PCIe 4.0 Drives: A Practical Choice in the Current Market
PCIe 5.0 drives, while advanced, typically do not provide significant performance benefits over PCIe 4.0 drives for common tasks like gaming or web browsing. Given the current increase in NAND prices and anticipated market trends, opting for a PCIe 4.0 drive, such as the BIWIN Black Opal NV7400, becomes a more sensible choice. This SSD is designed without DRAM, contributing to a lower cost compared to models with a DRAM cache. Testing indicated no throttling issues with its MaXio controller and Micron 232-Layer 3D TLC NAND.
The drive includes BIWIN’s Intelligence software suite, providing various tools for monitoring, updating, and managing the Black Opal NV7400.
BIWIN’s Black Opal NV7400 M.2 NVMe SSD delivers Gen4 performance with durability that inspires long‑term confidence.
