SanDisk Optimus GX 7100M 2TB M.2 2230 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD

The SanDisk Optimus GX 7100M 2TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 2230 SSD provides high-capacity storage for compact devices. The drive uses a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface to connect directly to compatible motherboards. Its compact 2230 form factor is designed for hardware with limited space, making it a common choice for modern laptops and handheld gaming consoles. Using the NVMe protocol eliminates the latency bottlenecks associated with older SATA connections. The drive is primarily aimed at the gaming market, focusing on high data throughput.

The unit uses TLC 3D NAND flash memory. It has an endurance rating of 1,200 Terabytes Written (TBW), representing the total volume of data that can be safely written to the drive. Reliability testing indicates a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 1.75 million hours. Hardware-level encryption is integrated into the storage controller to protect data without taxing the host processor. The firmware supports the TCG Pyrite 2.01 security standard to restrict unauthorised physical access. The drive complies with various regulatory standards, including FCC and CE.

• 7,250 MB/s maximum sequential read speed: speeds up loading times and system boot sequences.
• 6,900 MB/s maximum sequential write speed: handles large file transfers and installations quickly.
• 1,000,000 IOPS random 4KB read performance: maintains performance during simultaneous background operations.
• 1,300,000 IOPS random 4KB write performance: ensures system responsiveness during heavy multitasking.
• NVMe 2.0 protocol: optimises data exchange with the host system.
• 2.8 g weight: minimises additional mass in portable devices.
