VisionTek DLX4 512GB M.2 2242 NVMe SSD

The VisionTek DLX4 is a 512GB M.2 2242 internal SSD that connects through a PCI-Express 4.0 x4 lane using the NVMe 1.4 protocol. It targets consumer systems, including Lenovo Chromebook models such as the MediaTek 11 300e Gen 2, 100e, 300e and 500e, where a compact 2242 form factor is required.

PCIe 4.0 x4 interface with NVMe 1.4

The PCI-Express 4.0 x4 interface paired with NVMe 1.4 enables maximum sequential reads up to 5200 MBps and writes up to 4775 MBps. That bandwidth reduces boot and application load times compared with older PCIe generations while fitting the power envelope of thin-and-light devices.

512GB capacity for OS and everyday workloads

At 512GB the drive holds an operating system, core applications and a moderate personal library without constant space management. Sustained write performance of 4775 MBps handles typical file transfers and updates, yet heavy video editing or large game libraries will exhaust the available space before the interface becomes a bottleneck.

Questions about this item

Will the 512GB PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe 1.4 drive need firmware updates or wear-related replacement during its service life?

The DLX4 512GB M.2 2242 NVMe 1.4 SSD has no user-serviceable parts; firmware updates are released by VisionTek when required, and the drive is rated for typical consumer workloads without a specified TBW figure.

At sustained load, does the 5200 MBps read or 4775 MBps write ceiling hit first, or does the PCIe 4.0 x4 link saturate?

Under continuous heavy writes the 4775 MBps sequential-write limit is reached before the PCIe 4.0 x4 interface saturates, making write throughput the first bottleneck.

How much heat and power does the M.2 2242 NVMe 1.4 module produce when running all day in a Chromebook?

The 2242 form-factor DLX4 draws power from the M.2 slot and operates within standard laptop thermal envelopes; no active cooling is required and acoustic output is silent.
