  • Key Specs
    • Storage Capacity: 1000 gigabytes (Measured in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and terabytes (TB), this is the amount available for storing files, music, movies, photos and more. The total includes the capacity of the hard disk drive and solid state drive if both are included on the computer.)
    • Storage Drive Type: SSD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
    • Maximum Read Speed: 2100 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can read information; for example, opening files.)
    • Maximum Write Speed: 1700 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can write information; for example, saving files.)
    • Form Factor: M.2 2280
    • Interface(s): PCIe Gen 3 x4 (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

The PNY CS1030 M.2 NVMe SSD is an excellent choice for an NVMe upgrade from a SATA based solid state drive (SSD) or hard traditional hard drive in an NVMe enabled desktop or laptop computer. The CS1030 drive is designed to be an upgrade from conventional SATA based storage to take advantage of the high bandwidth of the NVMe interface to help realize faster boot times, quicker application launches, and better overall system performance. Do more in less time with NVMe; boot up, power down, and load applications up to 4 times faster than with SATA based storage. With no moving parts, the PNY CS1030 M.2 NVMe SSD is highly durable, less likely to fail, and supports a 5 year warranty.

Q: Can I use this gen 3 pcle in a m.2 slot. Can I also replace a gen 4 pcle for a gen 3 pcle (this one)?

A: It depends on the type of M.2 Slot. But if it is a normal NVMe slot, it should be fine. And yes you can use this Gen 3 drive instead of your Gen 4.

Q: Will this work for ps5

A: Al through it would fit into the PS5's slot, the PS5 will not accept a Gen 3 NVMe drive.

Q: Does is have a dram cache

A: It lacks a DRAM Cache.

Q: If I get this at Best BUy, will you install it?

A: Geek Squad might for a cost.

Q: Will this fit MacBook Pro 2012 retina?

A: 2012 MacBook Pro only has a slot M.2 SATA 2280, Not M.2 NVMe SSDs.
