Description

GOODRAM PX500 M.2 SSD
By providing up to 4x better sequential and random transfer performance compared to SATA III Solid State Drives and lower latency than AHCI drives, GOODRAM PX500 pumps-up your PC. The performance will improve the work of more demanding customers, offering a reading of up to 2050 MB/s. It is also perfect as a stand-alone drive, as well as an add-on to a hard disk in desktops and laptops. Available capacities for the PX500 make the drive work in both roles.

Key Features
Available capacities:
256 GB 512 GB 1024 GB
high-speed PCIe gen. 3 x4 interface
wsparcie NVMe 1.3
3D NAND Flash technology
heat-dissipating thermal pad
3-year warranty limited by the TBW paremeter and free technical support

High performance
By creating a disk based on efficient memory in 3D NAND technology, we managed to achieve sequential transfer parameters of up to 2050 MB/s for reading and 1650 MB/s for write.

New possibilities with NVMe
NVM Express communication protocol was designed from the ground up to achieve the potential of fast flash based storage media. By utilizing it in PX500 gen.2 SSD, we were able to extract the maximum performance from its memory, controller and PCIe gen. 3 x4 interface. NVMe drastically reduces latency and queuing to bring much better responsiveness vs. AHCI-based SSD.

Heat under control
One of the problems that concerns M.2 SSD format is the thermal throttling – limitation of efficiency due to too high ambient temperature. To get it under control, PX500 gen.2 have special coating consisting of copper and graphite. Thanks to this, we have obtained very good heat dissipation, without increasing the size of the disk.

3-year warranty & endurance
GOODRAM PX500 is available in 256 GB, 512 GB and 1 TB capacities. All sizes are available in M.2 2280 format, with one-sided placement of elements. As the rest of Goodram SSD’s, PX500 comes up with a 3-year warranty.
