Compact M.2 PCIe NVMe Storage
AMP M.2 PCIe NVMe SSDs combine a compact board-level form factor with the bandwidth and low-latency command path of PCI Express and NVMe. The portfolio spans Gen4, Gen3 and Gen2 configurations for commercial, industrial, embedded, edge and networking platforms.
PCIe NVMe Defines the Data Path
These drives communicate over PCI Express using NVMe. An M.2 connector does not automatically support both PCIe NVMe and M.2 SATA devices; host interface support and keying must be confirmed.

View solutionsM.2 PCIe NVMe SSD FAQ
What is the difference between M.2 NVMe and M.2 SATA?
M.2 describes the physical form factor. NVMe drives communicate over PCI Express, while M.2 SATA drives use the SATA interface. Confirm the connector keying and interfaces supported by the host before selecting a drive.
Which PCIe generations and lane configurations are available?
AMP lists selected PCIe Gen4 x4, Gen3 x4, Gen3 x2 and Gen2 x4 series. Actual performance depends on the drive configuration and the PCIe generation and lane count supported by the host.
Which M.2 form factors are available?
The portfolio includes M.2 2230, 2242 and 2280 configurations. All are 22mm wide; the final two digits indicate approximate board length in millimeters. Confirm the host mounting position and available clearance.
Can a Gen4 M.2 NVMe SSD work in a Gen3 host?
PCIe devices may negotiate a lower supported link generation when the drive and host are compatible, but performance will be limited by the host. Confirm connector keying, firmware, lane count, power, thermal and platform compatibility before qualification.
Are commercial- and industrial-grade options available?
Yes. Commercial and industrial configurations are available in selected series and capacities. Temperature range, NAND, firmware features and lifecycle status vary by exact part number.
Do all M.2 NVMe SSDs include encryption or power-loss protection?
No. AES-256, TCG Opal, power-loss protection, power-fail protection and end-to-end data-path protection are selected-series features. Verify every required function on the exact configuration.
What information should I provide with an M.2 NVMe inquiry?
Provide the host platform, M.2 length, connector keying, PCIe generation and lane count, capacity, NAND, workload, operating temperature, firmware requirements, annual volume, existing part number and required program life.
Need Help Selecting an M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD?
Share the required M.2 form factor, PCIe generation, capacity, NAND, operating grade, host platform and lifecycle requirements so AMP can review compatible options.
