Manufacturer-identified specifications

Product / exact MPNSK hynix Platinum P41 1 TB — SHPP41-1000GM-2
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.
ControllerSK hynix Aries controller.
NANDSK hynix 176-layer 4D TLC NAND.
Sequential performanceUp to 7,000 MB/s read and 6,500 MB/s write. Vendor-rated maximums, not guaranteed sustained host results.
Endurance750 TBW. The manufacturer TBW rating and warranty limit are not a substitute for backups.
Thermal packageBare module. Provide airflow or a correctly fitted host M.2 heatsink for sustained workloads; check pad and cover clearance and monitor controller temperature.

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. Provide airflow or a correctly fitted host M.2 heatsink for sustained workloads; check pad and cover clearance and monitor controller temperature. 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.
