SABRENT 2TB Rocket Q4 NVMe PCIe 4.0 M.2 2280 Internal SSD Maximum Performance Solid State Drive R/W 4800/3600 MB/s (SB-RKTQ4-2TB)

I installed this drive as my c: drive in a new build on a ASUS Prime TRX40 board with an AMD 3960X, along with a WD 1TB PCIE 3.0 stick as my d: drive. Windows installed fine but about 70% of the time, when I tried to boot, I would get a “no boot drive” error message. I tried clearing the CMOS, updating the BIOS, reseated the devices in their m.2 slot, but was still getting this weird inconsistent behavior. I thought maybe there was some weird hardware incompatibility issues or BIOS settings issue, so I did some internet searching and saw that many other people had the same issue with this Savrent nvme stick. I tried all of the Internet guidance, as did other people, tweaking and changing various UEFI and OS settings in the BIOS without success. To be clear, the BIOS recognizes the drive and will boot from the drive if I boot it from the boot menu of the BIOS, it just would not boot from it upon normal power up. The only solution was to replace the Sabrent drive per the Internet, so it seems that there is a significant percentage of subpar products that might pass Sabrent internal QC systems but exhibit this weird behavior, that is resolved with just getting a replacement. As a last resort, I wiped out both drives and reinstalled windows from from scratch with only the Sabrent. That solved it, but it still doesn’t explain the wonky drive detection in the bios.

Sigo encantado con la marca, son productos muy buenos

Really satisfied with the performance. Speeds are as advertised. The Acronis software thats available on the site made migrating my OS to this new drive pretty much effortless.

I havent been using this for any significant amount of time, but I know some people who have, and they too appreciate Sabrents M.2s. I had no issues in setting up and formatting the drive, and speeds appear to be as stated. I use it for games, and its even faster than my other M.2 drive, which it should be, so thats good. Without benchmarking it, Im quite happy with it. For people new to M.2s, just make sure to read the directions and, before you buy anything, make sure all the specs match up with your motherboards specs. Do keep in mind that all drives measure their storage space more like metric and less like base 2. Thats computer science talk for It will show as less on your PC than what it says on the page. This is perfectly normal, its not missing, its not defective. For example, this one will read as approximately 1.81 TB, and this is as expected and correct.

I have had another Sabrent Rocket SSD that after one year was at 55% health. I was afraid of losing data, so I bought this state of the art one. Oh, my surprise! After one month installed and less than that using it is already going down. I thought that being an American company producing in China would have some better quality than a simply Chinese company: illusion! My Samsung EVO has more than one year and a half of full working and its health is still 100%.

Just one complain is cooling. If it is in use, can easily go to 62-64F and will start to work slow after, so it you need it for serious workload and you dont have separated cooling solution it is not a best choice. But if it is just to store some data that you not gonna use all the time with a lot read/writes - it is great

Love it. Fast and reliable.

Simply amazing. This drive is a example of how fast technology is advancing.

The access speed is quite fast, including cost effective.

I had the drive less than 18 months. The other day it died and is out of warranty best I can tell. Sabrent is sending me a new replacement. From what I have read and heard, the early 4tb pcie 4 m.2 had some heating issues but that has been corrected.
