Use Cases & Applications

PC Gaming and Console Storage Expansion The Lexar NM790 1TB NVMe SSD handles the storage demands of modern games directly. Titles with large open worlds and fast-travel systems benefit from the drive’s high random read IOPS. Moreover, PS5 owners can expand the console’s internal storage without purchasing a proprietary drive.

Content Creation and Video Editing Video editors working with 4K or RAW footage require fast sustained write speeds to avoid dropped frames during capture. The NM790’s 6,500 MB/s write throughput accommodates multi-stream workflows on both Windows and macOS-compatible platforms. Additionally, the Dynamic SLC cache prevents speed drops mid-session.

Professional Workstation Use Developers, data analysts, and designers who compile large codebases or process datasets will benefit from the drive’s 1,000,000 random read IOPS. Furthermore, the low-power HMB architecture keeps thermal output manageable in thin-and-light workstations.

Laptop Upgrades Users upgrading from an HDD or older Gen 3 SSD will notice a significant difference in boot times and application launch speeds. The reduced power consumption, meanwhile, helps preserve battery runtime compared to older DRAM-cached NVMe options.
