Make room with the Kingston NV3 4TB

A larger SSD can keep your operating system, applications and working files together while leaving space for games or a media library. The NV3 4TB occupies one M.2 2280 slot and measures 80 x 22 x 2.3 mm. Its single-sided layout is useful when space around the slot is limited, but you should still check the computer's supported drive length, interface and capacity before ordering.

PCIe 4.0 NVMe connection

The NV3 connects directly to a compatible PCIe NVMe M.2 slot. Its maximum transfer figures apply to the 4TB model and vary with host hardware, software and usage. Check the motherboard's storage specifications, because the M.2 shape alone does not confirm NVMe support.

A compact storage upgrade

This version uses a blue PCB with a white product label and has no separate heatsink. The module weighs 7 g. Follow the system manufacturer's instructions for the M.2 screw or latch and any existing heatsink or thermal pad.

Cloning and drive monitoring

Kingston includes Acronis cloning software to help move an existing installation. Kingston SSD Manager provides drive information and wear monitoring. Back up important files before migration and verify that the copied system boots correctly before repurposing the old drive.

Which Kingston NV3 4TB model is this?

This is SNV3S/4000G, the 80 mm M.2 2280 version with 4 TB advertised capacity. Formatting and system functions reduce the capacity available to store files.

Is this the shorter M.2 2230 version?

No. This drive measures 80 x 22 x 2.3 mm and requires M.2 2280 support. It does not fit a device that only has a 30 mm M.2 2230 mounting position.

What speeds does the 4TB version support?

Kingston rates it for sequential reads up to 6000 MB/s and writes up to 5000 MB/s. The host connection and workload affect the actual speeds.

What is the endurance and manufacturer warranty?

The Kingston NV3 4TB is rated for 1280 TBW. Kingston's current specifications list a limited five-year warranty subject to its drive-wear terms, with free technical support. It is intended for desktop and notebook workloads.
