Launched in March 2021, the drive adopts a strategy by Kingston to only advertise the performance and endurance numbers that are possible with any drive hardware combination. We did some digging, and are drawn to the origins of the NV1.

This makes our review probably the first instance of an SMI+QLC combination. This went against every other review of the NV1 we read so far, which points to a combination of a Phison E13T series controller, with either TLC or QLC NAND flash, depending on the drive capacity. After our testing, when we peeled the label for component photography, we discovered that our drive combined a Silicon Motion SM2263XT DRAM-less controller, with 96-layer QLC NAND flash by Micron Technology. Read all about it in our detailed performance review of the 1 TB variant. Kingston NV1 is an entry-level M.2 NVMe SSD that comes at extremely tempting pricing of just $85 for the 1 TB version.

Going forward, we are continuing our thorough inspection with our suppliers and customers to identify all possible affected ROG Maximus Z690 Hero motherboards in the market and will be working with relevant government agencies on a replacement program. As of December 28, 2021, there have been a few incidents reported in North America. You can identify your part number by referring to the product packaging: Please reference the attached image. The issue potentially affects units manufactured in 2021 with the part number 90MB18E0-MVAAY0 and serial number starting with MA, MB, or MC. In our ongoing investigation, we have preliminarily identified a potential reversed memory capacitor issue in the production process from one of the production lines that may cause debug error code 53, no post, or motherboard components damage. We have recently received incident reports regarding the ROG Maximus Z690 Hero motherboard. ASUS is committed to producing the highest quality products and we take every incident report from our valued customers very seriously.
