Goodram PX700 SSD: European Assembly and Gen 4 Performance

The Goodram PX700 is a single-sided PCIe 4.0 SSD available in 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB capacities. The drive features a Maxio MAP1602 DRAM-less controller and utilizes 512GB NAND flash packages. It is assembled and tested in Poland by Wilk Elektronik, with silicon sourced from Asia.

The drive delivers sequential read and write speeds up to 7,400 MB/s and 6,500 MB/s, respectively. Random read and write IOPS reach 1 million at the 4TB capacity, while the 1TB and 2TB models offer 820K IOPS. The manufacturer provides a five-year warranty and a write endurance of 600TB per terabyte of capacity.

At the time of review, the 1TB and 2TB models were priced at $346 and $418, respectively. The reviewer notes that these prices are high and likely reflect stock shortages rather than the intended market position. The drive does not include proprietary software, requiring users to rely on third-party tools for health and performance management.
