SSD Disk GOODRAM PX500 1TB G2 PCIe M.2 2280

About the GOODRAM PX500 1TB G2 PCIe M.2 2280 SSD

High performance

By creating a disk with efficient memory in 3D TLC technology and the SMI 2263XT controller, we managed to achieve sequential transfer parameters of up to 2050 MB/s for reading and 1650 MB/s for writing, as well as 173,000 read operations and 143,000 write operations per second (IOPS).

New possibilities with NVMe

The NVM Express communication protocol was designed from the ground up to achieve the potential of fast flash-based storage. By using it in the PX500 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 provide a much better response compared to AHCI-based SSDs.

Heat under control

One of the concerns with the M.2 SSD format is thermal throttling - efficiency limitation due to very high ambient temperature. To control this, the PX500 has a special coating composed of copper and graphite. Thanks to this, we achieved very good heat dissipation without increasing the size of the disk.

Multiple possibilities

The GOODRAM PX500 is available in capacities of 256, 512 GB, and 1 TB. All sizes are available in the M.2 2280 format, with elements placed on one side, just like other Goodram SSDs.
