NVMe SSDs in Lebanon.

M.2 NVMe SSDs in Lebanon for fast boot times and quick game loads. We carry PCIe Gen5 drives such as the Samsung 9100 PRO, Kingston FURY Renegade G5, WD_BLACK SN8100 and MSI Spatium M580, PCIe Gen4 drives such as the Samsung 990 PRO and 990 EVO Plus, Kingston KC3000, FURY Renegade and NV3, and Transcend and MSI Spatium M480 Pro, plus Gen3 models. Sizes run from 250 GB to 8 TB in M.2 2280, 2242 and 2230. The PC builder checks your board's M.2 slots.

Gen3, Gen4 or Gen5?

The generation describes the PCIe link between the drive and the motherboard. Each new generation roughly doubles the available bandwidth.

• Gen5: the highest sequential speeds, for AM5 and Intel LGA1851 boards with a Gen5 M.2 slot. Best for huge file transfers, video work and future-proof builds. These drives run warm, so use the board's heatsink or a heatsink version.
• Gen4: the mainstream choice for gaming and work PCs. Games load quickly on any good Gen4 drive.
• Gen3: fine for office PCs, older boards and compact devices.

Every generation works in a slot of a different generation; it simply runs at the slower of the two speeds.

Pick the right length

M.2 drives are named by width and length. M.2 2280 (80 mm) is the standard desktop size. M.2 2230 and 2242 drives, such as the Kingston NV3 2230 and Transcend 410S and 400S, suit compact PCs, handheld consoles and some laptops. Your motherboard listing shows which lengths each M.2 slot accepts, and the builder checks it.

Choosing by use

System and games drive

A 1 TB or 2 TB Gen4 drive such as the Kingston KC3000, Samsung 990 EVO Plus or Transcend Gen4x4 gaming SSD covers most builds.

Creators and enthusiasts

The Samsung 9100 PRO, Kingston FURY Renegade G5 and WD_BLACK SN8100 suit large projects, fast scratch disks and high-end AM5 and Z890 builds. Heatsink versions of the Samsung 990 PRO, 9100 PRO and Kingston FURY Renegade fit boards without an M.2 cover.

Extra capacity

4 TB and 8 TB drives keep a whole library on fast storage.

Moving Windows to a new NVMe SSD

Upgrading an older PC? You can install a fresh copy of Windows on the new NVMe drive and keep the old drive for files, or clone the old drive with the SSD maker's migration tool. A fresh install is usually the cleanest start.

Fit and installation tips

Some boards share lanes between M.2 slots and SATA ports, so filling a slot can switch off SATA connectors. The PC builder flags this, so you know before you order which drives and ports can be used together.

For SATA SSDs and hard drives, go back to SSDs and storage. Browse motherboards with Gen5 M.2, the Samsung, Kingston and Transcend pages, or all PC components. Some drives are priced on request and quoted by email. Build your PC and pay cash on delivery across Lebanon.
