Kingston NV3 1TB M.2 2230 NVMe PCIe Gen4 SSD - SNV3SM3/1T0

Kingston NV3 1TB M.2 2230 is a compact SSD drive aimed at modern laptops, mini PCs, and devices where every millimeter of space matters. It operates via PCIe NVMe 4.0 interface and offers up to 6000MB/s read speed, making it much faster than classic SATA SSDs and drastically faster than HDDs. The form factor M.2 2230 is key – this is the short format often used in thin machines and portable devices. With a capacity of 1TB, you have enough space for an operating system, applications, and a considerable library of games or projects.

What you get here: a combination of compact size and serious speed. Read speeds up to 6000MB/s mean fast loading of the operating system, games, and heavy programs, while write speeds up to 4000MB/s assist in working with large files – for example, archives, photos, videos, or virtual machines. 3D NAND flash memory provides better density and reliability compared to older technologies, and MTBF 2 000 000 hours shows a focus on long-term operation. Thanks to its small dimensions 30 x 22 x 2.3 mm and weight of only 2.8 g, the drive is particularly suitable for upgrading devices where a standard M.2 2280 simply does not fit.

• Capacity of 1TB, sufficient to hold an operating system, your main programs, and a large set of games or work files.
• PCIe NVMe 4.0 interface, which provides significantly higher bandwidth compared to SATA and older PCIe generations.
• Read speed up to 6000MB/s, to start Windows, your games, and projects noticeably faster.
• Write speed up to 4000MB/s, convenient for copying large files and working with heavy projects like RAW photos or videos.
• Compact form factor M.2 2230 and dimensions 30 x 22 x 2.3 mm, making it suitable for thin laptops, mini PCs, and devices with limited space.
• Uses 3D NAND flash memory for better density and reliability compared to older NAND solutions.
• High MTBF of 2 000 000 hours, combined with 60 months warranty, gives peace of mind for long-term use.

This SSD is particularly suitable if you are looking for a fast upgrade for a laptop or a compact system that uses an M.2 2230 slot – for faster booting, shorter loading screens, and smoother operation overall. If you have a standard desktop with space for M.2 2280, the larger form factor may offer more options, but for compact devices, this format is very valuable.

The strongest point here is the combination of speed PCIe 4.0, capacity 1TB, and miniature M.2 2230 form factor – exactly what you need when you don't want to compromise between performance and size.
