LRC20Z002TG8 Kioxia EXCERIA G2 2TB PCIe Gen 3 M.2 2280 SSD

Enterprise M.2 2280 NVMe SSD for Boot and Read-Optimised Storage with the LRC20Z002TG8

The LRC20Z002TG8 is a Kioxia EXCERIA G2 internal NVMe SSD designed for servers and appliances that expose an M.2 2280 (M-Key) slot, delivering a compact, low-latency storage tier for OS, hypervisor, and read-intensive datasets. Using 3D TLC NAND and an NVMe protocol stack tuned for consistent responsiveness, the LRC20Z002TG8 supports predictable startup and application launch behaviour in dense edge and rack deployments where drive bays are limited.

On a PCIe Gen3 x4 link, the LRC20Z002TG8 provides up to 2100 MB/s sequential read and 1700 MB/s write, aligning with platforms where PCIe Gen4 is not required but reliability and controlled power are critical. Random performance up to 360k/400k IOPS (read/write) and data management features such as TRIM and idle-time garbage collection help sustain steady-state operation. With 0.05W idle, L1.2 low-power standby support, and 5.3W active draw, the LRC20Z002TG8 fits edge compute nodes and compact servers that must manage thermals and PSU headroom without sacrificing NVMe efficiency.

Why Choose the LRC20Z002TG8?

The LRC20Z002TG8 balances density and performance in a single M.2 footprint, enabling fast boot volumes and read-optimised storage without consuming front-accessible bays. With 800 TBW endurance (0.219 DWPD over 5 years) and 1.5M hours MTTF/MTBF, the LRC20Z002TG8 supports scalable rollouts where fleet consistency, predictable wear, and low idle power directly improve operational stability.

Kioxia engineering focuses on NAND reliability, controller-level efficiency, and compatibility with modern data centre standards, making the LRC20Z002TG8 a practical choice for standardised imaging, lifecycle planning, and dependable NVMe integration across mixed server and appliance platforms.

Key Applications:

• Server boot and OS volumes
• Hypervisor and appliance storage
• Edge compute nodes with M.2 NVMe slots
• Read-intensive workstation storage
