Manufacturer-identified specifications

Product / exact MPNSabrent Rocket 4 Plus 1 TB — SB-RKT4P-1TB
Capacity / form factor1 TB; M.2 2280.
Interface / host lanesPCIe 4.0 x4; NVMe. Full link speed requires a compatible PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe host; an older supported host may negotiate a lower link.
ControllerNot identified in the cited Sabrent product page/manual.
NANDTLC NAND; NAND supplier/generation is not specified in the cited Sabrent product page/manual.
Sequential performanceUp to 7,000 MB/s read and 5,300 MB/s write. Vendor-rated maximums, not guaranteed sustained host results.
Endurance700 TBW. The manufacturer TBW rating and warranty limit are not a substitute for backups.
Thermal packageBare module; Sabrent recommends a heatsink for sustained high-performance use. Confirm host heatsink contact and clearance, and distinguish this SKU from heatsink bundles.

Host compatibility, installation & thermal cautions

  • Read the motherboard, laptop or console service manual to verify an M.2 M-key socket supports PCIe/NVMe, the 2280 module length, lane allocation, shared ports, BIOS/UEFI boot support, and the required NVMe driver. M.2 shape alone does not establish protocol or boot compatibility.
  • Use a PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe host to approach the listed maxima. PCIe generation and lane width are negotiated; a slower host, chipset sharing, firmware, workload, or thermal throttling reduces throughput.
  • Bare module; Sabrent recommends a heatsink for sustained high-performance use. Confirm host heatsink contact and clearance, and distinguish this SKU from heatsink bundles. Keep airflow around the controller and follow the host manual's heatsink/thermal-pad instructions; do not stack thermal materials, remove factory cooling, or block ventilation without explicit manufacturer guidance.
  • Install only after a full shutdown and removal of standby power as the host manual directs; use ESD precautions. Back up data and retain recovery media and encryption keys before replacement or firmware updates.
  • Use firmware and management utilities for this exact capacity and SKU. Monitor SMART health and temperature during sustained writes; performance bursts do not predict long-duration speed or service life.
