Review on πŸ’¨ Silicon Power 2TB NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen3x4 2280 TLC SSD - Ultra-fast speeds up to 3,400/3,000MB/s by Corey Owens

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Tricky exercise and misleading advertising

Ordered a 2TB SSD based on the Phison E12 controller, which has a "sequential read speed of up to 3500MB/s; Write speeds up to 3000MB/s", but this article is based on the Phison E12s controller and there is no way to increase the advertised speeds, instead it achieves a maximum sequential read speed of 3000MB/s; write speeds are at 2900 MB/s and the company neither denied nor refused to acknowledge this fact and ignored the message Silicon Power USA Inc initially responded to my question by stating "The item has the correct firmware and should behave that way " but then didn't reply when I asked which Phison controller was used in the article. They didn't even bother to send a different firmware or whatever because they know full well that it's the one Controller goes and cannot be repaired Shame on Silicon Power USA Inc for pushing a cheaper version of the controller and not mentioning it t has.

Pros
  • Handy thing
Cons
  • Operating speed
