PCIe 5.0 x4 NVMe SSD with integrated heatsink

The SanDisk Optimus GX PRO 8100 is a 1TB internal solid-state drive built on an M.2 2280 form factor. It uses 3D NAND TLC memory and the NVMe 2.0 protocol over a PCI-Express 5.0 x4 interface. The drive targets creators, AI developers and gamers who need sustained high throughput for large project files and demanding workloads.

Low-profile anodized aluminium heatsink with RGB LED

The bundled heatsink adds thermal protection that helps maintain performance during intense, prolonged write sessions. It fits within a 9.76mm z-height so it remains compatible with most motherboard M.2 shields and laptop slots. The RGB lighting can be synchronised with supported motherboard software for system-wide colour coordination.

Verify motherboard PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot and 9.76mm

Confirm that your platform provides a PCIe 5.0 x4 M.2 2280 slot; the drive will operate at lower speeds on older generations. Measure the available vertical space above the slot to ensure the 9.76mm heatsink height clears any CPU cooler, GPU backplate or chassis panel. Check that your BIOS and OS support NVMe 2.0 features for full functionality.

Questions about this item

Will the heatsink on this M.2 2280 drive fit under my motherboard’s integrated M.2 shield?

The drive with heatsink measures 9.76 mm tall, 25 mm wide and 80 mm long. Compare those dimensions with the clearance under your motherboard’s M.2 cover to confirm fit.

My motherboard only has a PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot — will the drive still work at full capacity?

The SSD uses a PCIe 5.0 x4 interface and NVMe 2.0 protocol. It will operate in a PCIe 4.0 slot but sequential speeds will be limited to the slot’s maximum bandwidth.

Is the 600 TBW endurance rating sufficient for heavy video editing and AI workloads?

At 600 TBW the 1 TB model is rated for 600 terabytes of total writes. Typical 4K video projects write far less per day, so the rating covers multi-year professional use.
