This drive has excellent speed even for a 256GB model. The only downside is that it's a bit more expensive than some of the others. Not much, but if the journey takes a long time, the additional price is worth it. Pay attention to the height of the heatsink and the position of the M.2 slot on your board. I am using the MSI B350M Bazooka board. The M.2 connector sits just below the single PCI-e x16 slot. My Sapphire RX580 graphics card has a 1" gap between the bottom edge of the PCI-E connector and the bottom edge of the graphics card cover. I have 2-3mm before the shroud touches the SSD heatsink. I've tested a few other graphics cards with slightly less space than this one and they still fit without putting any pressure on the drive.
