MZ-VKW1T00 Samsung 1TB MLC PCI E 3.0 x4 NVMe Internal (SSD)

MZ-VKW1T00 Overview

The Samsung MZ-VKW1T00 is a 1TB NVMe M.2 SSD, part of the SM961 Series. This means it offers a substantial 1TB storage capacity. But what do these acronyms – NVMe, M.2, and SM961 – really mean, and how do they affect your computer’s performance? Let’s dive deeper into each of these aspects.
NVMe stands for Non-Volatile Memory Express. It is a storage protocol that is designed to unleash the full potential of high-speed NAND-based storage devices like SSDs. Unlike traditional storage protocols, such as SATA, which were originally developed for slower hard drives, Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCI-E) is optimized for the ultra-fast data transfer rates SSDs are capable of.
