GIGABYTE Gen4 4000E 500GB M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD

The GIGABYTE Gen4 4000E solid state drive provides 500 GB of storage utilizing the PCIe 4.0 x4 interface in a compact M.2 2280 format. This model operates under the NVMe 1.4 specification, optimizing data handling for systems requiring rapid file access and reduced loading times. It delivers sequential data throughput with read speeds reaching 3,600 MB/s and sequential write speeds peaking at 3,000 MB/s, offering a noticeable performance upgrade over SATA-based storage solutions.

Integrated reliability features include Error Correction Code (ECC) and S.M.A.R.T. monitoring support to preserve data integrity over the drive's operational lifetime. The unit is engineered with an endurance rating of 300 Terabytes Written (TBW) and a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) specified at 1.5 million hours. Its physical dimensions and low-profile design allow for installation in compatible desktop motherboards and various performance-oriented laptop chassis.

Power consumption is managed efficiently, with the drive averaging 4.3W during typical operation and dropping to 0.04W during idle periods. The drive supports Host Memory Buffer (HMB) functionality, leveraging the host system's DRAM to manage mapping tables, thereby maintaining high performance without requiring dedicated DRAM on the drive itself.
