Greater than one weekThis product will be worth the buy for a med-level gaming laptop. I understand some folks will say something different. I like it.

> 3 dayThe P41 NVMe ssd is performing faster than MFG states. Running an Intel 12700k, Gigabyte Gaming X, 64GB ram. No issues so far. CrystalDiskMark image provided, first test, installed as a secondary drive. Also an FYI: other reviews removing a star for no M.2 screw provided. SSD mfgs dont provide the screw. Its the motherboard mfgs that provide it. Ive bought from Samsung, Kingston, Sabrent, Crucial and smaller name brands and none of them have provided me with the screw. Check your machine before ordering, its up to you to buy one if its not on the motherboard already.

> 3 dayDoes not even need a heatsinks to operate under full load. My Samsung drives have been dying left and right and I no longer trust them. Hynix is now in charge of my data :) I Still love bdie ram though.

> 3 dayM2 drives are a bit more work to install, but worth it. The P41 is the fastest SSD available until the PCIe 5 drives come out. Perfectly compatible with ASUS Strix Z790 motherboard. Great price on Amazon too.

> 3 dayI own a 2019 Elitedesk 800 g5 mini. I thought upgrading from a 1TB 980 Samsung Pro NVMe to the new SK Hynix P41 2TB Nvme would be a speed and storage space improvement. Sadly, it was not. You may feel excited owning one of the fastest newest PCIe 4th generation NVMe drives. However, it looks like a lot of motherboards before 2021 do not support this standard yet, so you will be running this 2TB drive on your older motherboards at 3rd generation speeds. Its slower than the 980 pro on my Elitedesk 800 g5. I am disappointed. I wanted 2TB of space, but not at a sacrifice of boot, web surfing and application loading speed. I compared see the hard disk led staying on much longer with my new 2TB drive. Perhaps the other thing you may not realize is that the NVMe drive is in the box between the plastic pieces. Its so light and sealed firmly that you may think you got an empty box. It is in there! Separate the two pieces of plastic protecting it!

> 3 dayI bought this drive based on a comparison review I read with the big players (ie Samsung, Western Digital et al) where it seemed to outperform in a number of categories related to r/w speeds and overall energy use. I bought it not sure if it would even function in the the Dell laptop I put it in which came with a 250gb drive. The laptop recognized the drive without issue. I also put Ubuntu Desktop 20.04 on it. Flawless install, works perfectly, boots faster and now with 8x the space. Now I wonder if this mobo can accept 32 gb of memory. Hmmmm…
