Kingston Announces NV1 NVMe PCIe SSD | TechPowerUp Kingston today announces 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 2 TB. It features read/write speeds up to 2,100/1,700 MB/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 500 GB, 1 TB, and 2 TB capacities and is backed by a limited three-year warranty, free tech support and legendary Kingston reliability.
