Gen4 speed in an M.2 2280 stick, with the endurance rating to match.
The Hiksemi Future 512GB is a PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe drive in the M.2 2280 form factor, the 80mm stick most desktop motherboards and full-size laptops take. At 7050MB/s sequential read it is a genuine high-end drive rather than an entry NVMe, and the 900TB endurance rating puts it well above the usual mid-range figures. 512GB suits an entry build, ideally with a second drive for a larger games library.
Key Features
- Up to 7050MB/s read and 4200MB/s write: Gen4 x4 throughput for operating system loads, project files and large transfers.
- 710K read / 640K write random 4K IOPS: the numbers that matter for multitasking and application launches, not just benchmark headlines.
- 900TB written endurance: an unusually high TBW rating for this capacity class, backed by a 2,000,000 hour MTBF figure.
- 3D TLC storage medium: stated by the manufacturer, alongside Hiksemi's own NAND flash management software.
- Hardware security and data protection: AES-256, SM4, TCG Opal 2.0 and IEEE1667 support, with third-generation agile ECC (4K LDPC) and end-to-end data protection.
- 3.66W maximum draw: modest for a Gen4 drive, and paired with thermal management to hold speed under load.
- Runs in a Gen3 slot: it will work in an older PCIe Gen3 M.2 slot, simply at Gen3 speed. Check your board's M.2 slot length, keying and PCIe generation before ordering.

Questions
Before you buy
Will this drive fit my motherboard?
It connects over NVMe PCIe 4.0 x4 in the M.2 2280 form factor. Check that your board has a free slot of that type - an M.2 drive needs an M.2 socket of the right length, a SATA drive needs a SATA port and a power lead from the supply. A drive will still work in a slower slot than it is rated for, it just will not reach its full speed.
How much will actually fit on it?
It is a 512GB drive. Formatted capacity always reads a little lower than the number on the box because drive makers count in decimal gigabytes and Windows reports binary ones - that is normal and not a fault. Leaving roughly ten percent free also helps an SSD hold its write speed over time.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
