SSD Drive Kioxia EXCERIA PLUS G3 2TB LSD10Z002TG8 M.2 2280

SSD Drive Kioxia EXCERIA PLUS G3 2TB

The KIOXIA EXCERIA PLUS G3 2TB is an M.2 2280 SSD with a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface and the NVMe 1.4 protocol. It reaches sequential reads of up to 5,000 MB/s and sequential writes of up to 3,900 MB/s, with random performance of up to 680,000 IOPS read and 950,000 IOPS write.

KIOXIA aims the series at gamers and video editors upgrading a desktop or laptop with a PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot: the operating system, games and projects load quickly, and 2TB leaves room for a large library without a second drive.

The drive is single-sided and thin (2.63 mm), so it also fits compact notebooks. It is built on KIOXIA's own BiCS FLASH TLC 3D memory, rated for 1,200 TBW and 1.5 million hours MTTF, and supported by the SSD Utility software for health monitoring and firmware updates.

Key features

• PCIe 4.0 performance - A PCIe Gen4 x4 interface (up to 64 GT/s) and NVMe 1.4 deliver sequential reads of up to 5,000 MB/s and writes of up to 3,900 MB/s, so games, the operating system and heavy video files load fast.
• Single-sided M.2 2280 - All components sit on one side of the 2.63 mm thin board, making the drive compatible with a wider range of laptops and desktops. It plugs straight into the motherboard with no cables.
• BiCS FLASH TLC memory - KIOXIA's own BiCS FLASH 3D flash memory with a vertically stacked cell structure combines performance, capacity and reliability.

• High endurance - Rated for 1,200 TB written (TBW) on the 2TB model and 1.5 million hours MTTF, with 1,000G shock and 20G vibration resistance.
• Built-in optimization - TRIM, Idle Time Garbage Collection and Host Memory Buffer support keep performance consistent over time.
• SSD Utility software - KIOXIA's management software shows drive health and the percentage of life left, and handles maintenance and firmware updates.

• Low power draw - 5.3W active (typical) and only 5 mW in PS4 state, a clear benefit for laptop battery life.
