Optimus 5100 1TB M.2 2280 SSD

The SanDisk Optimus 5100 is a 1TB internal solid state drive built in the M.2 2280 form factor. It uses QLC 3D CBA NAND and connects through a PCI-Express 4.0 x4 interface with the NVMe protocol. The drive targets desktop and laptop upgrades that need high throughput without a heatsink.

PCI-Express 4.0 x4 interface limits

The PCI-Express 4.0 x4 link caps theoretical bandwidth at roughly 8 GB/s per direction. Sequential reads reach up to 7100 MBps and writes up to 6700 MBps within that ceiling. Random performance scales to 1,000,000 read IOPS and 1,300,000 write IOPS. The controller draws 4.1 W active and 4 mW idle.

1TB capacity and 600 TBW endurance

At 1TB the drive stores operating systems, applications and large media libraries with room for growth. The 600 TBW rating covers heavy daily writes for years of typical workloads. Sustained write-heavy tasks such as continuous video capture will consume that budget faster. Operating range spans 0°C to 85°C.

Questions about this item

Is this the only capacity available for the Optimus 5100?

The Optimus 5100 is listed here as a 1TB drive. Other capacities may exist in the range but are not shown in this listing.

What does the 7100 MBps sequential read mean for everyday use?

Large files and game levels load near the drive's peak speed. Typical mixed workloads will run lower, but still well above PCIe 3.0 limits.

Does the PCIe 4.0 x4 interface limit performance on older motherboards?

On a PCIe 3.0 slot the drive will operate at 3.0 x4 speeds, capping sequential throughput below the rated 7100 MBps.
