VisionTek DLX4 1 TB NVMe SSD — M.2 2280, PCIe Gen4 x4

Experience blazing-fast storage with the VisionTek DLX4 1 TB NVMe SSD. Crafted for modern desktops and laptops that support an M.2 2280 form factor, this compact powerhouse leverages a PCIe Gen4 x4 interface to deliver ultra-responsive performance for boot times, application launches, and large-file workflows. The DLX4 combines robust endurance with efficient power management, helping you accelerate everything from everyday multitasking to demanding creative tasks. If you’re upgrading an aging system or building a new high-performance rig, the VisionTek DLX4 is a reliable, scalable storage solution designed to keep pace with today’s software and data loads.

• Blazing PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe performance: The DLX4 taps into the high bandwidth of PCIe Gen4 x4 with NVMe optimization to deliver dramatically faster data paths. You’ll notice snappier boot sequences, near-instant game and app launches, and expedited large-file transfers—benefits that translate into smoother multitasking and more productive workflows. Whether you’re editing 4K video, rendering complex projects, compiling large codebases, or loading expansive game libraries, the VisionTek DLX4 keeps the pace with your workload.
• Compact, reliable M.2 2280 form factor: The DLX4 is designed in the popular M.2 2280 size, delivering top-tier performance in a slim, easy-to-install package. Its streamlined footprint fits neatly into most desktops and laptops with an M.2 slot, reducing cable clutter and heat build-up while preserving internal space for other components. This makes upgrading straightforward for gamers, creators, and professionals who want a high-performance SSD without sacrificing form factor compatibility.
• 1 TB of high-speed storage for OS, apps, and media: A full terabyte of NVMe storage gives you ample room for your operating system, essential software, and a growing collection of games, photos, videos, and work files. By placing the OS and frequently used applications on the DLX4, you can accelerate boot times and application responses, leaving more room for data caching, scratch files, and large data sets. The generous capacity helps you keep your library organized and accessible, reducing the need to constantly juggle disks and partitions.
• Seamless compatibility and easy upgrade: The VisionTek DLX4 is built for PCIe Gen4-capable systems but remains backward compatible with PCIe Gen3 slots, enabling flexible upgrade paths for older machines as well as new builds. It supports standard NVMe drivers and is recognized by major operating systems with minimal setup. With straightforward installation, simple BIOS/UEFI recognition, and easy OS initialization, this SSD makes performance upgrades accessible whether you’re refreshing a gaming PC, a workstation, or a laptop that supports NVMe storage.
• Consistent reliability and low power design: Beyond peak speed, the DLX4 emphasizes dependable endurance through high-quality flash memory, robust firmware, and efficient power management. Thermal-aware operation helps keep temperatures in a safe range during sustained workloads, mitigating thermal throttling and preserving long-term performance. Lower idle power translates to cooler laptops and quieter desktops, enabling longer, more comfortable sessions of heavy use without sacrificing performance or battery life.
