Seagate FireCuda 520 SSD with PCIe Gen4 ×4 interface is our fastest solid state drive — nearly 45% faster sequential reads/writes than the previous generation. It provides plug-and-play compatibility with all PCIe 4.0 motherboards, and delivers an extreme boost in performance with the latest 3D TLC NAND technology. Upgrading to the FireCuda 520 unlocks Gen4 speed and supplies up to 9× faster sequential reads than SATA SSDs. Seagate solid state drives are now even faster with the lastest Gen 4 M.2 drives. These high performance drives are perfect for entering the game first and avoid waiting for all those textures and shaders to load. Seagate are one of the biggest storage brands in the world and with the 5 year warranty that is offered with these drives realiability is a focus.
