Blazing Fast! 9/21/2020 9:27:56 PM

Pros: Huge improvement for in-game boot/load times! Totally changed the game experience in Warhammer II after transferring from a spinning rust drive.
Feels incredibly snappy.

Overall Review: Awesome speed, though I had to enable a setting in the mobo bios to see the drive. Once I did that everything worked like a charm. Highly recommend!

Amazing speed to load my OS and other programs 9/21/2020 4:47:32 PM

Overall Review: Amazing how they put so much memory into such a small chip. My system loads programs real fast and I love it for the price. Plus it is western digital and it is going to last a life time.

good product but my bank do not like you 9/21/2020 10:02:06 AM

Pros: Great product and fast delivery. The Discord group was also really helpful in finding the right product for my needs.

Cons: As soon as I tried to order, my bank blocked the transaction and my card from further purchase. This only happened to me when a site or business had previous problems with identity theft or stolen credit card info. It's not reassuring to know that maybe my card info is not safe with Newegg.

Overall Review: I would probably order again but feel weird knowing that I'm doing it "at my own risks".

Horrible product! Do not buy. 9/19/2020 5:01:21 PM

Pros: -None

Cons: Once I plugged in the brand new ssd with nothing on it into the m.2 slot of my motherboard (I verified that it is compatible with my motherboard), the system would not post, no matter what I tried. I had bought this ssd to migrate my os over to it from my hard drive. If it was plugged it, the pc would not boot into windows off the hard drive, nor would it even let me get into the bios. Once I removed it, I tried again, and this time, the system booted into windows (from the hard drive) just fine. Do not buy, will not even let your system post!

Overall Review: -0/10, do not recommend
-would never buy this again!

It works as advertised 9/16/2020 7:49:37 AM

Pros: Using a PCIe 3.0 X 4 adaptor card, I use this storage capability as a backup up, replacing an external hard drive, for the M2 drive on the motherboard. Setup and installation were a breeze. Went to Disk Management, found the drive, partitioned and formatted it and presto, it was ready to go.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: I am not a super gamer so I have no reservations about the product. Recommended.
