ABOUT THE PRODUCT
The SanDisk Optimus GX PRO 8100 is an internal M.2 2280 NVMe solid state drive built on the PCIe 5.0 x4 interface, designed to give compatible workstations, AI PCs, gamer PCs and creator PCs a major storage performance upgrade. This 2TB model reaches sequential read speeds of up to 14,900MB/s and write speeds of up to 14,000MB/s, so large projects, game libraries and digital assets load and save quickly. It is built with 8th generation SanDisk BiCS TLC 3D CBA NAND and uses integrated SanDisk nCache 4.0 technology to speed up large file transfers. The manufacturer positions it for demanding AI workflows, intense gaming sessions and write-intensive creative work, suiting users whose current storage cannot keep pace with their workloads.
KEY FEATURES
- PCIe 5.0 Speed: Delivers sequential read speeds of up to 14,900MB/s and write speeds of up to 14,000MB/s over a PCIe 5.0 x4 interface.
- Random Performance: The 2TB model reaches up to 2.3M random read IOPS and 2.4M random write IOPS for handling demanding multitasking workloads.
- SLC Caching: Integrated SanDisk nCache 4.0 technology provides SLC caching to transfer large files faster.
- Data Encryption: Supports TCG Opal 2.02 for data-at-rest encryption, which requires motherboard BIOS or third-party software to enable.
- Backwards Compatible: Works in PCIe 4.0, 3.0 and 2.0 slots, though it reaches its rated speed only in a PCIe 5.0 x4 slot.
