Verbatim Vi5000 31826 1 TB

One of the most high-performance SSD drives with a PCI-E 3.0 interface, designed for systems without Gen4 support but with high demands for speed and stability. The model is positioned as a rational choice for upgrading platforms on PCI-E 3.0, where maximum output from the current architecture is required without moving to more expensive solutions. The device combines high speed, compact cooling, and wide compatibility, remaining one of the best in its class.

The M.2-2280 form factor ensures easy installation in any modern device. The model weighs about 10 grams, consuming less than 3 watts of power, making the drive an excellent fit for laptops and ultrabooks where space saving and energy efficiency are important. The 3D NAND memory used provides reliability and stable performance, with impressive specifications: read speeds reaching 5000 MB/s and write speeds up to 4500 MB/s.

These figures exceed the formal PCI-E 3.0 limitations thanks to dynamic SLC caching and efficient controller operation. Random access performance is also on par with top solutions: up to 725,000 IOPS for write and up to 645,000 for read. This power reserve allows the Verbatim Vi5000 to confidently handle multitasking loads, processing small file arrays, virtual machines, and professional video editing. Cooling is managed by a thin graphene heatsink, particularly useful in laptops and compact cases where there is no separate cooling for M.2 drives.
