GIGABYTE AORUS Gen4 7300 1 TB M.2 PCI Express 4.0 NVMe 3D TLC NAND

The GIGABYTE AORUS Gen4 7300 SSD (1 TB, M.2) is a high-performance PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive designed for desktops and laptops that require fast storage. Built with a Phison E18 8-channel controller and high-speed 3D TLC NAND, this M.2 SSD delivers sequential read speeds up to 7,300 MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 6,000 MB/s while complying with NVMe 1.4 specifications.

Advantages

The drive combines a 12nm Phison E18 controller, 8 NAND channels with up to 32 CE and DDR4 SLC caching to provide sustained high throughput and low latency for demanding tasks. Selected 3D TLC NAND running at over 1600 MT/s increases performance compared with previous-generation NAND. Native PCIe 4.0 support enables roughly double the sequential read performance versus PCIe 3.0 SSDs, supporting faster system boot, application loading and large-file transfers.

Suitable for

• High-performance gaming PCs and gaming laptops
• Content creation: video editing, 3D rendering, and large asset workflows
• Professional workstations requiring fast scratch or project storage
• General-system acceleration: OS drive and heavy multitasking

Key specifications

• Form factor: M.2
• Interface: PCIe 4.0 x4, NVMe 1.4
• Capacity: 1 TB
• Sequential read: up to 7,300 MB/s
• Sequential write: up to 6,000 MB/s
• Controller: Phison E18 (12nm, 8-channel)
• Flash type: 3D TLC NAND (1600+ MT/s)

How to use

Install the SSD into an available M.2 PCIe 4.0 slot on a compatible motherboard following the motherboard manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure the M.2 slot supports NVMe PCIe mode and secure the module with the mounting screw. After physical installation, initialize and format the drive in your operating system or clone an existing system image if you are replacing a boot drive. Install or update the GIGABYTE CONTROL CENTER (GCC) software to monitor drive health and performance.

Recommendations

For optimal sustained performance, use the SSD in a motherboard M.2 slot with PCIe 4.0 support and maintain adequate cooling. Keep firmware and the GIGABYTE CONTROL CENTER updated to ensure compatibility and latest optimizations.
