Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus - M.2 PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD - 1TB
About Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus - M.2 PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD
The Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus is a high-performance Gen4 NVMe drive built on the Phison E18 controller with Micron TLC NAND and a dedicated DDR4 DRAM cache. Sequential reads reach up to 7,100 MB/s (2TB) and writes up to 6,600 MB/s (2TB) and 6,900 MB/s (4TB). Available from 500GB to 8TB.
Phison E18 Platform
The Phison E18 was the Gen4 performance king before the E26 (Gen5) arrived. Sabrent was an early adopter and has refined its firmware over several years. The result is a mature, well-tested Gen4 drive. Note that Sabrent silently switched the NAND from 96-layer to 176-layer Micron TLC in later production runs, which slightly altered sustained write behavior (for the better, per reviews).
8TB Capacity
Like the TeamGroup MP44 and Kingston FURY Renegade, the Rocket 4 Plus goes up to 8TB. Sabrent was among the first to ship an 8TB M.2 NVMe drive. The 8TB model uses a double-sided PCB.
Endurance and Warranty
350 TBW (500GB), 700 TBW (1TB), 1,400 TBW (2TB), 2,800 TBW (4TB), 5,600 TBW (8TB). The standard warranty is 1 year, extendable to 5 years with product registration on Sabrent's website. Register immediately after purchase. Sabrent provides the Rocket Control Panel utility for firmware updates and drive health monitoring.
Best for: Gen4 builds that want DRAM-backed performance with a proven track record. The Phison E18 platform is thoroughly tested across years of use. The 8TB model is compelling for capacity-focused workstation builds.
Avoid if: Newer Gen4 drives (Samsung 990 Pro, Crucial T500) have slightly higher sequential speeds and newer NAND. The 1-year base warranty is concerning; make sure to register for the 5-year extension.
