Vendor-rated sequential performanceUp to 14,500 MB/s read / 12,000 MB/s write; peak ratings, not sustained guarantees.
Endurance / warranty1,200 TBW (reported for the 2 TB configuration; confirm in OEM documentation); OEM warranty/support terms vary by system and sales channel
Controller / flashSilicon Motion SM2508 (reported for the 4600 platform); Micron 3D TLC NAND. Component details can vary by production revision; use the exact drive label and current manufacturer documentation.
Cooling / package noteClient/OEM-oriented component; thermal hardware, firmware and support obligations may be defined by the system vendor rather than a consumer retail package.

Compatibility, installation & service

  • This exact MPN is an M.2 2280 PCIe Gen5 x4 client SSD. Verify that the target system supports an interchangeable NVMe drive, the necessary keying/length, and the desired lane generation.
  • Because the 4600 is commonly deployed through OEM channels, check the computer maker’s whitelist, firmware package, encryption policy and warranty channel. Firmware for an unrelated retail SSD is not interchangeable.
  • Use the platform manual for thermal-pad and heatsink instructions, UEFI boot support and shared lanes. Back up before changing drives, especially when OEM recovery or device encryption is enabled.
  • Before replacing a boot drive, create a recoverable backup and confirm OS recovery media, encryption keys and firmware settings. Follow clean shutdown and electrostatic-discharge precautions; do not hot-plug M.2 unless the platform manual explicitly supports it.
