Everything is fine, there are only minor drawbacks.

The ssd is not 500gb, but 465gb Crystal Mark speeds are as follows: 2300 MB / s read, 2500 MB / s write. So, the manufacturer did not deceive partly. Also along with the ssd comes an activation key for Acronis True Image Different pros: The 2022 Post sent the parcel on time, which was a pleasant surprise. Cons: It was unpleasantly surprising that amazon canceled 3 free deliveries per month (but if you order from 4999, you can use free delivery from the 2022 Post) Also, this ssd on amazon is…

A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

Got pros: Posted an hour ago. Installed and set up with no problems. The real capacity is 466 Gb, which is understandable. I installed it by sticking on a 5 mm thermal pad, which is glued directly to the motherboard. This is how my first M2 was set up at the factory. Notebook MSI GL66. The tested Kingston is absolutely empty and the CDM results are on the first photo (black background). Well, it will be interesting to supplement this review with an M.2 disk test, which MSI puts on a laptop for

Not perfect quality, there is a small defect.

As an additional drive, it works for me, but not as a bootable one. Pros below: High speed via pci-e bus, compact format, can be used in an adapter. Has cons: Not compatible to boot the operating system from it on my computer.

I'm very happy with the product, it's very satisfying.

I put in a laptop MSI Pulse GL76 11UEK-081XRU (9S7-17L122-081) gray if anything. P. S on the second screen, the test is already factory ssd if anyone is interested.

Pros
  • Slick as advertised.
Cons
  • I haven't measured the temperature yet, but I think everything is within the normal range.

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

I chose my first SSD on m.2 NVME: the choice was between this and Samsung 980. I was not disappointed with the purchase, the price still played a role in the choice. With a radiator above 50 degrees in the tests, the temperature did not rise. It was lucky that the motherboard had a heatsink. At idle 30-33 degrees. Failed to clone a system from a regular Sata SSD to this one with a licensed Acronis. The key activated normally, but the disk did not want to be cloned at all. As a result, I…

Pros
  • - Meets specifications - Acceptable price / quality - DRAM buffer
Cons
  • - As for me, weak software for SSD Kingston, WD and Samsung provide more functionality for their media

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

I didn’t pay much attention to speed benchmarks, since if everything is done correctly and what technology is used (TLC / QLC) is known, then there shouldn’t be any special surprises. Reputable manufacturer with warranty. A good declared read / write resource is 300 TBW, although probably 150 would be enough without problems. For example, on my old sata ssd, for 3 years of not particularly sparing use (OS reinstallation, use for recording with nvidia shadowplay, a large swap partition for…

Pros
  • good speed, adequate price for TLC, well-known manufacturer, cache, good declared TBW resource, code for Acronis to clone an old disk
Cons
  • so far nothing

Great value for the money, definitely recommended!

INITIALLY I ran into a rather strange problem: I installed the SSD in the computer, turned it on, the read / write speed in the tests and was actually limited to about 850MB / s, after a reboot everything returned to normal, but if you turn off the computer again and turn it on, the speed will be limited, and after a reboot it returns to normal , the situation does not change whether the system is loaded from this disk or not. Also, the speed dropped after exiting sleep mode. SOLUTION OF THE…

Pros
  • The speed in the tests is fully consistent with the declared. The temperature stays around 45 degrees in everyday use, although the location of the M2 slot on the motherboard is not exactly conducive to cooling.
Cons
  • Not revealed yet.
