Pros: If you enable the fast boot in your BIOS this thing is nearly instant! I have these running in all of my Gen 4.0 PCI Express systems and have had zero issues... with the drive.

Cons: My last Newegg order was fulfilled by a company called ESSIEYOUNG ELECTRONICS. It arrive very quickly... incorrect labels, in a Yellow Bubble Bag Bag from another, smiling, retailer, with a small white, thin, plastic bag inside that contained (1) Single, Twisted Black Hair Tie. <-- NOT a M.2 SSD Drive. I tried to leave a comment on the ESSIEYOUNG ELECTRONICS "Shop" area but they seem to have that feature disabled... can't imagine why? I have requested a full refund, uploaded images of the package, tracking and everything... I may need to amend this entry should they fix this issue... But I digress... The DRIVE ( AWESOME!!! ) The company I bought it from... not so much. ESSIEYOUNG ELECTRONICS (X) ESSIEYOUNG ELECTRONICS (X) ESSIEYOUNG ELECTRONICS (X) Fulfilled by Newegg from now on. They should remove this seller from their offerings... jut

Overall Review: Again.. Excellent drive... used these many times. Great for the price at any size. 500gb, 1tb, 2,tb never used anything larger than 2tb though.

Pros: I have used this board on several builds now, for myself and for a couple friends. It has all of the features you want without all of the fluff you find on other ones. It has allowed for some modest OC's but I have decided to let the Ryzen Master & Curve Optimizer do it's thing. *Cost to Performance! All the features you need without the fluff. *Great entry into the Mini-ITX world. *Very Clean and well organized board. *Intuitive for new and experienced builders. ASRock B550M-ITX/AC AM4 Ryzen 5700G 1tb Western Digital 850 Corsair Vengeance, DDR4 3600 Fractal Node 202 Case EVGA 750 SLX 2x Noctua 120mm fans (will install a dedicated GPU eventually... or not) The current onboard graphics are keeping up with most of the titles I play from the 360 & One days. Streams excellent and temps are very well managed.

Cons: Lacks some of the fluff... but otherwise, none so far. Would like to see a better IO shield, not just the basic silver stamped metal... but that normally comes with higher priced builds (and sometimes not) and would decrease from the value of THIS board by raising the costs associated with production. A little rattle-can goes a long way, black or white, thank you very much!

Overall Review: There is a good reason this board is often over sold, out of stock and basically always in high demand... AND it isn't just because of the price... or the global situation. Great board for your first ITX build or your thousandth. Budget builds will appreciate the cost and bigger builds should appreciate that this is full of features at a lower cost... meaning you can upgrade your CPU or RAM... or upgrade from that 3060 to a 3070... or whatever. Happy building!

Ordered this item, excellent drive at an excellent price... however when it arrive... and it did, very fast... it arrived in a Yellow, "smiling" Retailer package, that contained a thin, white, plastic bag and inside of that... (1) Single, Twisted Black Hair Tie... NOT my Western Digital WD BLACK SN850 NVMe M.2 2280 1TB PCI-Express 4.0 x4 3D NAND Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) WDS100T1X0E. The thin... white, plastic bag has a sticker on it that reads the correct item... but this item, even if purchased in bulk, come is a clear plastic clamshell... full retail version, which I purchased comes in a black box that contains a clamshell... NEVER in a thin, white, plastic bag. In Summary... Never order from Essieyoung Electronics. Newegg Fulfillment or a reputable seller with an open comment section and at least 90% positive reviews.
