The second generation of Kingston's popular consumer M.2 SSD. Relating to the M.2-2280 form factor, it weighs only 7 grams and consumes just under 2.5 watts of electricity. Suitable for installation in most modern PCs, laptops and ultrabooks equipped with an M.2 Key-M slot. It is an extremely successful sequel to the popular Kingston NV1 drive, in which the company's engineers successfully fixed almost all the flaws.
In particular, they replaced the problematic Phison PS5013-E13-31 controller, which periodically suffered from heating, due to which the average temperature of the drive during intensive work rarely exceeds 65 ° C. This decision made it possible to abandon the external radiator, slightly reducing the price of the device. After that, support for the PCI-E 4.0 data exchange interface was added to the drive, which favorably affected the speed performance of the device: the linear read speed reaches 3500 MB / s, while files are written inside the drive at a speed of 2100 MB / s.
Plus, the manufacturer gives a 3-year warranty, backed by a serious time between failures (TBW) of 160 TB. It is also important to note that the Kingston NV2 SNV2S costs a couple of dollars more than the average price tag of most low-cost SATA3 SSDs, making it an equally promising option for entry-level and mid-range gaming PCs, home multimedia PCs, low-cost workstations or modern laptops.

Affordable SSD with PCI-E 4.0 bus support
Kingston NV2 SNV2S is one of the most affordable M.2 SSDs with PCI-E Gen 4 system interface support. It has an impressive storage capacity of 1000 GB, its write speed is 2100 MB/s, and the read speed can reach 3500 MB/s. IOPS indicators in Kingston are not advertised, since entry-level drives can use different variations of the controller and flash memory. In comparison with the first generation of NV1 drives, this model has replaced the control controller, which does not heat up above 65 ° C under heavy load.
No separate heatsink
All this makes the Kingston NV2 SNV2S an excellent option for the main system drive in a mid-range gaming PC. It costs literally a box of matches more than most popular SATA3 SSDs, the operating speeds of which are usually 3-4 times lower. It doesn't have a heatsink, but that's not a problem as most gaming and even consumer grade motherboards come with their own M.2 heatsinks. Due to the low heat level, it is ideal for installation in gaming laptops. And the available terabyte of memory should be enough for most players.
Best SSD for gaming PCs and mid-range laptops
In our opinion, buying a faster SSD from Samsung, WD or Gigabyte doesn't make much sense when it comes to a typical 2023 gaming PC. Gaming tests in recent years have shown that for most games there is not much difference between the average SSD and expensive drives with operating speeds of 5000 MB / s and higher. In open-world games, they load textures give or take at the same speed, which Sony head of gaming division Jim Ryan does not tell us. Perhaps the only disadvantage of the Kingston NV2 SNV2S is the lack of a DRAM buffer. For most ordinary users, this information does not make much sense, but enthusiasts may be upset.
