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

I built my own gamer about six months ago but the standard 1tb M.2 ssd was rather poor in performance, it was the only thing slowing me down. I just installed this new 2TB ssd and it works noticeably better, plus a lot more storage space. On a side note, Ive been buying Silicon Powers SSDs for years and rarely had issues.

Delivered on time and with no damage to the Philippines. Ive used it for about a month now and have not noticed anything wrong with it. I use it as a secondary drive to store my games and some of my files. I couldnt tell the difference playing with my games on it (PCIE 3.0) vs my main NVME storage (PCIE 4.0). I hope it lasts a long time. One of the best deals I could find on a 2TB drive since the cheapest ones on the local and online stores here cost at least twice as much. This is cheaper than some high end (1TB only) PCIE 3.0 NVME drives here.

This is a good 1TB NVMe SSD. It has, of course, 1TB space and reads really fast, however, the write speeds vary from very fast to rather slow, depending on the test/bench marks. It is cheaper than the Samsung 970 EVO or WD Black NVMe SSD, but,..both of those perform better consistently at their rated read/write speeds. So, for about $20.00 more, Id go with the Samsung or WD Black for overall, consistent performance. Sorry Silicon Power. I got 2 of these on sale, (a really great deal) for my sons new laptop that came with a POS 128 GB, slug NVMe SSD, which btw, had 60 GB reserved for OS and bloatware. (REALLY..1/2 of the space was reserved and the partition was inaccessible for sizing. Sorry..off topic) So it was a great deal and they do function very well, just not consistently at the optimum rated write speed. I havent noticed any real lag or slowdowns due to this though, not yet, so I cant register a legitimate complaint about them. Overall, Im happy with the purchase and function/performance thus far.

This was a great price but it had one bad sector so it was no useable for cloning my original NVMe. I am hoping the longevity is not indicative of that.

Absolutely recommended, I know this is a Gen3 NVME but it’s perfect for old equipments (2021 and older), this drive its gen3 top performance for an excellent price

The pcie m.2 drive does not conform to the advertised specifications, read 3400 Mb/s and write 3000 Mb/s. Silicon Power replaced the Phison E12 controller with poor quality Realtek RTS5762 controller with a DDR3 DRAM buffer and inferior 3D TLC NAND memory chips were used. Poor performance can be seen in synthetic tests (look the images) but also during real use of the medium. The problem is that customers can be misled and receive a worse product than, for example, they read in older reviews. The situation could be saved by a clear distinction of the new revision. In such a situation, I recommend avoiding the Silicon Power carrier with a wide berth. When I ask Amazon for refund based on warranty they did 15% less of my initial payment. Also I did communicate with Silicon Power about my issue and I was really disappointed by the bad customer service based somewhere in South East Asia. Final tough, never buy again Silicon Power product.

Initially, this worked great, but after 4 months, I constantly got disk errors and blue screens. It would work for a while, but slowly data was being corrupted. I didnt realize it until random folders/files were inaccessible and my games would no longer work. My backups would not complete because it could not read the drive. Ran some tests on the drive and it would not complete because it was so bad. Good thing for the 5 year warranty.

I got one of these for my nephews computer I built him for Christmas 2019, as Id been curious. They have ultra fast read/write speeds, great pricing, and great storage capacity, so I went with it and I was not disappointed. The motherboard instantly recognized it as a hard drive, I installed Windows 10 and got his computer up and running playing games and having fun with no problems. It worked so well I figured Id get one for my own new computer this month, and once again its worked perfectly. I wholly recommend these, theyre faster than any other PCI-3 NVMes out there while also being cheaper than all of them at the 1TB storage size (Which, in my opinion, should be the default starting size of any computer system these days). Get yourself one!

Coming from a computer Technician that owns a Computer repair business this is worth every Penny! I have paid 3x this price for a 512GB SSD in the recent past! I have several other Silicone Power Products and have had good luck with all of them. I had a 60GB SSD that was a few years old die on me and I sent it off for replacement and got a brand new one in return less than 10days later! I recommend for its Speed, Reliability, and Ease of Use! As well as the Support if needed by Silicone Power! Great Buy dont pay $250 for the one from the big boys!

First nvme and my god have the prices come into reality. This kind of nvme was easily $500 about 2 years ago. Absolutely blazing fast, phenomenal price for the performance. Get one, in fact get two. Dont buy a heatsink, the label is actually a very well designed heat spreader. The memory likes to run hot while writing like 50-70C, while the controller likes to be cold. The controller heats up, which then spreads to the memory through the heatspreading label and helps to bring the memory temps up. Because lets be honest this thing wont be writing for more than a few seconds at a time. If you cool your memory and lets say it never gets above 40C while writing, youll be damaging your drives longevity writing below optimal temperatures. Dont bother even buying a heatsink with the thermal tape and cutting in so it only touches the controller because then the heat from the controller still wont be spreading to help bring the memory temps up from ambient to where they like to be. That little metal label is actually pure genius, very simple and keeps your drive healthy. The only time it would probably be worth to cool your nvme controller more aggressively is if youre writing 24/7 with it at which point the memory will heat up enough on its own and stay there over long periods and you can really crank down on the controller to keep it from throttling.
