Asked 4 years ago by mikg.

• A:Answer Despite what the title says this is a standard 980. I tried purchasing it assuming the title was correct, but sadly it is just the standard 980. If you do purchase this just be aware Best Buy will not honor an exchange for the 980 PRO as I was informed they go of the model number in their systems not the product title or description.

Q: QuestionSince it is refurbished does it still work like brand new? Because i am trying to get an SSD that can work with Rust.

Asked 3 years ago by RUSTTURTLE.

• A:Answer I purchased this late December 2021, installed the very next day. It came in a anti-static bag, wrapped in bubble wrap, so there is no original packaging, but it did not have any outward signs of abuse and after I cloned my drive, it performed wonderfully. Coming from a mechanical hard drive with 140 MB/s I'm now quite satisfied with 3500 MB/s sequential read speeds. Boot time for Windows dropped from 6 minutes to about 6 seconds.

Q: Questioni can install in my HP computer?

Asked 3 years ago by ciccio.

• A:Answer HP has many models of computers. Like every other brand of computer. Some will have the PCIe NVME ports and some don’t. What I would recommend is asking Google with the exact model number. For example, my HP here does accept it. You can also use pcie to nvme riser cards to add compatibility to most full size desktop computers.
