VisionTek DLX3 512GB NVMe SSD

The VisionTek DLX3 512GB M.2 2280 drive uses a PCIe 3.0 x4 interface and NVMe 1.3 protocol. It is built with 3D NAND flash and an InnoGrit IG5216 controller for consumer workloads. Sequential reads reach 3300 MBps and writes reach 2900 MBps.

Fits M.2 2280 slots with PCIe 3.0 x4 wiring

The 2280 form factor installs directly into a compatible motherboard or laptop slot without cables. The NVMe protocol removes the overhead of older storage interfaces. Idle power draw is 0.3W, leaving more of the system power budget for other components.

Sustained performance within 0°C to 70°C operating

Random 4K reads hit 370K IOPS and writes hit 288K IOPS under load. Active power consumption is 4.75W while the controller manages thermal conditions. The drive is rated for storage temperatures from -40°C to 85°C when not powered.

Questions about this item

At what temperature does the drive hit its operating limit during sustained heavy use?

The DLX3 is rated for an operating range up to 70°C; sustained workloads that push the controller beyond that threshold will trigger thermal throttling to protect the NAND and InnoGrit IG5216 controller.

How much power and heat does the SSD produce when running all day?

Active power draw is 4.75W and idle draw is .3W, so continuous operation adds modest heat inside the chassis — ensure the M.2 slot has adequate airflow or a motherboard heatsink.

What host interface and keying must my system provide for this M.2 2280 module to work?

The drive requires an M-key M.2 slot wired for PCI-Express 3.0 x4 with NVMe 1.3 support; it will not operate in slots that only provide PCIe x2 or x1 electrical connections.
