Pros: Price and warranty are the big plusses.
Cons: Not all that fast. fastest speeds are at 64MB. 431 write / 510 read but only 394 / 459 on the standard 1 MB test. My M.2 Crucial is much faster getting 490+ write and 520+ reads.
Overall Review: For the cost you can't go wrong. does not come with screw so make sure you have one.
