Verbatim Vi3000 NVMe 1TB Gen3 SSD

The Verbatim Vi3000 is a PCIe Gen3 NVMe internal solid-state drive designed for users who want a meaningful performance step up from traditional SATA storage. Built in the compact M.2 2280 form factor, it fits comfortably into most modern laptops, desktop motherboards, and small-form-factor PCs that support an M.2 NVMe slot. The drive delivers sequential read speeds of up to 3,100 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 2,200 MB/s, according to Verbatim's published specifications. Random read IOPS reach up to 150,000 and random write IOPS up to 10,000, enabling snappier application launches, quicker file transfers, and reduced load times in demanding workflows such as video editing, large-file content creation, and gaming. Using the NVMe protocol over a PCIe Gen3 x4 interface, the Vi3000 benefits from a more direct communication path between the drive and the CPU compared with legacy AHCI SATA designs. The result is lower latency and higher sustained throughput, which is particularly noticeable when moving large batches of files or running multiple storage-intensive tasks simultaneously. Because the drive contains no spinning platters or moving mechanical parts, it is inherently more resilient to physical shock than a conventional hard disk drive. This also contributes to quiet, heat-efficient operation during everyday use. Verbatim backs the Vi3000 with a 5-year limited warranty, which reflects confidence in the drive's long-term reliability.
