Fanxiang S500 Pro M.2 NVMe SSD PCIe 3.0

Upgrade your computer with the Fanxiang S500 Pro M.2 NVMe SSD PCIe 3.0, a high-speed internal solid state drive designed to give compatible laptops and desktop PCs faster storage performance.

Using a PCIe Gen 3 x4 NVMe interface, the S500 Pro can achieve sequential read speeds of up to 3500MB/s and write speeds of up to 3150MB/s, depending on the capacity selected.

Whether you’re upgrading an older PC, building a gaming system or simply need more high-speed storage, the Fanxiang S500 Pro provides a significant performance advantage over traditional mechanical hard drives and conventional SATA SSDs.

High-Speed NVMe Performance

The Fanxiang S500 Pro is available in several capacities, with performance varying according to the version selected:

256GB
Read: Up to 2300MB/s
Write: Up to 1200MB/s
Endurance: Up to 200 TBW

512GB
Read: Up to 3500MB/s
Write: Up to 2700MB/s
Endurance: Up to 320 TBW

1TB
Read: Up to 3500MB/s
Write: Up to 3150MB/s
Endurance: Up to 640 TBW

2TB
Read: Up to 3500MB/s
Write: Up to 3150MB/s
Endurance: Up to 1280 TBW

Faster storage can improve everyday tasks including Windows startup, application loading, game loading, large file transfers and general system responsiveness.

Speeds shown are manufacturer-rated maximum sequential speeds. Actual performance will vary depending on capacity, motherboard, PCIe configuration, workload and other system hardware.

PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe Technology

This SSD uses a PCIe 3.0 x4 interface with the NVMe protocol, providing substantially greater available bandwidth than a conventional SATA III connection.

For computers equipped with a compatible NVMe M.2 slot, this makes the drive particularly suitable for performance-focused upgrades.

M.2 2280 Form Factor

The Fanxiang S500 Pro uses the popular M.2 2280 form factor, measuring approximately:

80 × 22 × 2.4mm

The compact design installs directly onto a compatible motherboard, so separate SATA data and power cables are not required.

This makes it suitable for many compatible:

Desktop PCs • Laptops • Gaming PCs • Workstations

3D TLC NAND Flash

The S500 Pro uses 3D TLC NAND flash memory, providing a balance of performance, storage density and endurance.

It also uses intelligent SLC caching technology to help improve read and write performance during demanding storage operations.

Unlike a traditional mechanical hard drive, an SSD contains no moving mechanical components, allowing silent operation and fast data access.

Faster Booting & Application Loading

Moving your operating system and frequently used applications onto an NVMe SSD can significantly reduce storage-related loading times compared with an older mechanical HDD.

The high-speed storage is ideal for:

Windows and operating systems
Everyday applications
Gaming
Large file transfers
Photo and video applications
Office workloads
Multitasking

Ideal for Gaming PCs

Modern games can involve large amounts of data being loaded from storage.

Installing games on the Fanxiang S500 Pro NVMe SSD can reduce storage-related loading times compared with a traditional hard drive while providing fast access to game files.

The 1TB and 2TB versions are particularly useful where a larger game library or application collection needs to be stored.

High SSD Endurance

The manufacturer specifies different endurance ratings depending on capacity:

256GB – 200 TBW
512GB – 320 TBW
1TB – 640 TBW
2TB – 1280 TBW

TBW (Terabytes Written) is an industry measurement used to indicate the amount of data that can be written to an SSD over its rated service life.

Effective Heat Dissipation

The S500 Pro features a heat-dissipation design intended to help manage operating temperatures during sustained workloads.

Maintaining suitable operating temperatures can help provide stable SSD performance and long-term reliability.

Laptop & Desktop Compatibility

The drive can be used with compatible laptops and desktop computers equipped with an M.2 2280 slot supporting PCIe NVMe SSDs.

Supported operating systems include compatible versions of:

Windows
macOS
Linux
Unix

Please Check Compatibility Before Ordering

This is particularly important with M.2 drives.

Your computer must support:

M.2 2280
PCIe NVMe
PCIe Gen 3 or compatible PCIe generation

Having an M.2 slot alone does not necessarily mean the computer supports an NVMe SSD. Some older computers have M.2 slots that only support SATA-based M.2 drives.

Please check your laptop or motherboard specifications before purchasing.

Important – This Is Not a 2.5-Inch SATA SSD

The Fanxiang S500 Pro is an M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD.

It is not a conventional:

2.5-inch SATA SSD
or
2.5-inch mechanical HDD

If you’re replacing a standard 2.5-inch laptop hard drive, please check whether your computer has a separate NVMe-compatible M.2 slot.

Easy Installation

The SSD installs directly into a compatible M.2 slot on your laptop or desktop motherboard.

The package also includes an installation screw and small screwdriver according to the supplier specification.

Once physically installed, a new SSD may need to be initialised, partitioned and formatted before it appears as a usable drive in your operating system.

If you’re replacing your existing Windows system drive, you’ll normally need to either clone the existing drive or perform a fresh Windows installation.

Storage Capacity Information

Storage manufacturers calculate capacity using decimal measurements, where approximately:

1GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes
1TB = 1,000GB

Your operating system may calculate and display storage differently, so the usable capacity shown by Windows or another operating system will normally appear lower than the advertised capacity.

This is normal for SSDs and other storage devices.
