About This Product
The OWC Aura Ultra IV is a 500GB M.2 2280 NVMe SSD utilizing a PCIe Gen 4 x4 interface. This drive offers sequential read/write speeds typical of mid-range PCIe 4.0 SSDs, suitable for general computing and light content creation. Its performance is competitive with other entry-level PCIe 4.0 drives, but it may not match the sustained speeds of premium models.
