Purchased for use as a PC imaging boot disk. Unfortunately, the read/write speed is too slow for this use. The reading speed is around 42 MB/s and the writing speed is around 43 MB/s. (Image attached) The form factor is really good and I like the capless design, but an external M.2 drive should be MUCH faster. I have normal USB3 flash drives that can destroy them with the highest copy speed. I am posting a photo of the speed test results. I have tested the drive on 2 desktops and a laptop, this is not a problem on my end, it is definitely the fault of the drive.
