PCIe Gen5, four terabytes, no compromises asked for.
The Hiksemi Future Core 4TB is an M.2 2280 drive on a PCIe Gen5 x4 NVMe 2.0 interface, rated at 14,800MB/s read and 13,200MB/s write. It is built for people whose storage is genuinely the bottleneck: 8K and high-bitrate video editing, large game libraries, dataset work and heavy workstation use. This is the top of the current consumer stack, and it is priced and specified accordingly.
Key Features
- PCIe Gen5 x4, NVMe 2.0d: sequential reads to 14,800MB/s and writes to 13,200MB/s. You need a Gen5 M.2 slot to see those numbers; in a Gen4 or Gen3 slot the drive works fine, just at that slot's speed.
- Plan for heat: Gen5 drives run hot. Use a motherboard M.2 heatspreader or an aftermarket M.2 heatsink, and give the slot some airflow.
- M.2 2280 form factor: the 80mm stick. Check your system's M.2 slot length, keying and PCIe generation before ordering.
- Very high random throughput: up to 2000K IOPS 4K random read and 1500K IOPS 4K random write.
- 3D TLC NAND, 3900 TBW: a serious endurance rating alongside a 2 million hour MTBF.
- Error correction: fourth-generation agile ECC (4K LDPC) with end-to-end data protection.
- 4TB in one slot: enough for a large game library and an active video project at the same time, without juggling drives.
