Our take on the Kingston NV3 4TB

The Kingston NV3 4TB is a PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe M.2 2280 SSD built for bulk storage rather than headline speed. Kingston rates it at up to 6,000 MB/s read and 5,000 MB/s write, with 3D TLC flash and a 1,280 TBW endurance rating. It suits people adding a large game, media or project drive to a desktop or laptop with a free M.2 slot. Against premium Gen4 drives it gives up some peak speed and DRAM, but it holds far more data than typical 1TB and 2TB rivals for the same outlay.

Questions and answers

Is the Kingston NV3 4TB fast enough for gaming?
Yes. Gen4 reads up to 6,000 MB/s load games quickly and beat older Gen3 drives. It is not the fastest Gen4 drive, but the gap shows mainly in benchmark numbers.
Does it need a heatsink?
Not for normal use. It runs warm during long writes, so a desktop board's M.2 heatsink or a cheap aftermarket one helps if you copy large files often.
Will it fit my laptop?
It is a standard M.2 2280 drive, so it fits any laptop slot that accepts that length and PCIe NVMe. Check that your slot supports Gen4 to get full speed; Gen3 slots work but run slower.
Is it better than a premium Gen4 drive like the Samsung 990 Pro?
The 990 Pro is faster and has DRAM, which helps sustained writes. The NV3 makes more sense when you want maximum capacity in one slot and do not need top speed.
What is the endurance rating?
Kingston rates it at 1,280 TBW, which is generous for a consumer drive and fine for years of games, photos and video.
What comes in the box?
Just the drive. No screw, heatsink or cloning software is included, so have a mounting screw ready if your board does not have one.

At Newegg, for $579.99, 16% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
