Great quality, happy with it one hundred percent!

Excellent storage. I got it for 6469. I got up without any problems, installed and launched it. The average temperature is 42 degrees. It is a pity that the mother does not support the x4 connection interface, only x2 passes. Because of this, the speed is only from 2 lines, respectively, 2 times lower.

I wasn't thrilled with the product, but it can be used.

If it weren’t for an unpleasant incident with a failure after a power outage, then I think this is quite a decent SSD with good data transfer rates, which will please the eye with built-in backlighting. Its pros: Good design and built-in lighting, confirms the declared characteristics, the presence of a built-in radiator. Different cons: After a sudden blackout in the whole house, it stopped being detected by the computer. After the examination, it was decided to return the funds without the…

The best thing Ive ever used, a great item for everyone!

Speed ​​is exaggerated a bit. A warm enough, well-ventilated body will save the day. RGB lighting is compatible with other RGB, easily found in the application from AsRock RGB. Will do for your money. There is also a Gigabity SSD for Windows, so it finally doesn’t heat up at a temperature of 23 degrees, but there is a radiator installed from the motherboard, but the operating temperature is 50 degrees. The description says, only for a laptop, it got into my box without problems.

Pros
  • Nice RGB, affordable price
Cons
  • Operating temperature 45 degrees

Great value for money, one of the best offers.

I ideally fit into the Dell G15 5511 SE laptop, I was afraid that it wouldn’t fit exactly in height, but the case of the laptop is quite spacious, it seems that the drive would fit even higher. The backlight of the disk is now visible through the ethernet port and headphone jack. If there was a disk with similar parameters without backlighting, of course, I would take it, but at a discount - this one will do just fine :)

Pros
  • Works really fast, almost exactly as stated on the package. I conducted tests immediately after purchase, with reading-writing blocks of 10 mebibytes and gibibytes in size, with a total volume of 10 tebibytes and 100 tebibytes, respectively. The recording schedule is even, the speed is good, I did not conduct specific stress tests, because. in everyday use, in any case, I will not run into the limits of the possibility of an SLC cache, and throttling in temperature. When monitoring the latter, it turned out that the disk feels quite normal inside the laptop: the temperature is always in the range of 47-50 degrees.
Cons
  • A very indistinct "radiator" between the two light diffusers on the sides. They protrude very strongly above the thin heatsink plate, and additional dispersion fins could have been placed at the same height, it would have looked more solid, and would have removed an extra couple of degrees additionally.

I definitely recommend buying, I didn't notice any disadvantages.

I took for 4800 - for this price it's really good. The speed is about 2500 for reading and 2022 for writing (in the characteristics, apparently, the speed of a terabyte is indicated). In terms of temperature - I have not seen more than 48 degrees (without additional radiators). There is backlight control via Gigabyte Fusion. Everything is fine, you can take it.

Pros
  • Price, speed, backlight, cold.
Cons
  • Until I discovered

RBG functions not working

I've tried every possible way to get this thing to adjust RGB on this memory card. I have an MSI B360M Mortar with Mystic Light. S40G Spectrix is said to be compatible with Mystic Light. However, it is definitely not compatible with the latest version of Mystic Light. The product's own software, which I could have used instead of Mystic Light, does not work either. The SSD itself was worth buying when I bought it due to the price and the speed of the drive. The RGB feature doesn't matter to me…

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Mostly fine, but...

Overall I'm happy with the fast drive. RBG is good but the white color on RBG is not very good. I installed this on an Asus Prime z390-a motherboard in the top M.2 slot and had no trouble installing. I had an issue with the ASUS Aura software slowing down the drive (see photo). It's easy to uninstall Aura and use XPG-rbg software to control the RBG, but you can't sync it with another Aura-controlled lighting pattern. I use static lighting so this is not a problem for me. For comparison, I've…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • So-so

Very fast! in internal SSDs

Freshly installed windows on this drive. Everything worked perfectly. Very fast loading. The RGB colors are pretty vibrant. I can't see much of a difference between the brightness of my other peripherals and his. So no complaints here. It also syncs with my ASRock motherboard and polychrome software. (Now if only the polychrome software were stable!) One thing to note about this drive is that the RGB heatsink on top roughly triples the overall thickness of the drive. If you have the same…

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Weight

You get what you pay for!

If you're expecting this to blow your mind, be prepared to be disappointed. Anyone expecting this item to be mid-range in terms of both RGB and performance will be satisfied. RGB lighting does not sync / does not work well with Asus Aura, this causes all RGB lights to lag and appear glitchy when synced to it. m.2 nvme. I decided to just make it work in its own default color. It's a little depressing because I really wanted all my RGB lights to be in sync, but for the price and capacity I feel…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • There are downsides

First thoughts with Mystic Light Setup

in combination with MSi Z270 SLI Mainboard and MSI RTX 2070s Armor. I think in the future I'll just do a clean install of Windows instead of a clone), but I wanted to leave some early notes on installing with MSI Mystic Light for others. As another reviewer noted, Mystic Light recognized it almost immediately. All I had to do was run the program and a new tab for the SSD appeared. And it lights up the inside of my suitcase just like I hoped it would. However, the downside is that when trying to

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons

Overheating issues and cloning issues (3/3 units have issues)

Update 3: So I ordered 2 units (1 for me and one for someone else), my unit (unit 1) couldn't handle the basic cloning and caused a short circuit which messed up my computer a bit and they sent me a replacement unit 3, unit 2 still works so i bought my unit hoping to give my computer a little boost before the holidays although it was a bad experience . on 2 and mixed bad and normal on the last one. Block 1 burned out (due to motherboard/RAM issues after shorting itself out had to reapply the…

  • Quality construction
Cons
