Product Showcase
Product Showcase
Let's peek at what the HP SSD FX900 PRO SSD looks like.
The package is relatively standard, mainly gray and blue.
You can find a list of the overall features on the backside. The performance of the 2 TB variant isn't listed on the package, but it's 7400 MB/s for reads and 6700 MB/sec for writes.
Here's the drive itself.
The PCB is black. HP drive uses the M.2 2280 form factor, making it 22 mm wide and 80 mm long, and single-sided. It includes Micron 176-layer 3D TLC B47R and 2x 1 GB Nanya NT5AD512M16A4 of DRAM. The controller is InnoGrit IG5236. In terms of technology, you can count on traditional functions that have become an industry standard, including SM2/3/4 of SCA, AES, SHA, RSA, ECC, CRC, RAID, and end-to-end data protection. The 2 TB version offers 7400 MB/s sequential read and 6700 MB/s sequential write while maintaining a random read of 1,344,000 and a write of 1,122,000 IOPS. The TBW is 1200 TB.
The provided graphene thermal pad looks good and should reduce the temperature.
Today we're presenting a review of an HP FX900 Pro M.2 SSD. It's not the first product of this company covered on guru3d. Last time it was the FX900 model, with a 1 TB capacity, it earned the "recommended" award. How will the bigger/faster brother cope with our test suite? These products are sold under the brand "HP". Under official license, these branded storage products are designed, manufactured, and marketed by BIWIN Storage Technology company. FX900 Pro comes in capacities of 512GB, 1TB, 2TB (which we got for the review), and even 4 TB. The target audience are not only gamers but those who want excellent multitasking performance.
HP FX900 1 TB NVMe Review
HP (rather associated with pre-built PCs) is not a new competitor in the market of SSDs. For example, Hilbert checked their SATA and NVMe models in 2020; those were not the first ones from that brand covered on guru3d. This time, it’s an FX900 model we’ve received in a 1 TB variant. It’s manufactured with the assistance of BiWin and comes in 256GB, 512GB, 1TB, and 2TB capacities. It’s aimed at the gamers, according to HP, and it would be fair to place this drive between “entry” and “mid-tier” levels.
