Gen5 flagship speed for workstations and high-end builds
The Hiksemi Future Core is a PCIe Gen5 x4 NVMe 2.0d drive in the standard M.2 2280 size, built on 3D TLC NAND with fourth-generation 4K LDPC error correction. It is aimed at people moving very large files regularly: high-resolution video editing, large project libraries and demanding multitasking on a current-generation platform.
Key Features
- PCIe Gen5 x4, NVMe 2.0d: sequential reads up to 14,300MB/s and writes up to 8,800MB/s.
- Very high random throughput: up to 1700K IOPS random 4K read and 1500K IOPS random 4K write.
- 3D TLC NAND: with end-to-end data protection and fourth-generation agile ECC (4K LDPC) error correction.
- 980TB endurance: rated for 980 terabytes written, with an MTBF of 2 million hours.
- Controlled power draw: a maximum of 7.5W during peak read operations.
- M.2 2280: the standard 80mm stick that most desktop boards and many laptops accept.

What's in the Box
- 1 x Hiksemi Future Core 1TB Gen5 M.2 NVMe 3D NAND SSD
Gen5 drives run hot: give this one your motherboard's M.2 heatspreader or a dedicated heatsink, and confirm the slot's length, keying and PCIe generation before you buy. In a Gen4 or Gen3 slot it will work but run at that slot's speed. 1TB formats to roughly 931GB usable. Backed by a 5 year warranty and suited to creators, workstation users and high-end gaming builds.

Questions
Before you buy
Will this drive fit my motherboard?
It connects over NVMe PCIe 5.0 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 1000GB 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?
This one is out of stock at the moment. Stock does come back in - WhatsApp us on 079 491 0181 with the model and we will tell you what the supplier is showing and let you know when it lands, rather than leaving you to keep checking the page.
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.
