So far so good

Used as a buffer in a NAS, it has so far fulfilled its mission of speed and reliability perfectly.

Move on

It's never been a thunderbolt, but it quickly started to show signs of weakness (the famous problem where Windows freezes at 100% disk usage, but doesn't write anything to it), and completely froze my computer for several minutes. Surprise, when I gave it a SMART test, it was completely cooked, after 2,660 hours of use (111 continuous days), 1.5 years after purchase: 45% available spare, 610,293,648 integrity errors. What's more, it's heating up.

        Very disappointed

        Installed yesterday on my computer. 1st use today. This nvme SSD heats up enormously. Not even 1 hour of use, the slab of my computer is very hot. I didn't have this problem with the original SSD. I
        I'm going to have to uninstall everything, start all over again and reconfigure everything ......
        Thank you for suggesting a solution.
        Have a nice day!

        Excellent product

        Does the job.
        Good value for money
        The SSD gives 480GB under Windows 11 and 500GB under Linux. So it meets my expectations.

        Good value for money

        I have fond memories of a Kingston 250GB sata3 SSD that I've transferred from one device to another (PC and PlayStation 3) several times without it ever showing any signs of weakness. This M.2 seems to be following the same path so far in my mini-itx configuration on an Asrock motherboard. And for a cheap gigabyte.

        Top, but no spare screw

        The SSD is great.
        I'm just sorry that it doesn't come with 'standard' screws, just in case: if you lose the one on the motherboard, you don't have a spare.
        A word of advice if you're hesitating between 500GB and 1TB: go for 1TB, these little beasts fill up quickly.

        Good advice, a sale

        Question asked, solution given, product recommended and really it was ideal easy installation and no complicated handling to install.

        SSD Correct

        It installs very easily and is quite fast.
        I haven't done a speed test, but Windows 10 starts up in 4/5 seconds...
        But you'll need a watchmaker's Phillips screwdriver, because the screw that holds it in is very small.

        disk

        The drive works without any problem with the ASUS ExpertCenter PN52-BBR556HD under Ubuntu.
        The installation is easy, but delicate.
