1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe Drive

The SanDisk Optimus GX 7100 is a 1TB internal SSD built on 3D NAND TLC memory. It uses the M.2 2280-S3-M form factor and connects through a PCI-Express 4.0 x4 interface running the NVMe 2.0 protocol. The drive targets gamers and creators who need fast sequential and random access for large libraries and active workloads.

Slot Compatibility And System Impact

This module fits any motherboard or laptop with an M.2 2280-S3-M keyed slot wired for PCIe 4.0 x4. It requires no separate heatsink, freeing vertical clearance in thin chassis. The single-sided S3-M layout keeps the opposite side of the PCB clear for tight board spacing, while the NVMe 2.0 command set reduces CPU overhead during heavy I/O.

Thermals Noise And Power Draw

The controller idles at 5 mW and averages 3.4W during reads and 3.7W during writes. With no moving parts the drive produces no audible noise. It is rated for operation from 0°C to +85°C and storage from -40°C to +85°C. The 600TB TBW and 1,750,000-hour MTBF indicate sustained endurance under typical gaming and creative workloads.

Questions about this item

At what temperature does the drive throttle under sustained heavy writes?

The controller can operate up to 85°C before thermal protection reduces performance to stay within safe limits.

What are the typical power draw and noise levels when the SSD runs all day in a laptop?

Active read averages 3.4W and active write averages 3.7W; idle drops to 5mW. With no moving parts the drive is completely silent.

Which M.2 key and slot length must the motherboard provide for this 2280-S3-M module?

The drive requires an M-key PCIe 4.0 x4 slot that accepts 2280-length cards.
