I am getting the rated speed with this NVME in a computer I built for my wife on a b550 motherboard! If I get any life out of this item it will be a winner! With memory getting more expensive this is a solid purchase!

- Better Random 4K speeds compared to my 2TB 980 PRO in CrystalDiskMark (read/write 46/161 MB/s compared to 30/112 MB/s running at PCIe 4x4) - Acceptable Sequential read/write speeds

I really like how it gives you the ability to change the rgb and fan curves. It runs at a constant 46°C in my pc. I also like that you can upgrade the ssd in the heat sync if you want. I have been thinking about eventually upgrading from the 2tb to a 4tb and the heat sync can be easily swapped to the 4tb.





No issues installing and running fresh copy of windows 10 on it; some SSD's have problems with this.


runs fast , read/writhe 13559/13259 runs cool, like 52c with my gygabyte x970 normal board cooler i had the lastest bios, so cant momment on that, what immediatly reconize

works decent speeds


Insanely easy installation, great amount of space, speedy, and not at too bad a price point.

My kids love to play game that have large storage keep capped no room to install now with 2 tb plenty room to install



- "Cheap" - Fast enough - Speeds at or above advertised specs
