    This is hands down the most power efficient SSD you can buy, with performance as good as any PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive. Compared to the three year old SN850X the power draw is ~60% at full load and ~1% at idle, making it perfect for laptops both from a thermals and battery life perspective. Despite being without a DRAM, read speeds are only an imperceptible 0.7% slower whereas write speeds are a noticeable 9.5% faster. All results are based on Crystal Disk Mark tests on both SSDs which I own.

    The Hard Drive is compatible with my MSI MAG b550 Tomahawk motherboard, however, the read and write speed is not performing as expected when transferring from SSD to SSD.
