A Closer Look
The drive is a pretty typical-looking M.2, with the very common M.2 2280 form factor, so it’s widely compatible with most laptops and desktop systems. All capacities, the 500GB, 1TB, 2TB and 4TB are all the same form factor and come with a single-sided design.
As such, the back of the PCB is just plain old PCB, nothing to see here really. However, this keeps the device slim and will improve compatibility with more compact notebooks.
The drive user TLC 3D NAND Flash, albeit that’s pretty much in line with what all drives use now, so no big surprises there. It also uses a modified Phison PS5021-E21T controller, it’s a more affordable controller compared to the popular E18, but given the PCIe 4×4 and write speeds, and that it features a DRAM-less design, it’s well suited for this drive and keeps the cost down too. And that’s about it, it’s pretty simple really, so let’s get to testing!
