Noice
Pros: Its my main drive with win10 pro. Boots up within 13 second with the BIOS being included. Game and files transfer at 2.8-3.1GBps on Read. Games don't load much quicker on a NVMe drive compared to a decent SSD but a second or two is a slight win.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: I will buy another for a new system. Having one drive vs a SSD + 1-4 HDDs/SSDs is a nice change.
Okay
Pros: Nothing too good or bad about it. The build is alright, fan placement is okay
Cons: Overall airflow is hit or miss depending on the heat being put out.
Overall Review: Good for lighter builds.
decent for the price
Pros: gets me by in old emulator games.
Cons: none
Overall Review: get it or dont?
Okay
Pros: good quality
Cons: Hard to build in if you are not careful with what you get to put into it.
Overall Review: Get it, or dont.
Short Life
Pros: The AM1 socket had a short life and with good reason. The board did fine but why wouldn't it with such low powered chips. Played Return of Reckoning on it. (5350APU)
Cons: none
Overall Review: not much to say, a dead socket when it was born.
Great
Pros: I use this to slap in some old 3.5" drives to keep backups of family photos and other docs to put into cold storage. Its gone through at least 10 hard drives now.
Cons: none
Overall Review: They're worth it if you need it.
Quick, Accurate and good condition
Came really quick and the board I received was in great condition as described in the listing.
