The Spectrix S40G was already introduced in July 2019. The SSD comes in a compact M.2 form factor and uses PCIe 3.0 x4 and NVMe 1.3. However, the most striking feature is probably the flat heat sink with RGB lighting.
The SSD is available with capacities of 256 GB, 512 GB, 1 TB, 2 TB and 4 TB. We have the version with a storage capacity of 1 TB for the test.
We took a close look at the SSD in the test to find out whether the Spectrix S40G can still convince more than a year after its release. In addition to the performance, we will of course also look at the RGB lighting.
