Kingston Digital Ships NV1 NVMe PCIe SSD

Kingston today announced the launch of the NV1 NVMe PCIe SSD. With efficient performance in a single-sided M.2 design, NV1 is the ideal entry-level drive for first-time NVMe users with laptops and small form factor PCs.

NV1 is a substantial storage solution with capacities up to 2TB. It features read/write speeds up to 2,100/1,700MB/s, respectively, thus delivering 3x the performance of a SATA-based SSD. NV1 uses less power, emits less heat and has quicker load times making it ideal for users who appreciate responsiveness and ultra-fast data access but have systems with limited space.

NV1 is available in 500GB, 1TB, and 2TB capacities and is backed by a limited three-year warranty, free tech support and legendary Kingston reliability.
