VisionTek DLX4 1 TB NVMe 1.4 SSD

The VisionTek DLX4 901706 is a 1 TB internal solid-state drive built for consumer workloads. It uses the M.2 2280 form factor and connects through a PCI-Express 4.0 x4 interface running the NVMe 1.4 protocol. The Innogrit IG5220 controller delivers sequential reads up to 5200 MB/s and writes up to 4775 MB/s.

Suits fast consumer storage; not for legacy slots

This drive suits users who need quick boot, load and file-transfer performance on modern desktops or laptops with an M.2 PCIe 4.0 slot. It also provides 256-bit AES encryption and Opal 2.0 self-encrypting technology for data security. Systems limited to PCIe 3.0 or older M.2 keying will not reach the rated speeds.

PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe 1.4 interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the PCI-Express 4.0 x4 NVMe 1.4 interface. Your motherboard or laptop must expose an M.2 2280 slot wired for PCIe 4.0 x4 to obtain the published 5200 MB/s read and 4775 MB/s write throughput.

Questions about this item

What motherboard slot and keying does the 901706 need to work?

The drive fits an M.2 2280 slot with an M key that supports PCI Express 4.0 x4 lanes.

Will the DLX4 run at full speed in a PCIe 3.0 M.2 slot?

It will operate at PCIe 3.0 x4 speeds, so sequential throughput drops below the 5200 MB/s read and 4775 MB/s write peaks.

How can I verify the 901706 is delivering its rated 370K random read IOPS after install?

Run a 4 KB random read benchmark such as CrystalDiskMark and compare the result to the 370K IOPS specification.
