HP FX900 Plus M.2 7F617AA 1 TB

Despite all the fame and weight of the HP brand, its SSD drives are not very widely represented on the European market and are extremely rarely found in the top sales. However, in 2023 they managed to attract the attention of power users with the release of the FX900 Plus drive. This drive is based on the young, but well-proven Innogrit hardware platform, which competently uses technical solutions in both the entry-level and middle class.

In this case we are talking about a controller with support for SLC cache and HMB technology, which replaced expensive buffer SDRAM memory. The controller belongs to the second generation PCI-E 4.0 solutions, which were finally able to unleash the potential of this interface and increased the average operating speed from a conditional 3000 MB/s to 7000 MB/s and higher. As the manufacturer notes, this is progress that we all deserve.

The FX900 Plus drive range includes all the most common options with capacities of 512 GB, 1 TB, 2 TB and 4 TB. The 1 TB version is one of the fastest: read throughput is 7100 MB/s, write throughput is 6300 MB/s. The high level of reliability is confirmed by a 5-year official warranty and a decent guaranteed write resource (TBW) of 600 TB. In general, this SSD provides a fairly instant start of the operating system, efficient work with resource-intensive professional applications, and fast loading of game textures from the drive into RAM.

And thanks to its versatility, the FX900 Plus can be used in a variety of scenarios. The M.2-2280 form factor ensures compatibility with most modern laptops, ultrabooks and motherboards, PCI-E 4.0 support and high line speeds meet the requirements of current generation gaming consoles, and backward compatibility with PCI-E 3.0 simplifies connections to legacy laptops and PC.
