Sweet spot for performance and price
Works great out of the box, zero issues with the drive. Be aware that Corsair does provide free software to duplicate a drive which would have been really useful except for the fact that the software has to recognize that you have a Corsair drive or it won't run. This is fine if you slap the drive in an internal slot....it doesn't work if you are using an external enclosure because the software sees it as the enclosure. At least that is what I could figure out. With that said the performance is great and I am glad that I bought it.

Great upgrade over a SATA SSD.
This replaced an older SATA SSD i use for general storage, the speed alone is several magnitudes faster and it helped to tidy up my build with no hard drives, only M.2 storage options. I use this specific model, in conjunction with another Gen 4 2tb M.2 for general storage and i couldn't be happier. Installation was a breeze, configuring drives are a slice of cake nowadays.

Perfect nvme
Good storage space and very quick access. Installed in a b650 board and it was easy as pie. Would buy it over and over for any pc I build.
