EVM 1TB M.2 NVME 2242 SSD

The EVM 1TB M.2 NVMe 2242 Solid State Drive is a compact, high-capacity storage solution designed for laptops, mini-PCs, and embedded systems that use the shorter 2242 M.2 form factor. Unlike the more common 2280 drives, the 2242 length (42 mm) allows it to fit into space-constrained builds where a standard-length M.2 drive would not, making it a practical choice for BRIX-style systems, select ultrabooks, and industrial platforms. Powered by 3D NAND flash technology, the drive stacks memory cells vertically to achieve higher storage density and improved endurance compared to planar NAND. Sequential read speeds reach up to 2100 MB/s and sequential write speeds reach up to 1900 MB/s, enabling faster application launches, shorter boot times, and smoother multitasking versus a traditional hard drive or SATA-based SSD. The drive is built to handle real-world physical stress, rated at 1500G shock resistance over a 0.5 ms pulse — a specification that reflects durability during transport and everyday handling. With 1TB of usable capacity, it provides ample room for an operating system, productivity applications, media libraries, and project files on a single compact module. This drive connects via the M.2 connector and uses the NVMe protocol for low-latency, high-throughput communication with the host system. Prospective buyers should confirm that their motherboard or device supports the 2242 M.2 slot length and NVMe protocol before purchase, as 2242 slots are less common than 2280. Verified Specifications: - Form Factor: M.2 2242 (NVMe) - Interface: SATA III 6 Gb/s (per source listing) - Flash Type: 3D NAND - Capacity: 1 TB - Sequential Read Speed: up to 2100 MB/s - Sequential Write Speed: up to 1900 MB/s - Shock Resistance: 1500G / 0.5 ms - Brand: EVM Note: The source listing states both an NVMe form factor label and a SATA III 6 Gb/s interface. These are contradictory — NVMe and SATA III are distinct protocols. This discrepancy has been flagged for manual review. Buyers should verify the actual interface with EVM or the retailer before purchase
