- Key Specs
- Storage Capacity: 2000 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: 3500 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can read information; for example, opening files.)
- Maximum Write Speed: 3300 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.)

- Maximum Write Speed: 3300 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can write information; for example, saving files.)
- SSD Endurance: 1200 terabytes (The total amount of data that the solid-state drive (SSD) is able to write before it wears out, as specified by the manufacturer. Endurance is limited because the flash on a SSD has a finite number of cycles that it can complete.)
- Heatsink: false (Dissipates heat during intense operation for sustained peak performance.)
- Compatibility
- Internal Or External: Internal
- Product Compatibility: Laptop computers, Desktop computers
- 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.)
- Features
- Security Features: None
- Data Encryption: true
- Encryption Algorithm: 256-bit AES (The algorithm standard used to encrypt data on a device.)
- Usage: Everyday computing
- Memory
- Cache Buffer Size: 2 megabytes (The data capacity of the cache buffer (or disk buffer) that acts as temporary memory for the drive. The cache holds the most recently and frequently used data to save the drive the extra step of pulling it from permanent storage every time it's needed, which helps increase the drive's overall speed.)
- NAND Flash Memory Type: TLC (Single Level Cell (SLC) stores 1 bit of data per memory cell; Multi Level Cell (MLC) stores 2 bits per cell, Triple Level Cell (TLC) 3 bits, and Quad Level Cell (QLC) 4 bits. Vertical NAND (V-NAND) or 3D NAND stores more data by layering cells vertically. Similarly, there are 3D MLC, 3D TLC and 3D QLC stacked cells.)

Q: Have these drives actually been used or only purchased and returned open box?
A: See my post and watch out. Geek squad does not check these for function nor even that the item is the correct drive (I received a 256gb western digital ssd with the Samsung sticker label transplanted onto it). In communications on forums it seems this is not an isolated incident. But, if you do get the correct drive, it likely has few writes/reads.
