Know before you buy
The SX6000 Lite uses the standard M.2 2280 form factor, which is compatible with most modern notebooks, Ultrabooks, and desktop motherboards. At only 2.15mm thick, it is designed to fit easily into slim devices.
With sequential read speeds up to 1800 MBps and write speeds up to 1200 MBps, this drive is significantly faster than traditional SATA SSDs. It uses SLC Caching and HMB technology to ensure snappy system boot times and quick file transfers.
The drive is built with 3D NAND Flash and features LDPC ECC technology to correct data errors, which helps extend the lifespan of the drive. It is rated for 480TBW (Terabytes Written) and has an MTBF of 1.8 million hours, making it a reliable choice for daily consumer workloads.
The SX6000 Lite is designed to operate efficiently within standard temperature ranges without an external heatsink. However, if you are installing it in a cramped, high-performance gaming desktop, ensuring proper case airflow is always recommended.
This is a PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe drive. While it is backward compatible with some systems, you should check your motherboard manual to ensure it has an M.2 slot that supports the NVMe protocol to achieve the advertised speeds.
