very fast
I've been using it for a while now, but it's a good idea to keep it in mind when you're using it.

SSD very good but the Acronis cloning software gave me problems
I had a 250GB toshiba ssd with a 238GB C partition and a 15GB D recovery. Acronis partitioned the new 500GB ssd into a 238GB C partition and a 250GB D recovery. After 2 hours of exploring the software to change this, I decided to accept this partitioning of my new hard disk. Finally then thanks to AOMEI partition manager (free) I was able to create a C partition of 450 GB and a D of 15 GB without losing my data. I notice that my new disk is faster than the old one

SSD impossible to create partitions
SSD installed and detected by the bios. Can't partition when I run my windows 10 usb stick. So, installed windows on HDD temporarily to create partitions on the SSD and then switched back to windows on the nvme SSD in M.2. I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea. Can't partition, cyclic redundancy message and write protected every time. I'm up to 8 hours of wasted time and I have a 1200€ gamer PC running on an HDD. Pitiful. I'm going to return the article and buy a Sata SSD I think. I've searched the internet, but it doesn't seem to be possible. I'm completely disgusted. I should have taken a normal SSD, I've been looking forward to assembling this PC for a month now, nothing is working on the SSD side.

This product is compliant, it "runs" fast and well and is not expensive!

Good product.
Mounted on asrock Z390 phantom gaming 4 motherboard. Easy installation and instant system recognition. W10 installation on new pc. Taken for the reputation of the brand. One star less for the price too high compared to the competition.
