Full description and specifications

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.

What's in the Box

  • Hiksemi Future Core 4TB Gen5 M.2 NVMe 3D NAND SSD x1

4TB formats to roughly 3.63TB usable, and like any consumer drive it writes fastest into cache before settling on very long sustained transfers. Covered by a 5 year warranty. Buy this if you have a Gen5 slot and a workload that can actually use it; a Gen4 drive is the better value otherwise.

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 4000GB 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.
