HP EX900 Plus M.2 35M34AA 1 TB

Affordable M.2 NVMe SSD offering high performance for PC upgrades. Introduced in 2022 as part of the EX900 Plus series, it's designed for users wishing to enhance system speed without transitioning to more expensive SSDs with PCI-E fourth or fifth-generation interfaces. The manufacturer claims a sequential read speed of up to 3300 MB/s and write speed of 2700 MB/s, significantly surpassing SATA SSD performance and accelerating system boot-up, application launch, and data transfer.

For the PCI-E 3.0 interface, this is close to maximum values, although PCI-E 4.0 models offer higher speeds. IOPS data is unspecified, but the performance is adequate for typical scenarios, including running modern high-budget video games and performing office work. The write endurance is 400 TB, ensuring reliable operation throughout the 5-year warranty period, although these aren't the highest numbers by professional standards. The mean time to failure is 1 million hours, slightly exceeding budget segment standards. The universal M.2 2280 form factor (22x80 mm) is compatible with most desktops and laptops with PCI-E 3.0 interest. Additionally, the HP EX900 Plus is noted for low power consumption, which is especially beneficial for mobile devices, and it comes without a heatsink.
