The Lexar NM1090 Pro 4TB delivers a sequential read speed of 14,000 MB/s, making it well-suited for tasks involving large, sustained data reads. On the random side, it reaches 2,100,000 IOPS, reflecting strong performance when handling the kind of fragmented, non-sequential access patterns typical of operating system operations and application loading.
On the write side, the Lexar NM1090 Pro 4TB is rated for a sequential write speed of 13,000 MB/s, supporting fast sustained writes across large files and bulk data operations. Its random write performance reaches 1,700,000 IOPS, indicating solid responsiveness when dealing with the smaller, scattered write operations common in multitasking environments and database-style workloads.
In the PassMark SSD benchmark, the Lexar NM1090 Pro 4TB achieves a score of 74,678, providing a standardized reference point for evaluating its overall storage performance across the read, write, and seek operations that the test covers.
The Lexar NM1090 Pro 4TB is an M.2 NVMe SSD operating over a PCIe 5.0 interface with NVMe version 2 support, offering 4,000GB of internal storage built on TLC NAND flash. It uses a Silicon Motion SM2508 controller with 8 channels and a DRAM cache to manage data flow efficiently. Endurance is rated at 2,800 TBW with an MTBF of 1.5 million hours, and the drive is backed by a five-year warranty. It does not include an integrated heatsink or RGB lighting, keeping the physical design minimal.
