Kingston 2048G KC3000 PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD

No issues with the product, just wish I got more storage. If anyone’s looking to get an M.2 or any type of storage for that matter, do yourself a favor and get at least 1TB

Its not the fastest SSD on the market but the performance/price ratio is superb. Im getting 7000MB/s+ read on a single drive and doubled to 14000MB/s on RAID0 setup. Q1T1 is decent as well. Benched from 12700K Z690/DDR5 system.

great product

It has a great write and read speed. Very recommended.

I purchased this in Feb of 2022. As a longtime Samsung user, I was taking a big risk by changing brands in order to gain what ostensibly was equivalent lifespan and better performance. I was nervous because a family member had previously purchased a Kingston SSD and had it fail. My build was plagued with random pauses from the get-go, but I didnt use it frequently enough to diagnose it. In hindsight that was obviously an SSD issue. 13 months after purchase, windows crashed. After a hard reboot, the SMART data that the BIOS is seeing is telling me the drive is toast. It wont boot at all now. Lesson learned: stick to Samsung. This drive is a steaming pile waiting to die after you put important data on it.

It works no issues so far

Probably fastest ssd as of today

Seemed OK at first but after 6 months Windows 11 kept claiming its files were corrupt, then it started leaking a black oil like substance and I got FATAL power events in Windows. The third time I re-installed Windows 11 and Linux on it, I realized it was this KC3000 causing the problems. It lasted 10 months but has been somehow damaged since month 5. Back to WD_Black!! DO NOT TOUCH THESE DRIVES! All my pals who bought these in February 2022 have had the same experience with these KC3000 1TB drives.
