The standout here is the price. This is a genuine PCIe 5.0 drive – the latest generation, with sequential reads up to 10,000 MB/s and writes up to 9,600 MB/s – and at £214.99 its the cheapest Gen 5 2TB I could find. The next closest options on Amazon are the Lexar ARES PRO Gen 5 2TB at £260.99 and the Crucial P510 Gen 5 2TB at £269, putting the Kioxia roughly £4555 cheaper than either. It also has better write speeds than the Crucial (9,600 vs 8,700 MB/s).
Kioxia (formerly Toshiba Memory) makes their own NAND, so this isnt a no-name drive – its backed by a 5-year warranty and uses BiCS FLASH 3D NAND. If you want Gen 5 speed without paying a Gen 5 premium, this is currently the pick.
