Introduction

Product on Review: NM700 SSD
Manufacturer & Sponsor: Lexar
Street Price: 1TB Model - UK: £190 US: $200 USD

The SATA-based SSD market has now become quite stagnant and saturated. Prices have tumbled in recent years which has been great for mainstream users who can benefit from a slice of solid state action. However, with the arrival of AMD and Intel platforms supplying generous allocation for NVMe technology and M.2 pricing having also dropped significantly, never has there been a better time to breach that 550MB/s threshold and benefit from a faster storage drive.

In the spotlight today is Lexar’s new NM700; an M.2 SSD using NVMe technology and PCI Express Gen3 x4. Lexar claims the NM700 will reach speeds in excess of 3000MB/s. Let’s find out if these claims hold true!

Move beyond the pace of SATA SSD’s with an upgrade to the Lexar NM700 and get 6.5x the speed of SATA-based SSD3. With the PCIe Gen3x4 NVMe, and speeds of up to 3500MB/s read and 2000MB/s write, you will experience improved performance from boot ups to shut downs giving you maximum efficiency without constant slowdowns. The NM700 is built with 3D NAND flash inside.
