  • Communication Protocol

    Most SSDs use SATA III or PCI Express.

    Almost all 2.5" SSDs connect via SATA III while most M.2 SSDs connect via PCI Express.


    PCI Express connection offers higher speeds, but this is mainly noticeable in demanding applications (high-resolution video processing, transferring large files, etc.) and is not necessary for everyday use.

    PCI Express 3.0

    Connecting to the PCI Express expansion port of the motherboard. Equally popular way of connecting SSD hard drives directly to the motherboard. This connection offers the highest speeds.

  • Write Speed

    Indicative size for the maximum speed of the hard disk during data recording. The larger the size, the faster the data recording.

    For an SSD that uses the SATA III protocol, the average recording speed is 300MB/s, while for one with NVMe it is 1200MB/s.

    These differences make sense in particularly demanding use cases (e.g. high-resolution video editing). For most users, the differences will not be noticeable.

  • Read Speed

    Indicative size for the maximum speed of the hard disk during data reading. The larger the size, the faster the data reading speed.

    An average reading speed for an SSD using the SATA III protocol is 600MB/s, while for one with NVMe it is 2000MB/s.

    These differences make sense in particularly demanding use cases (e.g. high-resolution video editing). For most users, the differences will not be noticeable.

Description

Description

Game at Xtreme

The XPG SPECTRIX S20G is a gaming SSD from start to finish, and its style reflects that. It features a unique and striking X-shaped RGB design that outshines the competition. The RGB lighting effects can be customized via software. For ease of use, the S20G is compatible* with most motherboards from all major brands. Additionally, the fine mesh finish gives the SSD an impressive yet elegant look that will surprise and impress you.

*For information on support and operation of the RGB control software, please refer to the official website of each motherboard vendor.

Exceptional Performance

Enhance your gaming experience with the SPECTRIX S20G, which is compatible with NVMe 1.3. Built with 3D NAND Flash and read/write speeds of 2500/1800MB/s, it loads games faster and delivers smoother gameplay. It works with all the latest Intel and AMD platforms for hassle-free compatibility.

Leave your opponents in the dust

Using the PCIe Gen3x4 interface and supporting SLC Caching and Host Memory Buffer, you will surpass your competitors with random read/write speeds of 160K/190K IOPS.

Defending Your Integrity

The SPECTRIX S20G supports LDPC (Low-Density Parity-Check) error correction code technology for detecting and correcting a wider range of data errors. Additionally, with AES 256 encryption, it ensures the security and integrity of your data.

SSD Toolbox

The SSD ToolBox automatically ensures that you have the latest firmware for optimal performance and allows you to monitor the proper functioning of the drive and its remaining lifespan through SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) features. It also enables you to monitor the current operating temperature, capacity, and total space used.

Capacity
500 GB

Capacity

The golden ratio of cost and capacity for now is 500GB and 1TB.

For gaming or professional programs that require a lot of space for their installation, a capacity of at least 500GB is recommended. 

As an indication, a 1TB hard drive can hold about 250 thousand photos taken with a 12MP camera or 250 movies.
Communication Protocol

NVMe
Yes

NVMe

Communication template that enhances the performance and speed of SSDs.

The higher speeds offered by an NVMe drive are mainly applicable to demanding applications (high-resolution video processing, transferring large files, etc.) and are not necessary for simple everyday use.
Heatsink
Yes

Heatsink

The SSD is equipped with a heatsink to maintain low temperatures, ensuring better performance and more efficient heat dissipation in the SSD.

Dimensions

Form Factor
M.2 (Type 2280)

Form Factor

The term form factor refers to the physical size of SSDs. The motherboard must support the form factor of the SSD in order for it to be installed.


The higher speeds offered by an NVMe drive are mainly applicable to demanding applications (such as high-definition video processing, transferring large files, etc.) and are not necessary for everyday use.

M.2 (Type 2280)
The motherboard must support the form factor in order for the SSD to be installed on it. It is worth noting that M.2 drives are divided into those that use the SATA protocol and those that use PCI Express. Of the SSDs that use the PCI Express protocol, most also support NVMe technology, which allows them even faster speeds if supported by the motherboard.

Write Speed

Indicative size for the maximum speed of the hard disk during data recording. The larger the size, the faster the data recording.

For an SSD that uses the SATA III protocol, the average recording speed is 300MB/s, while for one with NVMe it is 1200MB/s.

These differences make sense in particularly demanding use cases (e.g. high-resolution video editing). For most users, the differences will not be noticeable.
Maximum 4KB Random Write
190000 IOPS

Maximum 4KB Random Write

Indicative size for the maximum speed of the hard disk in data recording during general use, for example (opening the computer/using applications). The larger the size, the faster it is in these functions.

Average read speed for an SSD using the SATA III protocol is 80,000 IOPS, while for one with NVMe it is 380,000 IOPS.

These differences make sense in particularly demanding use (e.g. high-resolution video editing). For most users, the differences will not be noticeable.

    One of the fastest M2 PCI Express 3.0, it also features ARGB lighting which I control through the IMS Center. Its price is perfect at 37.50 euros, I believe it is a good choice.

    Surely this is the most beautiful rgb M.2 SSD that exists. It achieves the promised speeds and sometimes even more. Its LEDs can be controlled through its own program and also with others like ASUS's armorycrate, but in this case the speed drops up to 1/4 lower. Adata's SSD program is satisfactory and it also has cloning that works perfectly, 250GB in 20 minutes compared to Samsung Evo. For the money I bought it, 38 euros, it was very good value for money.
