The Kingston NV2 is a solid-state drive in the M.2 2280 form factor. It is available in capacities ranging from 1 TB to 4 TB. This page reports specifications for the 4 TB variant. With the rest of the system, the Kingston NV2 interfaces using a PCI-Express 4.0 x4 connection. The SSD controller is the SM2269XT from Silicon Motion, a DRAM cache is not available. Kingston has installed 112-layer TLC NAND flash on the NV2, the flash chips are made by Kioxia. Please note that this SSD is sold in multiple variants with different NAND flash or controller, which could affect performance, the "Notes" section at the end of this page has more info. To improve write speeds, a pseudo-SLC cache is used, so bursts of incoming writes are soaked up more quickly. Thanks to support for the fast PCI-Express 4.0 interface, performance is excellent. The NV2 is rated for sequential read speeds of up to 3,500 MB/s and 2,800 MB/s write.
At its launch, the SSD was priced at 287 USD. The warranty length is set to three years, which is above average, but shorter than the five years offered by many other vendors. Kingston guarantees an endurance rating of 1280 TBW, a relatively low value compared to other SSDs.
