SABRENT Rocket Q 1TB NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 Internal SSD High Performance Solid State Drive R/W 3200/2000MB/s (SB-RKTQ-1TB)

Very solid SSD running windows 10 and none raid set up. I picked these up in January 2020 then a second in June 2020 for $114 usd then $270 3 months later. Price tends to fluctuate a lot. As for the games I am the first to load into games like tarkov and squad with a fair bit of ram to load files from. I recommend these to my friends but I would wait for a price drop as pre covid they where best bang for your buck. Easy to install and pick up mounting items, my mother board did not come with mounting screws so I had to order a kit for 6 bucks here on Amazon. Would suggest saving a pair of chop sticks for the install to not worry about static discharges. Or hemostat forceps work great aswell I just have rubber gloves I rock when I use metal around my rig.

I cant complain about the Terabytes Write, very little of the capacity has been used so far. There are drives that can have longer life if you need to overwrite them several times for not much more money. I cant complain about how well this has worked though.

I purchased this after doing some price to performance comparisons. I Purchased it for my 17 inch gaming laptop which came with a 512gb Samsung nvme Drive ,a 2.5 SATA storage space and a spare nvme slot. I download and play a lot of games from my steam library and needed more storage. It arrived with no issues, packaging and presentation was spot on. With the metal casing, I really felt like I received a premium product and performance backs that up! Super easy to install and had it installed and formatted in literally 3 minutes (most of which was just putting my laptop base back on). Once I rebooted, I needed to transfer a 40gb game onto it from my Samsung drive and it only took 30 seconds! I was blown away! Loads games up at lightning speed and also allows my steam game downloads to complete faster since the games download and install simultaneously. I have not had to use the cloning software since this was just being used for additional storage and still booting OS from Samsung nvme but it’s nice to know that I can use that if I get one for my other gameing desktop PC. This drive is high end and makes me feel comfortable about being ready for the next gen of PC games as PS5 and series x are touting use of nvme storage for games! Highly recommend you get one or more of these for your laptop or next pc build

After much research, found this product to be the most promising for capacity (8TB) and speed. Put it in a Thunderbolt 3 enclosure and started copying my data files to it. After 10 mins it overheated and shut down and lost connection to my Mac. Waited 30 mins for it to cool and same thing happened again. Turns out this is a common issue with NVME drives. They can’t handle sustained writes at high speeds. But further research revealed the problem was in the Thunderbolt 3 chipset used in the enclosure. After switching to a Sabrent enclosure, all is good. I’m getting great performance and no overheating.

I have no issues with it... it was easy to install, fast as well. I have install practically all my games on it and no regrets. Load times are within 1-2 seconds max and in some cases non-existent (esp. in free-roam games). Im sure that when windows 11 comes out with Direct Storage it will be even faster with load times BUT for now its great and I got no complaints so far.

I bought this 8T hard disk together with Sabrent PCI Card convert in my dell 5820. It works well at the beginning much quick than other Disk I have. I put SQL Server data file in this drive. I constantly load data into it from last Saturday. It failed on Thursday when I try to create multiple index on a 30B rows table. It failed to access sql server master files in the drive and log file folder. It failed to recognize the disk during the restart right after it. Luckily, I get this disk back after 2 hour shutdown. As of Oct 20 2022, it works fine. It failed one more time when we are doing query which requests lots lots of reads. It will back if rest for a while. Will keep update if I get similar error late and decide to return it.

This is my second Sabrent drive. Its definitely an affordable option for NVMe. Between my two versions of Sabrent NVMes, both have one scale of speeds that are off whats advertised. My blue one has slower read speeds than claimed, this unit (white) has slower write speeds than claimed. But this white one actually reads a bit faster than advertised. Overall Im happy my first one hasnt crapped out on me in 1.5yrs. For the price and the performance, Id say its hard to beat.

I just brought the MSI GS66 2070 Max Q laptop with 1TB of storage. I wanted to add another 1TB due to my vast library of games from Steam, Epic, and Oculus. I was looking for a fast NVMe as well. The price on this NVMe was great and boy is this as fast as advertised. Item came wrapped in a nice small aluminum box and well package. Everything screamed quality. Its been inside my laptop now for 2 weeks and it is working perfectly. No issues with installation or formatting the drive. Well worth the price, which I thought was a great value. I would purchase from them again.

Cant recommend this very affordable and capable NVMe drive enough. I bought this (and the Sintech NGFF M.2 NVMe adapter ($17) to add more storage space and performance to my old early-2015 11-inch MacBook Air. Mercifully, this model supports PCIe x4, so with a new NVMe drive, I was able to see an immediate improvement in performance. I also vastly expanded storage space (128GB to 1 TB). The upgrade was trivial and done in less than 10 minutes. It took longer to clone the drive than it did to physically install it. As you can see in the screenshot from System Report - the NVMExpress interface supports a width of x4 - as confirmed by the Disk Speed Test app. If youre looking to extend the life of your computers, this is definitely a consideration. Good luck!

This being the first nvme ssd Im using, installing was tougher than I expected. That meaning, I had to work with my mobo company to get the screw to secure it since the drive didnt come with one. Unfortunate for both companies to assume the other would deliver it. Once I got the screw it was very easy to install and work with. I feel a mild gain vs my prior 2.5ssd. I wish I thought about the blue face on this drive since it doesnt quite match my case look but its fine enough.
