The Lexar NM520 M.2 2242 NVMe solid-state drive (SSD) lets you wake up your PC with a performance upgrade from SATA to an entry-level PCIe NVMe for faster startups, data transfers and application loads. With speeds 2.5x faster than a SATA SSD2, your PC will be ready to take on more and finish faster than ever with speeds up to 1650MB/s1.
More powerful than SATA SSDs With the PCIe Gen3x2 NVMe 1.2 standard you get sequential read speed up to 1650MB/s1, giving you 2.5x the performance of SATA SSDs2. The NM520 is also built with 3D NAND flash.
Outstanding endurance With outstanding endurance thanks to no moving parts it’s cooler, quieter, and more reliable than a traditional hard disk drive, plus it’s also shock and vibration resistant3.
Efficient Reduced power consumption and cooler operation makes the battery life last longer than an HDD.
Rigorously tested All Lexar product designs undergo extensive testing in the Lexar Quality Labs, facilities with more than 1,100 digital devices, to ensure performance, quality, compatibility, and reliability.
