Client NVMe™ SSD

KIOXIA BG6 Series is a line-up of compact form factor NVMe™ SSDs with capacities up to 2,048 GB, and leverages a PCIe® 4.0, NVMe™ 1.4c specification compliant interface and KIOXIA BiCS FLASH™ generation 6 TLC flash memory*. With higher bandwidth, improved flash management and Host Memory Buffer (HMB) technology, the BG6 Series SSDs deliver very high read performance for compact form factor SSDs of up to 6,000 MB/s (sequential read) and up to 900K IOPS (random read).

KIOXIA BG6 Series SSDs are available in capacities of 256 GB, 512 GB, 1,024 GB and 2,048 GB in M.2 Type 2230 and Type 2280 module form factors, making them suitable for thin and light system designs, such as ultra-thin PCs. The BG6 Series offers a Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) model option, supporting TCG Opal Version 2.01.

  • Product image may represent a design model.
  • Availability of the SED model line-up may vary by region.
  • Definition of capacity: KIOXIA Corporation defines a megabyte (MB) as 1,000,000 bytes, a gigabyte (GB) as 1,000,000,000 bytes and a terabyte (TB) as 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. A computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of 1 GB = 2^30 = 1,073,741,824 bytes and therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity (including examples of various media files) will vary based on file size, formatting, settings, software and operating system, such as Microsoft Operating System and/or pre-installed software applications, or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.
  • IOPS: Input Output Per Second (or the number of I/O operations per second).
  • TBW: Terabytes Written. The number of terabytes that may be written to the SSD for the specified lifetime.
  • Read and write speed, tested on the state of "Host Memory Buffer (HMB) = On", may vary depending on the host device, read and write conditions, and file size.
  • Read and write speed may vary depending on various factors such as host devices, software (drivers, OS etc.), and read/write conditions.
  • MTTF (Mean Time to Failure) is not a guarantee or estimate of product life; it is a statistical value related to mean failure rates for a large number of products which may not accurately reflect actual operation. Actual operating life of the product may be different from the MTTF.
