Silicon Power 2TB NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen3x4 2280 SSD R/W up to 3,400/3,000MB/s (SU002TBP34A80M28AB)

Popped it into an Eluktronics W650KKL (a Clevo laptop), it was recognized and worked well on Windows for a few days until the laptop would blue screen during gaming or just normal use. It came with a 5-year warranty which I did not take the chance to make good on so Im not sure whether to recommend against the product or not. My bet is that its not worth it. Look elsewhere.

Like the price the Read speed is good 544 mb/s the write is a little slow in the 300 mb/s. I worry the life is going to be much shorter than my Western Digital SSD 500 sata.

So I purchased this NVMe SSD back in October with the original plan of upgrading my Acer Nitro 5s stock Intel NVMe SSD. Well, at the time work was pretty hectic and didnt have the time for a clean install. I prefer clean installs when possible just to get the absolute most out of an upgrade like this. Now that Ive gotten home from assignment and things have cooled off I decided to finally dig in. Backed up bookmarks, passwords and files. Ready to rock. I had no idea this thing would be so much faster and just really wanted the space increase from 256 to 512. The pictures tell the tale. 1500 to 3200MB/s Read & 450 to 2200 Write! Thats 2x the Read speed and 4x the writes for 59 dollars! Wow! SSD & Ram prices are supposed to go up this year so upgrade while you can guys! Boot & shutdown times were noticeably improved. Take a look at the Random 4K speeds. Effectively 4x faster than before. Programs though opened fast before seem to open even faster now. Honestly, Im very impressed by the upgrade. Heat is def something to be aware of as the increase in tempis noticeable. In my Acer I can clearly feel it heating up the bottom of the machine more than the old unit did. Dont worry about reliability as NVMe drives thrive in heat and this isnt something to be worried about. Temps only spike under heavy or sustained work loads but quickly drop to around 29c while idle or during light loads. So again, its not defective just a byproduct of NVMe drives. Ive got WD, Crucial, PNY NVMes in various other systems and they all run hot. So again dont worry about it. So overall... Im happy with this upgrade and look forward to putting this thing to work.

Installed the Silicon Power NVMe SSD on a Dell Inspiron 3180 Laptop to replace the 32GB eMMC. The budget laptop recognize the SSD immediately. I was able to install Windows 10 on it. Great product for such upgrade.

I bought this to put in my iMac 27 2017 and put it in a NVMe USB C Thunderbolt adapter to transfer the files via migration. HOLY COW even externally my MacOS runs insanely faster than it did on my Fusion set up that came in it. So fast and with no lagging that Ive been too lazy to attempt a proper 4hr long installation. lol. Im moving huge video files around with no lagging or anything so... idk if I am even going to put it inside the machine now. lol. Itd sure be easier to resell the imac in a couple years if I dont pop it open and leave in the stock stuff (and not void my AppleCare). Anywho. GO FOR IT! This gets speeds of 2000+/1300+ R/W EXTERNALLY via USB-C with the OS also running on it when testing. lol.

Was very easy to install if you got the new m/b with m.2 socket. Getting rid of unnecessary cables. So far, this has worked great and I even benchmark to see if the claim of its reading and writing were true, sure enough it was. However, my overall score reflected it from my previous use of SSD HD and I thought this would make a bit of difference as SSD did for me from mechanical HD. But nope, barely noticed any speed difference, however, the convenience of not having to hook up wires and make your internal looks of your computer ugly, I would buy this again for another build.

I got this NVMe drive for a budget PC build and it did not disappoint. Its super affordable for the capacity and is great as an OS drive and programs if you dont need to take advantage of PCIe 4.0 or 5.0 speeds as it its PCIe 3.0. That its super inexpensive (at the time of this review) and has DRAM cache is fantastic! Would absolutely buy again for another PC build.

I purchased a new, loaded, 2017 iMac at a **great** discount when the 2019 models were introduced. The only thing I didnt like was the speed of the internal 2TB Fusion drive. So I bought this 2TB drive, a Sonnet Echo Express SEL Thunderbolt 3-to-PCIe Expansion Chassis (low profile) and StarTech.com M2 PCIe SSD Adapter (x4 PCIe 3.0 NVMe). I mounted the SSD on the StarTech card, installed the card in the Sonnet chassis, and it was all recognized immediately by the Mac. It took a little while to copy the entire fusion drive to the external drive using the MacOS Disk Utility RESTORE function, but once it was complete it was a totally bootable external drive. I then simply destroyed the fusion configuration and now have those drives available for additional internal storage. I assume that Im not getting 100% of the theoretical speed of the drive due to the Thunderbolt 3 installation, but it is meeting all the requirements to pass all of the BlackMagic 4K video editing speed test requirements. (see photo) Im a very happy camper.

This is my 4th SP SSD. They work well, they work fast. No complaints when used for desktop computers. Highly recommended product. Update 5/15/2021: After purchasing a total of 9 SP storage products a total of 2 have prematurely failed. The first one worked erratically out of the box and ultimately failed after 1 month of usage. The second failure happened after installing windows 10 on a computer and storing it for about 1 year. When the laptop was taken out of storage it would not boot. The culprit was the SP SSD. The other SDDs I purchased are still working great. I think I got hit with two cases of infant mortality. I will update again if I get any more failures.

What an incredible difference this HDD made to my computer! WOW, from a slow old dog with a 720rpm HDD to a swift gazelle. No task causes slow downs anymore. Computer now handles Photoshop easily and seamlessly cuts through any task. Boot up time decreased from about 3mins to under 30 seconds. Very very happy, Upgrading was very simple and even the HDD cloning process was simple and error free with a free online utility. Whole process from opening up the desktop tower to plugging all the cables back in with a fully refreshed and cloned HDD was about 60-90mins. Awesome
