VisionTek DLX4 Pro 1TB NVMe SSD

The VisionTek DLX4 Pro 901568 is a 1TB internal solid-state drive built for consumers who need fast storage in the M.2 2280 form factor. It uses 3D NAND flash and the NVMe 1.4 protocol over a PCI-Express 4.0 x4 interface. The InnoGrit IG5236 controller and DDR4 DRAM cache serve professionals, gamers and everyday users alike.

M.2 2280 form factor with 1500G shock rating

The drive fits a standard M.2 2280 slot and is rated to withstand 1500G of shock for 0.5ms plus vibration from 2 to 500Hz at 3.1G. Idle power draw is 0.3W and active consumption reaches up to 9.1W. Operating temperatures span 0°C to 70°C while storage tolerates -40°C to 85°C.

PCIe 4.0 x4 interface limits

Sequential reads peak at 7415 MBps and writes at 6800 MBps, while 4KB random performance reaches 730K IOPS read and 1.1M IOPS write. These figures represent the practical ceiling of the PCIe 4.0 x4 link and the NVMe 1.4 specification. Real-world throughput will vary with workload, host controller and thermal conditions.
