SSD Kioxia Exceria G3 1TB M.2 PCIe 5.0 NVMe LVC10Z001TG8

The KIOXIA EXCERIA G3 is an entry-level PCIe® 5.0 NVMe SSD in M.2 2280 format designed for desktops and notebooks. Built with KIOXIA BiCS FLASH™ 3D flash memory and NVMe™ 2.0c support, this drive offers up to 2 GB capacity and sequential read speeds up to 10,000 MB/s and write speeds up to 8,900 MB/s to accelerate everyday tasks, content creation workflows and modern gaming or AI-assisted applications.

Advantages

EXCERIA G3 combines the PCIe® Gen5 x4 interface with NVMe™ 2.0c to reduce I/O latency and deliver high sequential performance. The M.2 2280 form factor fits both laptops and desktop motherboards, while BiCS FLASH™ 3D NAND provides a compact, vertically stacked memory design. Improved label-based heat dissipation helps maintain stable performance under sustained workloads. SSD Utility management software enables drive monitoring, maintenance and life remaining checks.

Suitable for

• Everyday PC tasks (boot drive, application launch)
• Gaming (reduced load times for games and levels)
• Content creation (video/photo editing workflows)
• AI-assisted workloads and modern software that benefit from high throughput
