This SSD might be one of the fastest that I have had so far and I say that being one that has stuck to one brand for quite a while now and it's very possible that I might be changing brands soon! this M.2 like most of the others is easy to install. the nice thing about this SSD is that it is in all actual fact backward compatible to Gen3 even though it's a Gen4 so if you don't have a gen4 free to use it will still work. Speed wise for read it's 7100 mb/s with a write speed of 6000. If your a gamer this would be great for you as it does load up fast game wise and the same with other software. If your putting this into a laptop you do not want to use a heat sink as it will not fit if your putting it in a Xbox then yes you will need a heat sink version. To be honest I really haven't found many cons for this SSD even after reading up on it and the cons that I mention are not the ones that I might thing are cons as I stated I haven't found many if any at all yet. These two cons are what I have read about the TBW being low a 440 if I remember correctly which means Low durability, and the other one is that is max's out at 2tb no ifs and's or buts, unlike other name brand one that give some lead way on the storage. All in all this SSD is a good one and I would recommend it to anyone

Amazing when I look back on years of storage evolution... I got my first Best Buy Credit Card, to get a 200MB hard drive for $200... Now we are doing 2TB in the size of a stick of gum.
We dropped this chip into our son's gaming desktop, as a secondary storage device. His MB supports up to Gen 2 performance, and we didn't have to do anything in settings or configurations to allow this Gen 4, to work perfectly fine.
The system immediately recognized it, got into Windows and formatted it in a blink as a 2nd drive.
Write times are super fast, for most files and directories we transferred it was in a blink (almost like it was going to the same device.
Game play seems to be improved for games that were re-installed onto this drive (removed from the main system).
The only downside, and that has to do with the mother board setup, is that we had to remove the video card, in order to access the slot to install this chip. So a little planning is necessary on this one.
But end of day.. . to get his kind of space, performance at this price point... if your Mother board supports it, this is a no brainer

I recently purchased this SSD drive and it seems to be performing well in my HP Omen 15 laptop. I only use Crucial SSD drives in my laptop and when used with the Crucial Storage Executive software you can enable the momentum cache which improves the read speed of the drive. I have had this drive for about 1 month and it has performed well for my needs. I found using the included software to migrate the OS went exceptionally well and greatly improved the speed on how fast I could migrate my OS to the new drive. Worth the purchase.

Solid performance and no issues for my latest build. They were still relatively cheap when I got them, hopefully they come down in price again once the AI bubble pops.
