Boots Windows in seconds, no cables. All I could ask for. Boots Windows in seconds, no cables. All I could ask for.

I purchased this drive around 6 months ago to use in my ryzen 3700x build. It worked fine for the first month but then started giving me consistent BSOD errors relating to the NVME driver stornvme.sys. After doing some research this appears to be a common issue with this drive in systems like mine. The drive still works like usual when the system boots however. Suffice to say I will be returning it but I would warn against this drive with Ryzen 3000 series processors I purchased this drive around 6 months ago to use in my ryzen 3700x build.

Works just like they're supposed to! Added a couple of my Synology NAS to work as cache. Works just like they're supposed to! Added a couple of my Synology NAS to work as cache.

Amazing notebook upgrade. Amazing notebook upgrade.

Bought as part of a upgrade for grandparents PC, excellent performance for a very respectable price. Just remember to overprovision 10% capacity for redundancy.

I've only had a few hours on my rebuilt PC, but this is my first experience with an M.2 NVMe SSD and I'm really impressed so far. I'm using the pc 50/50 gaming and Adobe stuff, and I'm the sort of person who only installs games I'll play right then, if that makes sense - so 250GB is more than enough to cover Adobe's stupidly large software, Radeon and Razer software and my primary games.

CON: (please note I did not install this; but this is what I was told when the person who did, went to install it) this will be obvious to those experienced in pc building, but it doesn't actually state here, or anywhere online the fact that it does not come with the screw required to secure it. These screws tend to come with a motherboard, which is inconvenient if you're not also upgrading that at the same time...

Haven't had any issues with it, does what it says on the box. OS and game load times are super responsive and fast. Haven't had any issues with it, does what it says on the box. OS and game load times are super responsive and fast.
