SSD Disk KIOXIA EXCERIA PLUS G4 1TB M.2 2280 NVMe PCIe Gen 5x4 - LVD10Z001TG8

This is the KIOXIA EXCERIA PLUS G4 1TB – a high-end M.2 2280 NVMe SSD aimed at fast gaming and productivity configurations, as well as for PlayStation 5. It operates over the PCIe NVMe 5.0 interface and offers serious speeds – up to 10000MB/s read and up to 7900MB/s write. The memory type is TLC, which balances durability and price well, and the black design fits discreetly in most builds.

What you get: 1TB of space, which is a reasonable amount for a modern gaming system – your system, a few heavier AAA games plus work software fit without much thought. The high read and write speeds noticeably reduce loading times for games, large projects, and archives, while quick access to small files is enhanced by up to 1300000 / 1400000 IOPS. Support for TRIM helps the SSD maintain stable performance over time without "slowing down" after months of use. An MTBF of 1 500 000 hours is an indicator of serious reliability under normal operation. Compatibility with PlayStation 5 means you can also use it as an upgrade for your console without worrying about whether it will work.

• Capacity of 1TB, which is a good balance between space for games, programs, and files, without unnecessarily increasing the cost of the configuration.
• PCIe NVMe 5.0 interface, providing significantly higher bandwidth compared to older PCIe generations, if your motherboard supports it.
• Sequential read speed of up to 10000MB/s, which reduces loading times for games and projects and speeds up the transfer of large files.
• Sequential write speed of up to 7900MB/s, useful when working with video, archives, and large installations where frequent writing is critical.
• Memory type TLC, offering a good compromise between performance, longevity, and price for mass and enthusiast use.
• Up to 1300000 IOPS (read) / 1400000 IOPS (write), which improves responsiveness in operations with many small files – system tasks, multitasking, database work.
• MTBF 1 500 000 hours and a 36-month warranty, providing peace of mind for long-term use in a primary gaming or work build.
• Form factor M.2 2280 and color black, ensuring compatibility with mainstream motherboards and a clean, unobtrusive appearance without RGB lighting.
• Support for TRIM, to maintain constant speed and reduce performance degradation over time.
• Compatible with PlayStation 5, so you can expand your console's storage with a solid volume and high speed at once.

Who it's suitable for: If you're building a modern gaming or productivity setup and want a very fast system disk, this model is a logical choice. It's also suitable if you're looking for an upgrade for PlayStation 5 and want to gather more heavy titles without constantly moving them. It's not optimal if you only need cheap space for mass storage where speed is not a priority.

The combination of PCIe 5.0 interface, high read/write speeds, and TLC memory makes this KIOXIA EXCERIA PLUS G4 1TB a very sensible option for a fast primary SSD. Especially if you're already on a platform that can unleash the potential of PCIe Gen 5.
