Upgrade compatible internal storage with this SOMNAMBULIST M.2 2280 NVMe solid state drive. The pictured drive is labeled PCIe Gen 3 x4 and is offered in five capacity choices for laptop and desktop systems with a suitable NVMe storage slot.
Capacity Options
Choose 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, 1TB or 2TB. Each selection supplies one drive at the selected nominal capacity, not a multi-drive bundle. Photos show 512GB and 1TB examples; the label on the supplied drive should match your selected option. Formatted usable space is lower than the advertised nominal capacity.
Specifications & Performance
- Visible brand: SOMNAMBULIST.
- Form factor: M.2 2280, measuring 80 × 22 mm as shown in the size diagram.
- Pictured interface: PCIe Gen 3 x4, NVMe.
- Advertised maximum sequential speeds: up to 2600 MB/s read and 1600 MB/s write. These are supplier claims, not independently verified results or guaranteed speeds for every capacity.
- Supplier graphics advertise 3D NAND; controller, NAND grade, cache configuration and endurance rating are not specified.
- Supplier-listed overall dimensions: 80 × 22 × 3.5 mm. The diagram confirms length and width only; verify thickness and clearance for your device.
- Supplier-listed weight: 55 g. Whether this includes packaging is not specified.
Actual performance depends on capacity, host system, PCIe configuration, workload, available space and temperature. The older written specification lists USB 3.0, but the photos show a bare internal PCIe NVMe module, not a USB drive. No USB enclosure or adapter is listed as included.
Compatibility: Check Before Buying
Your device must support an M.2 2280 PCIe NVMe SSD with matching connector keying, mounting position and physical clearance. An M.2 slot alone does not establish compatibility: SATA-only M.2 slots and SATA-only enclosures are not suitable for an NVMe drive. Check your computer's manual for supported capacities, boot support, firmware and cooling requirements.
Supplier images show a game console, but compatibility with a specific console, including PS5, is not established. Do not rely on the promotional console image when selecting this drive. Operating-system support and model-specific compatibility are not documented in this listing.
What's Included
- 1 × M.2 NVMe solid state drive in the selected capacity.
Computer, enclosure, adapter, heatsink, tools and mounting screw are not listed as included. Packaging shows a three-year warranty claim, but provider, coverage, eligibility and claim procedure have not been supplied; confirm the written terms before relying on it. Printed certification marks are not a substitute for supporting documentation.
Installation & Proper Use
- Back up important data before replacing storage. Check your device's service instructions and prepare any required operating-system installation or migration media.
- Shut down the device, unplug external power and disconnect its battery where the service instructions require it. Use electrostatic-discharge precautions and handle the SSD by its edges.
- Align the keyed connector with the correct slot, insert gently and secure it using the device's specified mounting hardware. Do not force or overtighten it.
- Refit any required thermal pad or heatsink according to the device instructions, without removing the SSD label unless the manufacturer explicitly directs it.
- Confirm detection in firmware and the operating system. Initialize and format only the intended new drive; these operations can erase data. Keep ongoing backups after installation.
Safety & Care
- Do not install or remove the drive while powered. Keep it away from liquids, static discharge, bent connectors and excessive heat.
- Maintain the host system's cooling and ventilation. Stop use if the drive or connector is damaged or shows unusual overheating.
- Do not bend the circuit board, touch exposed contacts or apply liquid cleaners. Store an unused drive in protective anti-static packaging in a dry location.
- Keep separate backups of irreplaceable files. Securely erase personal data using an appropriate supported method before transferring or disposing of the drive.
