M.2 is no longer used for enterprise drives like this. This prototype and the current model it's being compared against are 2.5" drives using the U.3 connector, and the power consumption is well beyond what the small M.2 form factor can handle. But you're correct that it's a PCIe x4 link, and that's what determines how much performance the rest of the SSD is designed to provide.
