Kingston NV3 500GB NVMe Gen4 SSD

The Kingston NV3 500GB NVMe SSD brings PCIe Gen4 performance to the M.2 2280 form factor, making it a practical choice for users upgrading desktops, laptops, or building a new system from scratch. Designed for everyday computing tasks such as operating system boot, application loading, and file transfers, the NV3 slots into the widely supported M.2 2280 slot found on most modern motherboards and laptops. The NVMe interface ensures a direct CPU connection with lower latency than older SATA-based drives, while the PCIe Gen4 lane allocation allows for meaningfully higher bandwidth compared to Gen3 solutions. With 500GB of usable capacity, there is room for a primary OS installation alongside a healthy library of applications and frequently used media files. The drive ships under Kingston's well-known NV3 value-tier lineup, balancing acquisition cost against solid sequential throughput for mainstream workloads. It carries GTIN 740617344806, allowing straightforward product verification at point of purchase. The M.2 2280 physical footprint (22 mm wide, 80 mm long) is the most common M.2 size, so fitment into standard slots is broadly compatible.
