5.0 out of 5 stars Exceptional speed, exceptional price for entry level gaming. Plus pretty colors.
Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2021
I recently purchase a gaming system, and was enthralled with the speed of the SSD drive on my new computer, but then, I discovered that the SSD drive is as slow as molasses compared to an NVMe SSD. Now this is probably an economic entry level SSD, but this incredibly small, and seemingly insignificant miniature device has made a VERY significant boost to my computer speed and my happiness. The added bonus is the even more insignificant RGB LED color change (which does absolutely nothing to improve speed, is controllable by most compatible - newer motherboards). The low price really makes this speed well worth it. I'm 6ft.-1in. and I have very big hands, i highly recommend a magnetic tip screw driver, and antistatic gloves when you install this device.

Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2019
Mind you, this was the first time that I've ever held a pcie m.2 ssd. I don't know why. But I expected it to be larger. I suppose that good things come in small packages. That aside, it installed easily onto my mobo, and is ridiculously fast. It has sequential write speeds of 1,014mbps and sequential read speeds of 1,568mbps. It is my system drive and boots windows 10 in 10 seconds, literally. Yes I timed it. It's also excellent in use with my data heavy applications and games. Adobe CS is lightning fast on this tiny ssd. The icing on the cake is that the rgb looks sweet and it synchronizes seamlessly with ASUS Aura.
