Kingston NV3 Spec and Price in France

Name: Kingston NV3
Brand: Kingston

NVME2TBM.2 22806000 MB/s read

Released September 3, 2024

The NV3 covers Kingston's mainstream PCIe 4.0 tier: 6000 MB/s reads and 5000 MB/s writes, well below the 7000/7000 MB/s the KC3000 posts on the same interface. Its 640TB TBW rating is also a fraction of the KC3000's 1600TB, positioning it for typical desktop and everyday file storage rather than sustained heavy-write workloads. The 5-year warranty matches the rest of Kingston's NVMe lineup despite the lower-tier performance numbers.

43rd of 106 models in the SSD catalog on Sequential read. Tied 42nd of 106 models in the SSD catalog on Sequential write — 3 models share this figure.

What owners and reviewers say

Summarised from 2 source(s), reviewed September 13, 2026. A source is counted only where it names this model exactly. How we track prices

Commonly praised

Reviewers found it respectable for a budget drive, with solid performance and good power efficiency.
It runs cool in use and is expected to sell at a low price.
Owners report it works as advertised and is easy to install, with no trouble over time.

Commonly criticised

Its hardware components can vary between units, so two drives of the same model may differ.
Sustained write performance is weak, and its launch list price was initially high.
Owners flag that its price has risen sharply with the memory market, well above where it started.
