Kingston NV2 500GB Gen4 NVMe SSD — 3500 MB/s Laptop Upgrade
The Kingston NV2 500GB NVMe SSD is a PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 2280 internal drive built for fast game loading, 4K video editing and heavy multitasking. It delivers up to 3500 MB/s sequential read and 2100 MB/s sequential write, with a 160 TBW endurance rating and a 5-year manufacturer warranty. At N.N Laptops, Shop 66A, 3rd Floor, Hafeez Center, Gulberg III, Lahore, this drive costs Rs. 23,499 with a 30-day check warranty and Lahore delivery.
If you're upgrading an older laptop, this SSD breathes new life into machines like the Lenovo ThinkPad T480, Dell Latitude 7490, or HP EliteBook 840 — we've personally bench-tested it in dozens of models here in Lahore. It's a drop-in upgrade for any M.2 NVMe slot, and we'll confirm compatibility via WhatsApp 0314 4000131 before you order.
Why choose the Kingston NV2 for your laptop?
Unlike a SATA SSD, the NV2 uses the Gen4 PCIe bus for speeds that make your system feel instant — Windows boots in under 9 seconds, large games load in seconds, and 4K footage scrubs without lag. It's also backwards compatible with Gen3 slots, so it works in laptops from 2018 onward, though you'll see Gen3 speeds (around 3500 MB/s read). For customers in Karachi, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, or Faisalabad, we ship nationwide via TCS or Leopards — free within Lahore, via TCS / Leopards in Pakistan.
Performance you can trust
We test every Kingston NV2 in our shop before it goes out — sequential reads average 3500 MB/s, writes 2100 MB/s, and random 4K performance is strong for everyday multitasking. The drive uses dynamic SLC caching for quick small writes, and the controller manages thermals well. In a slim laptop without a heatsink, we recommend monitoring temps with HWiNFO the first week; most users see 55-70°C under load, which is well within spec. For heavy sustained writes, a thin thermal pad between the drive and chassis helps.

Frequently asked questions
Is this compatible with my Dell Latitude 7490?
If your laptop has an M.2 2280 NVMe slot (most 2018+ business and gaming laptops), yes. Send us your exact model on WhatsApp 0314 4000131 and we'll confirm before shipment.
Is this Gen3 or Gen4 NVMe?
This drive is Gen4 (PCIe 4.0 x4). It is backwards compatible with older Gen3/Gen2 slots, but you'll only see Gen3 speeds (around 3,500 MB/s) if your laptop's slot is Gen3.
What is TBW and does 160 TBW matter for me?
TBW means "terabytes written" — the total amount of data you can write to the drive before the warranty ends. 160 TBW is enough to write the full capacity of this drive every day for several years, which is far more than typical home or business use.
Will my Windows licence transfer if I clone the old drive?
Yes. Windows 10 and 11 licences are tied to your motherboard, not the SSD. After cloning, Windows will reactivate automatically over the internet.
Do you offer installation in Lahore?
Yes — Rs. 1,500 in-shop install with clone, free for purchases above Rs. 20,000. Walk into Shop 66A, Hafeez Center any time during business hours.
