About This Product
The OWC Aura Pro IV is a 4TB M.2 2242 NVMe SSD utilizing a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface. Its compact M.2 2242 form factor is suitable for devices with limited space, such as some laptops or mini PCs, where larger M.2 2280 drives may not fit. While offering PCIe Gen 4 performance, its 2242 size may limit peak speeds compared to larger 2280 drives due to controller and NAND configurations, though it still provides a significant upgrade over SATA SSDs.
Verdict
“Best for users needing high-capacity PCIe 4.0 storage in a compact M.2 2242 form factor.”
