The Aorus Gen4 7300 is a solid-state drive in the M.2 2280 form factor, launched on January 10th, 2023. It is available in capacities ranging from 1 TB to 2 TB. This page reports specifications for the 1 TB variant. With the rest of the system, the Aorus Gen4 7300 interfaces using a PCI-Express 4.0 x4 connection. The SSD controller is the PS5018-E18-41 from Phison, a DRAM cache chip is available. Aorus has installed 176-layer TLC NAND flash on the Gen4 7300, the flash chips are made by Micron. To improve write speeds, a pseudo-SLC cache is used, so bursts of incoming writes are processed more quickly. Thanks to support for the fast PCI-Express 4.0 interface, performance is excellent. The Gen4 7300 is rated for sequential read speeds of up to 7,300 MB/s and 6,000 MB/s write.
The SSD's price at launch is unknown. The warranty length is set to five years, which is an excellent warranty period. Aorus guarantees an endurance rating of 700 TBW, a typical value for consumer SSDs.
