Client NVMe™ SSD

KIOXIA BG8 Series is a line-up of compact form factor NVMe™ SSDs with capacities up to 2,048 GB, and leverages a PCIe® 5.0, NVMe™ 2.0d specification compliant interface and KIOXIA BiCS FLASH™ generation 8 flash memory. With higher bandwidth, improved flash management and Host Memory Buffer (HMB) technology, the BG8 Series SSDs deliver very high read performance for compact form factor SSDs of up to 10,300 MB/s (sequential read) and up to 1,435 KIOPS (random read).

KIOXIA BG8 Series SSDs are available in capacities of 512 GB, 1,024 GB and 2,048 GB in M.2 Type 2230, Type 2242 and Type 2280 module form factors, making them suitable for thin and light system designs, such as ultra-thin PCs and AI PCs. The BG8 Series offers a Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) model option, supporting TCG Opal 2.02.

  • Product image may represent a design model.
  • Availability of the SED model line-up may vary by region.
  • Definition of capacity: Kioxia Corporation defines a megabyte (MB) as 1,000,000 bytes, a gigabyte (GB) as 1,000,000,000 bytes and a terabyte (TB) as 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. A computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of 1 GB = 2^30 = 1,073,741,824 bytes and 1TB = 2^40 bytes = 1,099,511,627,776 bytes and therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity (including examples of various media files) will vary based on file size, formatting, settings, software and operating system, and/or pre-installed software applications, or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.
  • IOPS: Input Output Per Second (or the number of I/O operations per second).
  • Read and write speed, tested on the state of "Host Memory Buffer (HMB) = On", may vary depending on the host device, read and write conditions, and file size.
  • Read and write speed may vary depending on various factors such as host devices, software (drivers, OS etc.), and read/write conditions.
  • PCIe is a registered trademark of PCI-SIG.
  • NVMe is a registered or unregistered mark of NVM Express, Inc. in the United States and other countries.
