Review on ๐Ÿ’พ Gamerking 128GB M.2 SSD Internal Solid State Drive - High Performance NGFF Hard Drive for Desktop Laptop SATA III 6Gb/s M.2 2280 by Ryan Hampton

Works well in a converted Chromebox

I took an Acer CXI2 End of Life Chromebox and converted it into a Linux Mint PC. I upgraded the RAM to 8GB and the 16GB SSD to Gamerking SSD M.2 2242 128GB. After flashing the BIOS with MrChromebox, I was able to boot Linux Mint from a USB stick. The new (old) computer works fine. The only downside is disassembling the Chromebox, which has SSD and memory slots on the bottom of the motherboard.

Pros
  • Same as everything before
Cons
  • Big and bulky
