I bought this product to mount on an ASRock Steel Legend B560 motherboard and to install my OS on it. The speed is very satisfactory, compared to a regular SSD.
I changed a 250GB SDD for this WD blue SN570 500GB SSD on my DELL XPS-8930 PC.
It was very easy: I cloned my old drive to the new one with the AOMEI software and then installed the new SDD on the PC. This allowed me to start straight away without reinstalling everything. It took about 1h30/2h maximum to do everything: cloning and hardware installation. Of course, to do this, I had to buy a small case for the SSD with a USB plug. I will use this box for the old SSD.
