addlinkS68 1TB M.2 PCIe Gen3 NVMe Internal SSD - Up to Read 2,100 MB/s, Write 1,700 MB/s - 3D TLC NAND M.2 2280 Internal Solid State Drive (auk1TBS68M2P)

Before I begin: It's (very x 3200) good, it's worth it, arrived quick. - Now onto the review.I didn't know about NVMe drives until I ended up mid-amazon browse and noticed this "ludicrous" speed hard drive thing.I checked my motherboard and noticed it has two slots for these.Being moderately skeptical, I checked out some of the reviews and apparently this is the real deal.Thus - I bought one and... Well... This is the process:I stuck this magical stick into my computer (on my motherboard the top slots for these has a "thermal guard")I then proceeded to clone my windows hard drive into this magical stick (there are tools for this online)Then I rebooted my PC and set this magical stick as my boot drive.In 3 seconds after restart I was already on my desktopIn 10 seconds I was already in-game.The speed of these things is staggering!!!P.S. If your motherboard supports NVMe Raid 0 - you can link up these monstrosities to run at twice the speed! I don't know what horrifying monstrosity of an operating system you need to require that speed, but there we go - it is an option.Other things to note: There are different sockets for these NVMe drives, so be careful and ensure you purchase the correct one.

I couldn't find any tech site/channel reviews of the 2TB Addlink S70 so thought i'd post some performance numbers for those interested. My DiskMark results are from version 7, while most other results posted here are from the dated version 5, so they can't really be compared. Generally, the higher the capacity that an SSD is, the better the performance, and that's true here with 2TB.This is a cheaper NVMe SSD's from a company that most people haven't heard of, and yet you're getting a drive that easily matches the VERY fastest and more expensive competitors in real world tests. Don't bother with PCIe 4.0 drives, they might have better synthetic benchmark numbers, but there's no real world benefit from them yet. This Addlink drive has some of the best real world performance you'll get right now when it comes to games/software/everyday tasks.I've had no issues with this drive so far and i've been running it through its paces with tests/benchmarks. installation was easy, same as any other NVMe drive. Highly recommended.

As a first effort at upgrading my PC, it couldn't have been more simple. Fitted to motherboard, cloned OS across, old hard drive formatted to be for storage, it's all out there in YouTube land.The difference between this M.2 SSD and my HDD disk is night and day, literally. From a cold start I'm on Windows in under 10 seconds, on my favourite game 10 seconds after that. Brilliant bit of kit, cheaper than the big names, stable and fast. I now have 1TB of storage HDD and 1TB of M. 2 SSD for windows and games and anything else. Just do it.

I made the mistake of putting a regular HDD in my new computer rig which has an i9-10920X CPU and wondered why my computer was behaving so painfully slow. (Boot up took nearly 30-45 minutes!)Did a bit of research and discovered these SSD M2.0 chips and found they fit my ASUS ROG X-299E motherboard.Purchased this one after a bit of shopping and put a fresh install of Windows 10 on it and WOW!! what a difference. My computer now only takes a matter of seconds to boot up and get into desktop. All applications and games load up within a mouse-click and everything is running faster and smoother.Here I thought RAM and CPU were the two things that make the computer faster and this little chip has proved me wrong.Phenomenal.

This product was easy to install, however all M.2 SSDs are... I felt somewhat of a difference changing from HDD to SSD however it wasnt so imensely faster than I was falling off my chair, it was noticeably faster but not by much, however I dont really mind. Still nice to have.

1st thing is I got this for £104 and this was the 1tb versionWhy to buy.I have benched this card and it does indeed get the speeds it advices. This is one reason to but but I did some research on the card and I think I know why it's cheaper and this has something to do with how much data it will move at full speed before slowing down to 1gbpsThe Samsung will move 70gbps before slowing but what files are you moving to be 70gbs or more.This card I believe does 20gb before slowing down but this is still very very good as I have not hit the wall Yet.You need to have two m.2 to make use of the data transfer really, There are other ways to max this out but if yourgaming opening file or editingyou should be fine unless your pro you may need something more but as I said unless your working with 20gbs plus at a time then you won't get full speedI pass this card on value and speed but one thing I need to say is if you buy this and don't know what your doing the instructions it comes with could be better for people who don't upgrade machinesIf you are this person look up online of take it to a shop to fit to insure it's fitted correctly.

There's not much I can say about this M.2 NVME SSD, apart from that it is excellent - both in terms of performance, as well as in terms of price. I can't fault it.I've just used it in a new build, and it is truly amazing. I'd never used addlink previous, so it was a bit of a risk - but I've had good experiences with "no-name" brands out of China in the past - such as Drevo and the like - and so I thought, lets give this a go - with Amazon's excellent returns policy if it was a dud, then I could quite easily return it for a refund/replacement, so the risk was mitigated.Thankfully, I was not disappointed at all, and the drive is excellent - it performs on par with far more expensive units - and does give me the advertised speeds - 3500 read and 3400 write - multiple times on multiple tests.So yes, highly recommended.
