Lenovo 512GB M.2 2242 NVMe PCIe Gen3 x4 SSD (00UP748)

Built for systems with tight M.2 2242 slots, this Lenovo SSD delivers 512GB of fast NVMe storage without the bulk of a 2280 drive. Its PCIe Gen3 x4 interface and NVMe 1.3 protocol push sequential reads up to 2400 MB/s, making it a direct upgrade over SATA-based alternatives in compatible ThinkPad and IdeaPad models.

Highlights

• 512GB capacity on 3D TLC NAND for a balance of speed, endurance, and value
• M.2 2242 form factor fits ultra-compact laptops and mini PCs
• PCIe Gen3 x4 with NVMe 1.3 delivers up to 2400 MB/s read and 1700 MB/s write
• Random performance up to 200K IOPS read and 250K IOPS write for responsive multitasking
• Endurance rated at 300 TBW with 1.5 million hours MTBF for long-term reliability

In daily use

Boot times shrink, applications launch instantly, and file transfers complete in seconds. The drive stays cool under load with active power around 3.5W and idles at just 0.05W, helping extend battery life in mobile workstations. It is engineered to withstand 1500G shock and 20G vibration, so your data stays safe even when the laptop is bumped or moved.
