Description

HP Z Turbo 1 TB NVMe PCIe Gen4 M.2 2280 SSD for Workstations and Desktops

The HP Z Turbo 1 TB Solid State Drive is engineered to elevate performance in high-demand environments. This internal M.2 2280 NVMe drive leverages the latest PCIe Gen4 x4 interface to deliver rapid data access, faster boot times, and smooth multitasking for professional workloads. Built for reliability and energy efficiency, the HP Z Turbo is an upgrade designed to keep up with demanding creative, engineering, and data-processing tasks while minimizing power consumption. Whether you’re refreshing an aging workstation, outfitting a powerful desktop PC, or expanding storage on a workstation-class machine, this drive provides a compelling combination of speed, capacity, and dependable operation that professionals can rely on day after day.

  • Blazing NVMe performance for snappy workflows: By utilizing PCIe Gen4 NVMe 4.0 x4 technology, this SSD lowers latency and accelerates data transfer between the drive, CPU, and memory. You’ll notice noticeably quicker application launches, faster file transfers, and a more responsive system overall. From opening large design files to loading complex software toolchains, the Z Turbo helps you stay in the flow with less waiting and more doing.
  • Generous 1 TB capacity for large projects and libraries: With a spacious 1 terabyte of fast flash storage, you can host expansive media libraries, project assets, source files, and operating system data in a single, high-performance location. The ample capacity reduces the need for frequent offloading to external drives or external storage, enabling streamlined workflows, improved organization, and greater confidence in keeping active work accessible at all times.
  • Energy-efficient design for reliability and cooling: The HP Z Turbo is built to deliver consistent performance while maintaining a mindful power profile. Low idle and active power consumption helps reduce overall system heat generation, which is especially valuable in dense workstations and longer rendering sessions. This efficiency can contribute to quieter operation, longer component life, and steadier performance under sustained workloads.
  • Compact M.2 2280 form factor for broad compatibility: The slim M.2 2280 footprint fits into the vast majority of modern workstations and desktop motherboards that include an NVMe-enabled M.2 slot. Its compact size helps minimize cabling and space requirements while still providing enterprise-grade reliability for professional use. This makes upgrading a workstation simpler and cleaner, whether you’re building a turnkey system or refreshing an existing setup.
  • Ideal for demanding workloads and rapid data access: The Z Turbo is designed to accelerate a wide range of professional tasks, including design, simulation, data analytics, virtualization, and multimedia production. When big data, complex models, or large assets are central to your work, this drive helps reduce bottlenecks and keeps data flowing where you need it most, so you can focus on results rather than wait times.

How to install HP Z Turbo 1 TB Solid State Drive

  • Power down your computer and unplug the power cord. Ground yourself to prevent static discharge before handling internal components.
  • Open the computer case and locate an available M.2 slot on the motherboard. Confirm that the slot supports NVMe PCIe drives and check any motherboard-specific installation notes in the manual.
  • Insert the HP Z Turbo drive into the M.2 slot at a slight angle (approximately 30 degrees). Gently press the drive down toward the motherboard and align the mounting screw hole.
  • Secure the drive with the proper mounting screw, usually provided with the motherboard or the drive kit. Ensure the drive lies flat and is firmly seated with no gaps.
  • Replace the case cover, reconnect power, and boot up. Enter BIOS/UEFI to verify that the drive is detected. If you plan to boot the OS from this drive, set it as a primary boot device as needed.
  • In your operating system, use the disk management utility to initialize, partition, and format the new SSD. Choose an appropriate file system (for Windows, NTFS; for macOS/Linux compatibility, consider APFS or exFAT if cross-platform use is required). After formatting, you can start moving applications and data to the new drive for optimal performance.
