KIOXIA EXCERIA PRO NVMe Gen4 2TB SSD Review

Storage/SSD by stefan @ 2023-04-27

The EXCERIA PRO 2TB drive from KIOXIA, even if it does not often hit the rated performance numbers, it is quite speedy overall and should be fine for most applications/games. When stressed, the temperatures did climb up to about 74 degrees Celsius and at that moment the SLC cache got depleted too and we noted gradual drops in performance, to a minimum of about 500MB/s.
