Solidigm P44 Pro 2TB -- High-Capacity SK Hynix PCIe 4.0 NVMe Review (2026)
The Solidigm P44 Pro 2 TB doubles the capacity of the 1 TB model while maintaining the same in-house SK Hynix controller platform, making it a compelling content-creator drive.
Controller & Memory
At 2 TB, the P44 Pro shares the same SK Hynix in-house controller, 176-layer 3D TLC NAND, and LPDDR4 DRAM cache as its 1 TB sibling but scales endurance to 1,200 TBW. The 7,000/6,500 MB/s sequential throughput remains unchanged. The double-sided PCB at 2 TB may limit thin-laptop compatibility.
The 2 TB capacity targets content creators, gamers, and PS5 owners who want room for a large library. The in-house controller provides consistent performance and competitive power consumption. For users who do not need the absolute peak of PCIe 4.0, the P44 Pro 2 TB offers a good balance of capacity, endurance, and price.

P44 Pro Performance & Benchmarks
The 2 TB P44 Pro delivers 7,000/6,500 MB/s sequential reads and writes with class-leading random I/O. The larger NAND pool provides a more generous SLC pseudo-cache than the 1 TB. Gaming load times and application launches are competitive with any PCIe 4.0 drive. Power consumption remains among the lowest in the Gen4 flagship tier.
