 0 °C and 70 °C.

PCIe 4.0 x4 practical limits

The PCIe 4.0 x4 link caps sequential transfer at 4985 MB/s read and 4775 MB/s write. Random 4 KB performance reaches 195 K IOPS read and 289 K IOPS write. Endurance is rated at 1000 TBW with a 1,500,000-hour MTBF. TCG Opal Encryption 2.0 and 256-bit AES protect data at rest without host software overhead.

Questions about this item

How much power does the VisionTek DLX4 2 TB draw when active all day?

The drive uses 4.75 W during active operation and 0.3 W at idle, with an operating temperature range of 0-70 °C.

What slot and key does the M.2 2230 DLX4 need on my motherboard?

It requires an M.2 2230 slot wired for PCI-Express 4.0 x4 and NVMe 1.4 protocol.

Will the DLX4 run at PCIe 4.0 speeds in my older PCIe 3.0 system?

The drive is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 x4 slots, though sequential speeds will be limited to the 3.0 bus ceiling.
