Netac's NV150HK is the first Gen 5 drive to join the company's large range of SSDs. Designed for gaming and content creation use, it offers sequential speeds of up to 14,000MB/s and 13,000MB/s for reads and writes, respectively.
The NV150HK range consists of three models: 1TB, 2TB (the drive we are reviewing) and a flagship 4TB drive. The drive uses a combination of a Silicon Motion controller and 232-layer 3D TLC NAND.
Netac quotes sequential read performance figures for the range of up to 13,000MB/s for the 1TB drive and up to 14,000MB/s for the 2TB and 4TB models. Sequential write performance is quoted as up to 8,000MB/s for the 1TB model and up to 13,000MB/s for the 2TB and 4TB models.
4K random performance for the NV150HK is listed as up to 1.6M IOPS / 1.8M IOPS for random reads/writes for the 1TB model, while the 2TB and 4TB models get ratings of up to 2M IOPS for reads and up to 1.8M IOPS for writes.
The 2TB drive has an endurance rating of 1,200 TBW. The 1TB model gets 600TB, and the 4TB drive, 2,400TBW.
Netac backs the drive with a 5-year limited warranty.
