J’en ai acheté 3 pour mettre dans des HP Prodesk, et donnés des erreurs Smart (313) en bootant. Pas trop fiable, j’ai remplacé par des kingston a1000 et les erreurs ont disparues.Le boîtes on étés jetés alors je suis pris avec!

Never heard of this brand. But tried it this time and it works great. Super fast load times under 10 secs. Doesn’t feel or look cheap. Does exactly what it says and the delivery was great.

What a joke of an NVMe. Inconsistent speeds and a total drive failure less than two years from purchase. Lost a ton of data. Thanks Silicon Power!Buy from a reputable brand, i.e. Samsung, WD, or Crucial. This piece of junk is a waste of your money.

Bought to replace a 500gb Samsung ssd for games. It is faster at loading games and generally a little snappier on windows desktop compared to sata ssd. Glad to be rid of sata and power cables in my case with this nvme drive.
john –
drive was defective upon installation (randomly blue screens and disappears from bios, fails dell diagnostics), regardless of Operating system reinstallation. the manufacturer’s warranty policy requires that YOU pay to ship their defective product back to them in order for them to replace under warranty…which is just adding insult to injury.

I am extremely disappointed with this. The drive was good with performance and storage, but that was when it wasn’t dead. I never mistreated it, I just one day pressed the power button to turn my pc on, to find that my main drive was dead. Hopefully I can somehow get a refund for this

En fait, c’était pour un échange sur du matériel neuf le SSD d’origine me semblait peu performant et de trop faible capacité. Je n’est donc aucun critère de comparaison je peut simplement dire que cela correspond parfaitement à mes besoins. (Dell 2en1 I7-10510u sous Linux).La livraison s’est faite dans les temps mais au max de la fourchette (expédié quatre jours après la commande (je ne souhaite pas offrir de rente à Amz en prenant “Premium”)

I bought it as per Lenovo service executive recommendation, its easy to install and working pretty well. My laptop usually Tak a minute or two to boot itself, not it’s taking 4-5 seconds to boot. Launching apps pretty quick and comfortably. I am using it with 8gb ram, able to work with 4 instances of visual studio, 2 instances of SQL server, chrome browser with 10 tabs opened, Skype, Teams, outlook… As part of my regular activities.
Ithiel Hernandez –
This works great, fast boot up time and response time. The only issue is that this drive is not 512 GB as label, straight out of the box it’s at 476 GB with nothing installed. Overall great drive but the capacity if not correct. ❌
Camrin Kreider –
It may not be the fastest or have the most storage but since this is the only drive for my computer it works well. Fast boot times and no trouble with storage capacity maxing out.

Edit 1: After having this drive for a few MONTHS, it started to fail. Random bouts of not being recognized by the mobo, and when it was recognized, I could not repair windows. So I tried reinstalling Windows completely to find out that I could not write ANY data to the drive. I have requested an RMA with silicon power. So far I have not received any communication as of yet. Will give it another week and we shall see. We can still have a good experience here, albeit not with the actual product. Will be updating when I hear/receieve something. For now, I have adjusted my rating to 3 stars.Original:Needed to upgrade an HTPC and one of the upgrades I planned was gettting an SSD. What brought me to this NVMe drive was the fact that I could get it super cheap, and it was plenty big enough for Windows on it. Another bonus is the fact that I don’t have to deal with Sata Power or Sata data cables. Easy installation for the most part. The teeny tiny screw that is used to secure it to the motherboard can be a hassle sometimes, but I got it. If you’re on a tight budget like I was you can’t go wrong with this drive!

This product looked great in the announcement. Great price, great features.I purchased 2. Installed then on a raid 0. Not that great performance as I was expecting but it was fine. But then one of the drives failed. Lost all my information. It’s “working” but it shows 0gigs and delayed writes. Tried to contact support 5 days later they tell me my info is lost. I have to ship back the device from Colombia. And they expect me to cover the shipment that’s more expensive than the actual product.TLDR: save a your info and your money and get a different brand. You’ll save in the long run

Not the fastest drive, but for everyday work it does the job fine. I replaced the factory drive in my Dell for a bit more space, and I am getting slightly faster speeds than the stock drive. my only complaint is the cloning software could be better, it works, but isnt the most user friendly.

The ssd worked fine for 10 month nothing unusual, did not use it for over the top load, just casually gamed occasionally and moved few videos from or to other drives. But one day it randomly stopped appearing as a drive, checked BIOS it’s not recognized, checked on other computers it’s not recognized, the ssd just stopped working for no apparent reason

This SSD gave me problems from the start. Used it in a new built and while OS initially installed fine, PC kept crashing every few hours. After days and hours of troubleshooting including disassembling/ reassembling everything, turns out it was this SSD. Replaced it with a Crucial as the system drive and the crashes stopped. Reformatted the Silicon Power SSD and used it in the second M2 slot of the PC as a storage drive. After a few weeks PC was no longer able to read the drive at all. Put SSD into an external enclosure and tried to connect to another PC -same result. SSD can no longer be accessed at all.

Worst m.2 drive I’ve ever used by far…bought it for a brand new build and was fine then I was getting boot errors windows freezing and even not detected in bios. Worst part is they wanted me to return it before they sent me another and be out of a working PC for a week when I need to get work down….better off taking a HD 250gb from 2002.

Ho installato il prodotto in una configurazione nuova. Funziona senza problemi, unico appunto che mi sento di far notare è che la velocità di lettura è esattamente quella riportata nell’inserzione, per quanto riguarda quella di scrittura invece è leggermente più lento (si parla di circa 2600 contro i 3000 dichiarati).A parte questo il prodotto funziona bene e, nonostante l’appunto fatto, lo ricomprerei, considerando il costo inferiore rispetto ad altri prodotti che presentano le stesse caratteristiche.

Performed a clean Windows install on this new Silicon Power 1TB M.2 PCIe SSD. It is extremely fast, works perfectly, easy to install, recognized immediately by the OS installer, seems to boot almost instantly. I’m extremely pleased with this wonderful purchase. Well worth the expense, best value for money in my opinion. My upgrade was from a smaller 128GB M.2 SSD that came with my HP Omen gaming laptop, and this new 1TB Silicon Power SSD performs far better. I was worried that I was not spending double the money on a fancy pants name brand SSD, but I have no regrets.

A dispetto della marca non molto nota nei circuiti informatici, ho constatato la validità della componente facile da montare, decisamente performante e con temperature di esercizio decisamente tollerabili.Per il momento non ho riscontrato problemi nella sua installazione immediata e facile nello slot M.2 della mia scheda madre MSI; il riconoscimento bios, la partizione e l’installazione del S.O. non hanno presentato alcun problema e sono state immediate. Le prestazioni ne hanno giovato non poco anche rispetto al SSD Samsung 850evo montato in precedenza.Posso considerarmi soddisfatto dalle sue prestazioni e dal suo rapporto qualità prezzo seppure il sito ufficiale non offra una grande assistenza ma solo un programma di clonazione dischi. Al momento non ci sono aggiornamenti firmware.

Bewertung für: Silicon Power PCIe M.2 NVMe SSD M.2 1TB Gen3x4 R/W up to 3.400/3.000MB/sBenutzt als Bootmedium auf MSI X470 gaming pro mit Ryzen 5; 2600 (3,8Ghz) und 2x8GB Hyperfury 3200 (2933 Ghz).Habe eine als Speichermedium benutzt und eine als Bootplatte. Meine alte 2,5” Boot-SSD mit Paragon Harddiskmanager auf diese m.2 geklont. Danach nur noch I/O-Error und m.2 nicht mehr ansprechbar! Die zweite gekaufte Speicher-m.2 läuft noch. Lesewerte siehe Bild ca. 2700 MB/s, Schreibwerte sehr sprunghaft zwischen 500 MB/s und 2500 MB/s. Also bei weitem nicht das, was der Hersteller verspricht! Da ich jedoch Zuverlässigkeit sehr schätze, geht diese m.2 1TB zurück!

Modulo SSD M.2 da 1TB facilissimo da installare su Lenovo ideapad 700-ISK. Clonato modulo originale da 128 GB in poco più di 10 minuti tramite lettore acquistato a parte, montato sul notebook ed avviato alla velocità della luce senza bisogno di passare tramite il BIOS. Cosa fondamentale per me era riuscire a clonare anche le partizioni nascoste di recovery. Tutto semplicissimo. Spedizione PRIME come sempre perfetta. Se devo trovare un neo è il mancato riconoscimento del seriale per poter installare il software proprietario per clonare l’SSD originale. Ho chiesto all’assistenza vedremo cosa mi risponderanno. Appena avrà notizie aggiornerò la recensione.

I wasn’t expecting much since this is one of the cheapest nvme drives in the market but I was blown away when I did a speed test, this was way faster than the original drive on my 2017 MacBook Air. By the way, to fit this into a MacBook air I had to use an adapter. I personally used one of the cheapest adapters, it’s made by JESOT, $6.99 at the time I bought it. Crossing fingers it last long enough, I did this upgrade due to running out of storage with the stock 128gb drive. The drive and the adapter was a perfect fit and as long as you’re careful and gentle, like you should be, nothing fell apart or was broken.This drive is formated to be used in a windows based pc so you have to either have to use a USB installer, Internet recovery or target disk mode in order to format it to use it in an apple PC and off course to install the system or restore a backup. I personally used a USB installer of Catalina and started fresh just because I wanted to do a fresh install of the system and applications while I was at it. Replacement of the drive and installation of the operating system took maybe 20mins, I was blown away by the speed during the system install.

I replaced the mechanical hard drive in an HP laptop with this SSD, and for whatever reason, they did not play nice together. Laptop would boot, but then hang and then blue screen with ‘inaccessible boot device’. Since it was for a customer I replace it with a Crucial SSD and it’s been working fine. I put this SSD in a PC as a test and it’s been running 24/7 without a problem, so not sure where the issue lay. It’s otherwise been a fine SSD.
GingerSnap –
Used as a boot drive in my Alienware alpha R2. Works well and is so much faster than the mechanical drive and edges out my Sata SSD slightly.
Trusting Customer –
Good specs, Good price BUT bad performance. Using the freeware utility Crystal Disk Info to check the actual specs & health of this NVMe SSD, I found that right out of the box, on the first startup after cloning a 40GB drive to this new SSD that it already lost 1% of it’s life!!! That is unacceptable. On day two after several restarts, it used up ANOTHER 1% of its life. By slowly dying 1% per day, these drives will only last about 3-4 months in normal use! That’s outrageous. If you want a budget SSD that will last awhile then avoid this brand. By comparison, I’m running a Western Digital Blue NVMe for almost 2 months with 6 re-clonings and it still shows 100% life left. That’s the way these SSD’s should perform – not losing 1% per day.

Purchased July 21st 2020. Today is November 3rd 2020 and the drive died on me. Completely unacceptable. First time trying out an NVME drive and this has got to be the worst experience ever. Used regular SSD prior for 5+ years and never ran into any issues. I am a student and saved all of my work onto this drive. Now I have to start from scratch. Never will purchase drives from this brand again. Terrible. Unreliable.

bought this with an adaptor for a really small dell AMD FX 8800p system someone gave me. I didn’t need the system, and felt the aging 2tb drive was too old to consider dependable for my nephews so I gave them a 1tb that was newer for storage and this drive as their new main drive for speed. problem was, I had no sata header on the board that was free. I didn’t want to take the only one being used by the rom drive as I wanted that drive for my nephews if they ever wanted to watch dvds together or if one was using the xbox, this would increase speed for game performance. so now they have a drive giving an older pc life that might have been sold for very little or scrapped if not donated. a pc that was still capable of running games in hight 720p and low to mid level 1080p which is fine for them. the drive will most likely function longer than this system that it can be used on their next system down the road. so the nvme was actually a good investment. and i can always repurpose the adaptor in that case down the road.

Bought this July 26, 2021. It failed tonight Dec 12, 2021. While inexpensive – it unfortunately did not last. Was a Proxmox boot disk in a homelab. NOT 24/7, periodic use or anything, so I seriously doubt I wore it out with usage of 4hrs per night about 2 nights a week over the last 6 month… REALLY Disappointing. I wouldn’t order this BRAND again.That said, the SELLER was fantastic to work with. I wish I could rate you separately from the product! You were prompt with the delivery, great communicating order status and progress and the item was exactly what I ordered.-Keith Hyer

Drive has completely died. I was using it as a boot drive and had to replace with another 1tb Samsung model which was about $50 more, faster, has a better warranty, and is a more reputable brand. Do not buy this unless you’re using it as an external thumb drive and can afford to lose the data on it.

I had this drive running windows 10 with no problems. Then, 5 days short of the 2 year mark, it dies on me. Not pushing the SSD to it’s limits or anything, never used it for anything intensive really. Just normal wear and tear. I would recommend taking your $ and spending a little extra for a drive that will last you longer than just 2 years.

Added to Synology 920+ NAS as read-only cache about 5 months ago. No issues with quality or performance. The biggest improvement appears to be for loading library posters in Plex. If you are adding to your NAS, I highly recommend upgrading RAM as well as that will likely be even more beneficial.

Muy buen producto, la garantía de 5 años da confianza, sin embargo creo que deberían incluir un tornillo para instalar la mnve, también debería traer todo el almacenamiento, es decir, solo traer 932 gb de capacidad de almacenamiento reales. A favor me parce genial todos los protocolos de protección que incluye, además del software que se puede descargar y ejecutar directo del fabricante da buenas opciónes e información sobre el mnve.Las velocidades fueron de 1600 MB/s tanto en escritura como en lectura, esto en un Pcie gen 3×2, seguro que en un 3×4 da mejores resultados.

Its well known brand , but in india very few people know. Quality is best and reasonable price. Speed of Read/Write is way more high than normal SSD. And normal SSD 250 gb is 2500 and speed of Read/Write is 500 MBps, Here silicon power gives Read/Write speed of 1400MBps/900GBps around. And price is 2800 around.Go for it.This is made in Taiwan product. Manufactured and Imported in August 2021.I am using this product since last 30 days around and I m happy with it performance. Boot time is just 4-5 second( I know, its hard to believe, but its true.). This is NVme 2.1 SSD make sure your motherboard have this kind of slot. (generally it comes with 2 notch(old technology) and this one has 1 notch(this is latest one))

Die erste gelieferte 1TB-Version war leider defekt (hab irgendwann aufgehört, die defekten nicht lesbaren Sektoren zu zählen), ist Gestern zurückgegangen.Die SSD ist aktuell unschlagbar günstig, und hat viele gute Rezensionen, so dass ich dem Produkt noch eine Chance geben möchte.Hoffe, dass die neue Bestellung nun funktioniert, werde nach Erhalt berichten.EDIT: Die zweite Lieferung war einwandfrei, erhöht die Geschwindigkeit des PCs spürbar, auch im Vergleich zu meiner alten SSD! Überspielen des Betriebssystems auf die neue Karte war eine Herausforderung, das liegt aber nicht an der Karte.Deswegen Bewertung von 2 Sternen auf 5 Sterne geändert! 🙂

This M.2 seems like its good, but it didn’t work for me. I wasted 10 hours trying a million different ways to install Windows 10 via a bootable drive onto this M.2. All looked well, then the computer would restart and try to finish the install and it would get stuck at “Getting Ready”. No matter what I tried it wouldn’t work. I went to my local microcenter, talked to them and they told me this brands m.2 cards aren’t made very well and tend to fail and he recommended a samsung m.2. I got a 1tb samsung 970 evo plus m.2, popped it in and it worked GREAT. I was also on an ASRock B660m ITX, not sure if this m.2 wasn’t compatible with it, but apparently it wasn’t.All in all, this might work well for others but I’d trust the samsung m.2’s over this one.

I needed an SSD in a pinch to replace my laptop’s failed drive. Performance wasn’t a big factor, I was mostly looking for reliability from a (relatively) well known brand. At this price point and storage capacity, this SSD is hard to beat amongst the well-established/reliable SSD manufacturers.

Never in my life have I ever got an SSD that does not operate properly. I had Windows 10 installed on this and I always get lag, I am not able to do anything with this SSD, as it it so slow. Always on 100% and I am not able to do anything with this. Can i get a replacement or something? This SSD has no use. Thx.

I bought this for a laptop I got trying to repair it, and I ended up not using it for the laptop however I did effortlessly switch it from my pc to the laptop multiple times with no issues. It works just fine I installed windows on it in ~40 minutes so its definitely on par with speed standards. Works perfect as an OS drive or a second hard drive, or in a laptop.

This 512 GB NVMe M.2 SSD lasted about 6 months despite being operated under ideal conditions. The computer was clean, barely used, kept in a well air-conditioned room, and operated at completely stock specs. The RMA process was painless which is the least they can do. I’m not sure that I will trust the replacement drive to do more than be a flash drive given the durability on this first one.

best value. good element base. and use ddr4 new standart of speed. that what make sense fox for now on a trade. + very fast controller.Add foto with speed 4Y.Not for upgrade and worst …. for old system!If you got slot of m.2 – that’s not proof of speed. Check your speed in datasheet of your motherboard. Maybe you can win in size or save some money for yourself.With best wishes

First and foremost I am a huge fan of SP products – in fact, I consistently buy all their products for various hardware applications for the last 2+ years … however … despite the phenomenal price point and highly reliable physical devices, SP consistently relies on 3rd party software which is VERY, VERY glitchy for their SSD and M.2 hardware installation (cloning) which makes it very unfortunate since it wrecks the overall experience … specifically, the NTI Echo software is a glitchy, ill-conceived piece of software that caused me to waste 2 days installing this otherwise wonderful piece of equipment into a brand new Dell 5575 … the process to acquire the NTI Echo software is insanely complicated and SP does a very poor job of explaining how you need to prep to get itStep 1. YOU MUST have the actual serial number off the device (not the box) to even attempt to download the software – you don’t find out about this until you already installed the device and closed your laptop – so now you have to re-open the laptop, remove the M.2 and take a pic. or write down the specific serial number which also has way too many “0” and “O” that you will have to trial and error several timesStep 2. Once you finally register and download the software, the next step appears to be a straightforward single screen with 2 drop down menus BUT IT’S NOT!!! – if you are cloning 2 drives that are already in the laptop then it’s no problem at all and it executes in record time – however – if you are cloning drives using the USB option the NTI Echo software leads you to a reboot and endless looping no matter what you do until either you remove and erase the drive and essentially start from scratch or you manage to find the obscure help from other users through endless on-line searches that advise you to enter the laptop recovery mode and then attempt to fix your Windows Boot Record to get rid of the pesky NTI Echo instructions that are now loaded into memory – this literally took 2 days of various trial and error and endless research for the obscure instructions from some other desperate and angry user who was a good Samaritan to leave instructions on this mess … worst part the Win10 installation did get corrupted and forced a complete, clean reinstall all the same which also forced the full reinstall of application so cloning was one giant BUST! Ultimately I recommend the SP hardware but use other true and tried software to do your cloning …

It’s not the fastest, but it’s still much faster and a good upgrade from a sata SSD.At the time of purchase, at $37, it’s the best dollar per GB for a 500 GB drive from a reputable brand. You can get even better value going for a 1TB drive, but I personally don’t need that much space and opted to go for the smaller size for a discount.

For a medium tier ssd (just barely) this nvme m.2 performs pretty well. It has no heat sink and it’s dram-less hopefully anyone buying knows that, it’s not going to give you the same performance as a 970pro evo. As a drive for games though you’ll have no regrets. Installed this on my midrange pc (b450m) within minutes, I had to pop out the gpu as the location is a bit in there but that’s a mobo thing not the drive. Pretty solid read/write speeds for a gen3 midrange. Not really much else to add aside from understanding what you are buying, it’s a good price for a midtier dram-less ssd, the same from WD or Hynix will run you about $20-$30 more, but it’s still a 3rd gen and you’re getting what you paid for essentially. If you need something with higher TBW, read/write speeds, than please consider a higher tier WD or Samsung or consider a gen4 if your mobo allows it.What it’s good for:Basic file storage/transferGamesSome mid level media editingHuge improvement over any HDD and minimal improvement over sata SSDsWhat it’s not going to do:Large scale file storage/transfer (meaning it won’t do with the 1tb being constantly rewritten thousands of times abs might have performance issues if constantly full)4k media editingThe ability to cool itself when met with higher temps (100c+) if you buy a heatsink or your mobo came with one it might do slightly better

Moving from a HD to A sata SSD i was happy with the boot time over a minute. Then I upgraded to this in a new pc build. My computer from cold off boots to desktop in 35 seconds. Applications have never been snappier. I know there are faster NVMe Drives out there, but if your upgrading from a sata hd or ssd, you will notice quite a difference.On my old computer running sata ssd rendering 2 minute test video it took 4:30 to render. On the new machine with the SP Drive less than 30 seconds I was floored. I use this drive as my boot drive/programs, and keep my other stuff on other drives so i have over 65% of the drive free. If you are a gamer get a bigger drive if your a average user your be just fine. Would happily buy another as it really made more of a impact than expected.Not the fastest drive out there but more than quick enough for the value of price i paid for it. Save your money if your a average user, and buy this you’ll be quite happy with the performance.

I rarely do reviews on things I order, but I definitely needed to for this. For the insanely cheap price, this is a steal. The drive shipped brand new with 100% life and as I was doing the speed test, as shown below, the speeds are what you’d expect from a drive that is twice as large in storage capacity. I’m extremely happy with this purchase.NOTE: Keep in mind, it does not come with the mounting screw

* Works well and reduced the laptop ASUS TUF FX505DT booting time from about 3-4 minutes (HDD) to around 10-15 seconds (this SSD).* All usual file related operations are now done quickly. Earlier, it took lot of time with HDD.* Reasonably priced one when compared to well known brands with similar config.* Was skeptical about the relatively lesser known SP brand but the product does what it is advertised for.Note for Windows installation:* I opted for fresh installation of Windows 10 onto this SSD as recovery from USB forced the installation wizard to choose existing HDD. No lincence key was asked as it is embedded in BIOS (OEM build). I read clean installation is better option for performance instead of cloning HDD. But, the pain part is one has to install all the other software.

Bought this as a portable large storage device via USB. Transferred all my data to it to move to my new laptop. Formatted my old labtop. Tried to plug it into my new labtop. Harddrive was dead. Brought it to two repair shops who said they could not read the drive, and that it would need to be sent to a specialist that could cost over 1000$ because of the way the drive failed, blinks red and gets ridiculously hot. the owner of the one shop said… thats what I get for buying a cheap brand like silicon. Lost 2000$ of wedding footage on this drive I was gonna edit.Number 1 lesson learned. Dont move data till its backed up on my server.Silicon also responded saying they would do nothing to help the situation.

Very glad I had found my m.2 mounting screws for my motherboard. If you don’t already have one mounted you likely won’t have the screws on the motherboard. This is just the drive nothing else.

I haven’t heard of Silicon Power 1TB – NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen3x4 2280 TLC SSD (SP001TBP34A60M28) before but I took a risk buying it. I usually stick with brand names like Western Digital. I have a new system I just built that is mostly a standby system I let visitors to my home use in a pinch. I brought this Silicon Power 1TB – NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen3x4 2280 TLC SSD (SP001TBP34A60M28) N2 SSD to see how well it does in normal use. I have a backup Western Digital N2 SSD should this one go bad.So far the Silicon Power 1TB – NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen3x4 2280 TLC SSD (SP001TBP34A60M28) is holding up well. Video games play quickly and video rendering is fine. The internet is fast. No sooner than I press an internet button in Firefox the link appears like magic. There are no SSD related issues. I have my Windows 10 operating system on this drive to make it lightening fast. There are no paging errors or problems seen in Task Manager.I’m running it on a Ryzen 9 XT processor so its speed demon fast. So far I’m impressed.Well so far

– Tested on a system (AMD 3400G, 32GB DDR4 3000, and an ASROCK Fat1lty B350 motherboard) In an M.2 PCIE 3.0 slot, This drive is rated for a 2200MBps read speed and clocks in at about 1900MBps for file sizes between 256KB and 64MB. Read slows down with files less than 256KB. The drive is rated for 1600MBps write speed and clocks in at ~1560MBps for most file sizes 32KB to 64MB. With one terrible exception 8MB. For some reason if the file sizes close to 8MB the write speed slows all the way down to 175MBps. That being said most MP3 songs are between 4 and 8MB, so if you are doing a large volume transfer of songs to this drive expect it to be sluggish. I tested this drive several times to confirm this short coming and it is consistent even if you disable write caching.- Moving on I was rather impressed with IOPS, even though their own website does not state the factory rated IOPS this drive tested at over 70K for files up to 2K in size and remained at nearly 50K for files up to 16KB in size. These high IO ratings with small files make games operate very smoothly with no noticeable lag.- Overall being that it uses TLC rather than the cheaper QLC NAND, Has descent throughput and includes a 5 year warranty I would highly recommend this drive to anyone needing a 1TB system drive that is looking for best bang for your buck!

Habe mir von diesem SSD gleich 2 Stück in der Größe 1TB gekauft, welche ich jeweils in einem Icy Box Gehäuse (ICY BOX M.2 NVMe Adapter mit Gehäuse) nutze. Ich mache hiermit an meinen MACs (iMac Retina Late 2015, MacBook Pro 16″) eine 1:1 Kopie mit Carbon Copy Cloner. Dabei erreiche ich Speicherraten von ca. 330 MB/s am iMac sowie ca. 750 MB/s am MacBook Pro. Dadurch ist die erste Sicherung in weniger als 18 bzw. 35 min erledigt. Gesichert werden jeweils ca. 700 GB. Habe die SSD auf der Herstellerseite registriert und somit 5 Jahre Garantie, für mich absolut bemerkenswert, zumal wenn man den deutlich niedrigeren Preis berücksichtigt. Ich bin jedenfalls begeistert. Ach ja, eins noch. Die oben angegebenen Speicherraten habe ich lediglich mit den mitgelieferten Kabeln erreichen können, nehme ich jedoch ein dünnes USB-C Kabel bricht der Durchsatz auf weniger als ein Zehntel ein (Dies sowohl am iMac als auch MacBook Pro)

Faster than sata drives for light usage. The light that let’s you know when it’s reading/writing is an odd addition since most pc cases have some sort of hdd led.Worked as a boot drive on a budget system which left a little room to install a few games which is nice because more recent titles built for consoles seem to be written to take advantage of faster storage.

I backed up about 200 GB of data in an external enclosure. It started out fast, but soon slowed to between 10 to 100 Mbps. I assume it was just thermally throttling. It took about 90 but completed without errors. However, after a reboot, the drive was dead. The computer saw the enclosure, but the drive was 0 bytes. Should’ve known a drive that is 4 bucks more that the enclosure was a bad idea.

The pricepoint is just right if you’re factoring in reliability vs power vs price.Bought this on a whim for a budget build to replace a 2009 Dell Desktop PC. Compatible with all new components and the mobo I purchased, I noticed that it doesn’t hold up to the posted read/write speeds it advertised. However, the drive is reliable and works great and holds up when paired with other components, with no noticeable spike in heat or drop in performance over a period of time like other SSD drives might, even amongst other M.2 budget brands.If you’re tight on cash and want something decent, you’ll be hard-pressed to find something as good as this especially when it’s on sale.

The drive has only been used for a little more than a month and currently connected via USB 3.0 — so, ~400 MB/s limit. Nevertheless, no reliability issues or performance inconsistency problems to speak of, plus I have no doubt it will fully utilize (saturate) USB 3.1 when that time comes.

It’s definitely fast, but without the dram cache it isn’t worth it. I wish I would have tested it more before buying.If you only deal with small files, or you’re buying it for your grandma, then sure, get it, but this thing can’t even handle a 1.5GB file being copied over at full speeds! It copies at over 500MB/s for half a second, and then dies down to under 10MB/s, and sometimes even below 1MB/s. The same thing happened when extracting said file; my 3900X was chewing through it for a second or two, and then the speeds just absolutely tanked.Please guys, don’t make the same mistake as me and get a dramless ssd and think that you won’t notice a difference. Because you will, and it will be with slow, sub-hdd speeds.

It make most games played like game cartridges.Too fast for gaming. Because most in-game reading won’t even reach half of the spec speed.But it does make game load faster than a SATA SSD.This nvme ssd is cheaper than some sata ssd.It is a easy choice to buy this ssd.A60 is installed on a B350 Tomahawk. Speed is good, almost reach the spec.I use it only for gaming, most read no write. Temp is below 60C with some airflow from a GTX1080 above the ssd.When writing over 10~20G files continuously with no direct airflow, it may go over 70C for a few seconds. (room temp 29C)It is ok for me.The item come with no heatsink. See if you need one.The company is not a unknown Chinese company.It is a Taiwanese company. And it’s known by some Taiwanese. Not top brands but not a small one either.So I give it a shot. Hope it works as good as those big brand SSDs I have.

Product says PCIe Gen 3×4 interface with read speeds up to 2,200MB/s and write speeds up to 1,600MB/s, testing on a MSI PRO Z390-A PRO LGA 1151 (300 Series) Intel Z390 SATA 6Gb/s ATX Intel Motherboard, Real world testing shows half that speed in best settings.Product also says 512GB, but the final disk space is 476GB, guessing either they are using 1000MB = 1GB formula which is wrong and misused allot, OR, that extra missing space is being used for ECC.Although its not the entire full speed, I am very pleased with the device. Installed some games on it with on demand streaming games like Forza 4 and GTA 5, they load the game really fast and keeps up.I’d buy a few more later down the line and set up in a raid or something, pretty solid for gaming.

I installed this drive in an external enclosure. It fit perfectly and when I plugged it in to a USB 3.0 port, it was recognized in Disk Manager immediately. Then I initialized and formatted it. It was visible in Windows Explorer right away.I transfered 41GB from an external 1TB SATA hard drive and its speed was limited only by the SATA drive, taking about 20 minutes.Installation was easy (depends on the enclosure or access to the internals of your PC). I’m pleased with this drive.

I am getting read 1500mbs and write 1000mbs. PC boots within 20 seconds now and noticed this chip runs cooler then most other, the temp in my PC has dropped 15 degrees over my SATA PCIe chip that it replaced.

J’en ai acheté 3 pour mettre dans des HP Prodesk, et donnés des erreurs Smart (313) en bootant. Pas trop fiable, j’ai remplacé par des kingston a1000 et les erreurs ont disparues.Le boîtes on étés jetés alors je suis pris avec!

excellent as a first nvme drive or a quick slot filler, fast performance and automatically reinforced the dram with additional backup resources without any special bios config or anything.

Bought this drive march 2022 and September 2022 the drive started giving me problems. Now I am not able to even load into Windows. Keeps giving me a select boot device in bios. The drive only lasted 6 months. I should have spent a bit more and bought a Samsung drive. Lesson learned.

Great value and considerable improvement from HDD. I would recommend to install your OS in this device to improve your boot time.

The ssd port slot itself has stopped working as soon as i tried to install into my device. It happened to two of the devices and wouldn’t recommend it.

Works great. The cost of it is cheap. Installed it into my gaming laptop and so far had no issues loading games off of it fast. It is a secondary hard-drive.

A60 1Tb nvme gen 3Solid so far for the price. Grabbed this for my sons machine for his game library. He runs an I3 8350k @4.7 Rx 590 he gets 2000mb read 1600mb write. For the price I am more than satisfied. Comes with a 5 year warranty. So far my 3rd product from Silicon Power and I am happy with my purchases. A good affordable option.

Dur de trouver un meilleur prix pour un SSD Nvme 1 To !J’ai beaucoup hésité avec le Sabrent, les deux modèles ont l’air assez similaire … mais à priori un petit avantage pour le Silicon Power (firmware meilleur suivi, et peut être le cache plus gros que les nouvelles versions du Sabrent mais à confirmer, source Reddit).Sinon, débit +/- conforme à ce qui est annoncé et ce que les différents tests remontent. Au bout de quelques dizaines de Go le débit descend (cache plein) mais reste très correct (2x plus qu’un SSD classique).A voir d’ici quelques années si il tient, pour l’instant 5/5.

Heute bekommen und die Lese Werte sind auch auch super, nur beim Schreiben bin ich etwas unter 3000 obwohl ich x570 habe. Temp ist so weit auch gut. Firmware Update finde ich keines was nicht für denn Support spricht. Leider beim Kopieren von kleinen Dateien langsamer als jede andere HDD/SSD. Bei großen Dateien ebenfalls sehr schnell ein Abfall. Der Support ist eine Frechheit. Da arbeiten wohl nur lautet Inder. Haben null Ahnung. Kauft nichts von det Firma außer Support ist euch unwichtig!!

Having seen fake adata and silicone power as card and flash drives everywhere I was sceptical about trying this ssd. This seller is legit compaired to ebay, wish, aliexpress item came and it’s reported capacity match the marking on its flash chips and it’s box. Item came new, installed easy, and runs fast. 2 second boot times for linux and 5 seconds for win10

I’m very happy with my purchase. As usual, Silicon Power comes through. This is my 4th SP SSD and I’ve been quite satisfied with all of them. Fast and reliable for a great price point. Excellent value! See the attached DiskMark performance comparison between the stock drive that I replaced with this SP drive in my Acer gaming laptop.

Peter Nedermann –
I wanted to have a reasonably priced but capable NVME drive for my new build. This fits the bill, installation was a doddle, and the speed increase (over my old but trusty SATA SSD drive) was instantly noticeable in all aspects (mostly in windows responsiveness and games). Of course not as fast as the latest EVO drive, but with a price almost just half as much and a real-life performance close enough I think it is a really good deal….so if you don’t need the absolute top, but a good drive for everyday use and gaming would do, then put this on the shortlist with confidence: it is definitely a worthy contender
Bhavik Maheshwari –
Bought for lenovo ideapad 330s IKB 14. My god the speed is very very bhot jyda. Bhai kya to say its very tez now. Boot time from 1.5min to 3 sec! Kamal ki cheez hai. Recommended if your laptop is slow. I paired this with extra 4gb ram and laptop is faster than apple macbook. I manually installed it. No screw provided buy it from bahar se or use one from your motherboard. Thanks to indian importer to get this product in india.

Have been using this SP SSD in my HP laptop for about 1.5 years now. It installed easily using Acronis True Image and has been fast and reliable. The only concern is that it runs hot. Right now, it’s 54 degrees C but over its lifetime, it has hit 70 degrees C.

It’s great SSD, I see no difference between this and more expensive brands. Works like a champ, games loading times improved significantly, moving files on this drive and from this drive is faster than ever. If you’re looking for relatively cheap drive to use for games, look no futher!

Drive is affordable and relatively fast. Had no issues when it was under light use, but failed a little under a year once it was used more regularly. In the process of filing a warranty claim.Update: Returned the bad drive to Silicon Power and was sent a working drive. The warranty process was actually rather smooth, but the cost of shipping and inconvenience of going to the post office almost made it not worth the trouble.Increasing the rating from 2 to 3 stars as they honored their warranty.
David H. –
i had this drive as my secondary system ssd for games. i suddenly had strange crashes and WHEA-Errors, and after a lot of diagnosing if found the SSD to be the culprit. further diagnostics revealed that the controller seems to be the issue, since sometimes (not reproducable at least for me) the drive goes dead, after a reboot it is mounted as readonly then.i did all diagnostics i could think of, the SP-Toolbox downloadable via SPCCs website didnt reveal anything. also the diagnostic methods seem to be very limited for this particular drive (1TB)since i removed the sticker to apply a custom cooler because, well, its ugly 😉 i can’t hope for RMA.i bought another brand this time, lets see how it goes.also as other reviewers have mentioned, once the read cache is full, the performance drops significantly.

Padraig Buckley –
Matches up to the speeds that are advertised,my drive doing 3475MB/s and 3075MB/s Read and writes respectively.For just 20 quid more than my year old mx500 and about 6 times as quick its a great value.Same 5 year warranty too.Hanging around the 57-59 degrees mark under heavy load so no complaints there , so far looking like a great drive at a fantastic price will update if I encounter any issues.
Carlos –
Didn’t last long
Eduardo P. –
I was a bit sceptical on ordering this brand seeing as I haven’t used them before. But after doing some searching and finding a few reviews from some trusted websites I found that this is a great SDD for the money! Most of the reviews I found agreed and some even give it an editor’s choice! Would gladly buy again, and most likely will. Just wish it came with a spare screw to do the install in case your laptop doesn’t come with know. Good value for money, good speed for the price and easy install!

When I purchased this NVME stick SP claimed 3000/2200 speeds. I called there support and they kept blaming my image and hardware… not there M.2 stick. They now claim 2200/1600 speeds. In my Predator Helios 300 (PCIe 4x) I am getting a constant 1920/1800.If they would have listed these specs originally I would have spent the extra $10-$20 on an NVME that actually hits 3000.

I’ve used a lot of NVME drives before and these just seem to be pretty slow. I can’t put numbers on it but suffice it to say the same system with a Samsung EVO swapped in is far more responsive and boots much faster. (Linux) But, you can’t beat these for the money for getting away from spinning disks.

As someone that games on a mini desktop (as hard as that can be to imagine), I had the problem of only having a 256GB M.2 drive. Suffice to say, that was a horrible experience and I needed an upgrade.Lo and behold, after searching I decided on this drive and honestly it’s been great. Works as expected, no issues with installing it, and it hasn’t set the computer on fire!Would I recommend? If you’re looking for a M.2 drive, there’s no reason not to get it.

I was looking to give an older rig some extended life. Currently this Silicon Power 512GB SSD ( A60 ) is installed using a Sabrent M.2 to PCI-E Adapter & provides better speeds than the MSATA SSD I had in there ( 500+/-MB Write 500 +/-MD Read ) . I was getting satified results when benchmarking, keeping in my mind that the old rig is not gonna push out any sudden miracles, but i definitely see a huge jump in both Read and Write speeds ( See Image ).Overall performance on this old rig , which im typing the review on, has increased significanly.I should have picked this up earlier, was looking for a cost effective 512GB M.2 and i definitely found it!
Brad or Casey –
Great drive for the price. Nothing overly fancy about it, and it won’t break any speed records, but solid and fast enough to matter. Makes a great boot drive or higher capacity drive for games. Windows boots quickly from drive as well

Been using on a laptop for 5mths. It’s fast dependable.. I really don’t have any negative remarks about this Drive.. I wish I would have gotten a 512GB one.. But 256GB is pretty much good enough considering most Laptops and PC’s have an SD card slot, that’s where I put my Downloads and Documents Pictures and Music on so that being said 256GB’s really is more than enough.

I wasn’t expecting amazing performance so this drive is essentially exactly what I hoped for. Given the price, I would say it is excellent, however, do NOT expect it to perform as well as some other drives. Compared to the Samsung SSD in my Lenovo P1 this drive could probably be considered a dog but the performance is still very good. I also compared it to my external SSD where I fully expected the external drive to get it’s but kicked since it’s connected via USB 3.1 and it did. Anyway, it appears to be a very solid drive for the price so unless you need ultimate speed, I would not hesitate to purchase one. All speed tests were performed on a Lenovo P1 with an i7-8750 processor and 32 GB RAM. Reliability is yet to be determined.*** Update 10/18/2022 ***Since it has been almost 2 1/2 years since installing this, I figured I would provide an update to let potential buyers know that it is still going strong and has had zero issues. I would purchase another one of these in a heartbeat.

Purchased 3 Apr 22, installed in new ITX PC build the same month running Win11. All was good until 9 July 22 when I noticed documents I saved would disappear after a restart. Window’s updates fail to download. When I open Chrome it has a “restore your tabs” window due to not being shut down properly. The same tabs are restored every time following a restart. My PC is stuck in groundhog day, blue screens when trying to transfer files to other drive, and there’s no telling how long this drive will last before completely dying.Wish I spent more for a name brand drive.

We have been using SP for solid state storage for years. We have purchased hundreds of them. Something changed in the last few months and we are seeing over 50% failure rate and expect that to climb. Some drives come to us and won’t complete a Windows install, others fail and go into a sort of limp mode I saw described as “groundhogs day” The PC is unstable and does not take any changes. It will boot into windows and throw errors and bluescreen, when it comes back up anything we added to it is gone. I believe this is a feature of the firmware when it detects it is beginning to fail. Unfortunately, by this time it is too late to clone the drive and much of the data is unreadable. I believe the failure rate will go up because we are seeing the 1st failures on drives that were 75% full, I think this causes it to happen faster, and I predict we will see the drives with more free space start failing as well.

Come da titolo, a distanza di parecchi mesi da quando l’ho acquistato, giudico questo SSD di buona qualità con un ottimo rapporto qualità / prezzo.A distanza di anni dal mio primo SSD SATA, e dopo averne usati e installati tantissimi per lavoro, ho deciso di acquistare un modello NVMe (appena avuto disponibile un portatile compatibile, ovviamente) e posso tranquillamente affermare… ERA ORA!!Ora il pc si accende in pochissimi secondi ma, soprattutto, in caso di termine della memoria RAM a causa di applicazioni pesanti, il sistema rimane cmq efficiente (lo “swap” su disco è velocissimo).Nei miei test il disco ha raggiunto i 2.1Gb/sec , più che sufficiente per qualsiasi operazione.Acquistato in momento di offerta tempo, consiglio l’acquisto.Andrea

I got this m2 drive today and installed it onto a new gaming board as my primary drive. It’s an easy installation. Although this m2 drive has a QR code for Nintendo Switch, I took a gamble and installed it on my PC. So far, things been working fine. Windows running smoothly, fast access — reading and writing files are an absolute breeze. One thing that I am interested of purchasing this because the warranty period is 5 years. I know it’s a limited warranty like files are corrupted or damaged they are not liable for those. They are concerned for the quality of their product.If you installed Windows 10 Pro. The size will reduce to 480 plus gig. That if you install a clean OS without the bloatwares. I can recommend this for starters. Experts may chose other m2 drives but you will never go wrong for this.

Die Schreibwerte übertreffen sogar die Herstellerangaben. Siehe Screenshots.Wenn die SSD jetzt noch fünf Jahre hält, dann ist alles gut. Auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert.Mein Sys: i7 8700(@4,3Ghz), 32GB RAM@3500Mhz, RTX 2070.

By default mode, read goes to 2350mb, shocked and not believing it bc the Dell is limited to 1800mb read/1200mb write MAX. I suppose 2350mb read is probably the peak of the test. Then i run the test again in real world performance mode, got a more reasonable reading this time, approx 1700mb read & 1150mb write. I am holding out a star for i don’t know how long this SSD could last.

I use this drive for games only. That’s all I can comment on. I had a 2.5 sata ssd housing most of my games and a pair of 3.5 hard drives striped with storage spaces for my smaller games. It worked fine but I decided to buy this to house my larger games and use the 2.5 for smaller ones and get rid of the 2 hard drives. Honestly I can’t tell much difference loading games off this over a sata ssd but it’s small and cheap and works just fine. The difference is installing and updating. It’s a lot faster at that. I would say if you have a choice between this and a sata ssd for games just go with price. The difference isn’t that great. If time installing games matters then just buy this. You won’t regret that decision. I would say the same about pcie gen 4 drives. If money is no concern and you want to save time on big installs then buy that instead. If game load times are all you are after then this is fine.
Judy Brown –
Working great so far. I had a tight budget on my new PC build so I went with 500gb to start but I will upgrade in the future with more storage as games are just getting larger but this will get you going to start.

Yesterday I installed it in my MacBook Air 2015. I am writing this review on the same laptop. The hardware swap and OS installation took an hour. The overall length was slightly more, so it was bent on fastening the screw, but that could be due to the adapter.I haven’t tested read-write performance, but I bought it only to extend the life of my laptop on a budget, not for performance.

Conosco la marca ed è una garanzia. Ho installato la M.2 ed è velocissima. Anche il prezzo è vantaggioso. Lo consiglio.

Everything worked great for the past few months but today my laptop randomly froze up. When I restarted it I noticed this drive was no longer visible. I’ve tried every troubleshooting guide I could find to reformat or even access the drive with no luck. Thankfully it only has my Steam games saved to it but what a bummer. I’ll definitely be spending the extra money next time.

Failed for absolutely no reason after a few months, stuck on readonly, can’t even format it, checked for viruses, used cmd to try and clean the drive, nothing seems to work.

Finally built a new pc, old one was from 2014. I ordered this along with some SP DDR4 as a combo.. pricing was pretty good in Aug 2020. Installed windows 10 on my ryzen 5 3600/ Aorus B550 Elite with 16GB DDR4. Everything went pretty smooth, didn’t try any of the utilities just did a fresh install… If you want to use their utilities.. sort it out before you install your drive because you need a code from the BOTTOM of the drive ?? (come on man) … I would imagine some number of people have had to take the drive out to get that code and then reinstall their drives?Performance is quite good so far, seems faster than my old i7-4770k with a Samsung 850 evo SATA SSD..Temps seem fine… drive is installed along with the heat shield that came with my Aorus MB…If long term reliability is good for the money I’m be well pleased with this purchase for the long term, in the short time I have had it (few days) so far so good.

Utilisé comme DD principal système ce M2 est super efficace et ne chauffe pas.Annoncé 1 TB, il est reconnu d’une capacité de 953Go sous Windows 10 qui le reconnait facilement.Bien sûr, il faut un premier formatage d’initialisation lors de l’installation.Un des meilleurs rapports qualité prix du marché 124,99 € !

I am using this drive as an external back up device in a USB-C enclosure. It is plenty fast for that task and is very reasonably priced too.
V G Prince –
Well, all was good until last week. The little M.2 kicked the bucket right before my eyes. The computer froze then went back and would not reboot. BIOS would not see the drive no more. I replaced it with another M.2 and everything is back up, except that I lost everything.This being said, learn from my mistake and BACKUP your data often. I bought the drive in December 2020 and it died in March 2022. Prior to this, I had no complain about the drive and was happy to save a few $$$. But did I really? SMH

Ich bekomme das WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR Bluescreen nach etwa 2,5 Jahre Benutzung, während denen Windows 10 davon gebootet hat. Nun habe ich das Windows auf der anderen Festplatte (hab eine zweite in meinem Laptop) installiert und alles läuft perfekt. Also für mich ist diese SSD Festplatte Schrott. Ich werde nie mehr von dieser Firma kaufen, lieber teuerer von einem marktführende Hersteller.

Ha sido muy fácil la instalación, el tornillo ya me venia en la placa base. Dejo una foto de las velocidades que me ha dado. La temperatura me ha sorprendido, ya que he leído que se calientan mucho, pero me da unas temperaturas mejores que otro ssd (samsung 850evo) que tengo instalado. En mi humilde opinión no necesita disipación, aunque yo se la he puesto y le ha rebajado 15 grados. Muy contento con la compra.

If you want an SSD to reduce boot and load times, go for it. Pro tip, all the SSD’s in this segment have their price fluctuating, just go for the cheapest one at the moment. They give the same class of performance anyways.

This is the second Silicon Power M.2 NVME drive I’ve owned. For the price, they cannot be beat. They’re much faster than a SATA interface and for just a few dollars more. I highly recommend any Silicon Power product, the value to performance ratio is really good.
Stefy_L –
Il disco va bene, non si può recriminare nulla a questo prezzo e con un TBW molto elevato per garantire una vita operativa ben oltre i limiti di un PC.Sopporta abbastanza bene il calore anche se su questo punto fanno meglio alcuni competitor.La velocità di lettura è molto buona, la scrittura meno, per via della tecnologia utilizzata per la cache.Però mi permetto un consiglio: se non avete necessità di una velocità esasperata, tra l’altro non sempre sfruttabile, io mi indirizzerei verso HDD SSD Sata3 poichè godono di un miglior supporto dal sistema operativo in modalità nativa, senza utilizzare software di terze parti.Questa cosa assume maggior importanza se utilizzate sistemi Linux

NVME is fast. TLC is much better than QLC. Why pay the same – or sometimes more – for QLC when you can have TLC? This drive didn’t even cost me a hundred bucks for 1TB of storage, and while it’s not the fastest absolute NVME drive it’s still ~5 times faster than a SATA drive. For the price, it’s absolutely worth your money.

I had this as my main boot loader for my pc and after 6 months it stopped working. Everytime I disconnect it and place it somewhere else it boots, freezes then won’t be recognized by the bios. I summed it up to be an ssd issue.

J’en ai acheté 2, l’un possède des puces mémoires sur les 2 faces et l’autre sur une seule. Du coup forcément j’en ai un qui chauffe beaucoup plus que l’autre vu que je n’ai un radiateur que d’un seul côté.Sinon à part ça, ils fonctionnent bien, à voir dans le temps si ils respectent leur TBW de 1660.

Buyer of things –
I spent a little more to get a NVMe drive vs a SATA drive for future proofing. I’m well aware that the advantages (over SATA) are not realized using USB 3.0 on my One X but compared to an external HDD or the internal one this made a world of difference. Load times are 1/3 what they were before. The drive made the biggest difference in Forza Horizon 4, fast travel is instant, cars load during race selection and car swapping is near instant too. Also the game starts (like I said) in 1/3 the time.It helped every game (like battlefield) that I had installed but Horizon 4 was the worst load times (other than GTA) so I noticed it most there. Installed easily in an external enclosure and super simple setup.

Bought this SSD back in June and didn’t get around to installing it until the start of this month. Worked really good until it randomly died on me after 3 weeks of use. This is highly unacceptable for any sort of storage medium and resulted in me loosing everything I had installed on the drive.I am in the process of trying to either get my money back or get a replacement but I’ve yet to hear back from the company. Spend the extra $10-$15 and get something more reliable

Supper disappointed. This is my 2nd m.2 drive and I had no problems with my first from another brand. Installed this one, transfered all my data, made it my new primary drive and in 2 weeks under minimal use it completely died and I lost all data. Can never trust another product from this company. Hopefully although my data is gone I can get my money back.

Steven –
It never reached the speed advertised despite testing it in 2 different mobo’s (B550 chipset). As a matter of fact, 1.52GB/s for read & 1.35GB/s for write is its maximum speed. Maybe the manufacturer should tone down a bit on the advertised speed and aim for something more realistic. Quality wise, it is pretty solid. It’s just the speed is NOT as advertised.

I got the 1 TB M.2 NVMe as a secondary drive for my Legion 5 Laptop. It was an easy install. I used the existing screws from the former 1 TB 2.5 HDD installed when I bought the unit. It is a good value as a 2nd drive. There are faster drives out there but this was one of the better-priced ones available during August 2020.I am getting about 2000MB/s read and 1600MB/s write speeds, which is more than enough for me. This is will used for games and media files. Good value for $95 for 1 TB.

I’m not sure if a month or two is long enough to make a 5-star review, but for what it costs and my experience so far, I would say it deserves it. Testing it with a tool, it demonstrated that it can deliver the speed advertised.So far, I haven’t experienced any issues so I would recommend it to anyone who is worried about spending much on a 1TB M.2 card and at the same time wanting to benefit from the highest speeds possible today.Just a note, I also gave a similar review for Sabrent 1TB. I needed two NVMe but was only able to purchase one from Silicon Power for the price advertised at that time, so I got one made by Sabrent which is also a great product for the price in my opinion.

I was looking for some NVMe SSDs to use in an external USB enclosure. Since the speed is somewhat limited by the USB interface, I had no need to go with a Gen4x4 model, I knew I could save a little money going with Gen3x4.So far, I have 2 of the 500GB SSDs and 2 of the 1TB SSDs and every one of them has worked 100% flawlessly for me. Since I use them in an external enclosure, I move them around between quite a few systems and they have performed fine on every system tried. This includes desktop PCs, laptops, and even tablets.Especially for the very reasonable price, I’m very happy with the operation of these SSDs.

Got this M.2 SSD to try it on my older computer to see if it would work via a PCIe HBA card. The HBA connects to the PCIe 2.0 x4 slot. Being that it’s an older computer, the motherboard doesn’t support PCIe 3.0 so I’m not getting anywhere near the speeds this SSD is rated for. But I guess it’s not too bad. The computer also doesn’t support SATA3, it’s limited to SATA2. So with this NVME SSD from Silicon Power via the PCIe HBA, I’m able to get faster speeds than what I was getting from the other drives connected to the computer’s SATA2 ports.

I bought this for my xbox series s external drive, bought another case adapter too. Boy it transferred files 2.2Gbps to 2.5Gbps!!! From/to my xbox series s, very fast! For a game like Forza 5 100gb or more data size with less than 5-10 mins of transfer speed and you can also play games directly on this ext. drive too! (As long as the games is compatible for playing on fast speed ext. drives). For the price of $70 plus the adapter case. This is a good deal!

I bought one of these for my sons new PC build and it worked well for about 5 weeks, then it failed altogether. They did warranty the drive, however, I had to pay shipping and they didn’t provide a label. Really shoddy business IMO. I got the replacement back in a normal amount of time, however, I still had to buy a new drive for my son because he needed one for remote learning due to Covid-19. So goody for me, I now have a spare drive for my PC, luckily my motherboard had two m.2 slots! So you get what you pay for. It was cheap, 70% as fast as other, better drives, and failed after 5 weeks. That’s a 2 star deduction in my book.

Bin mir nicht sicher ob dieser die NVMe voll ausreizen könnte.Bin schon was Älter und komme noch aus HDD 5400 Zeiten also bin lange 50 MB/s gewöhnt gewesen. Ob da jetzt 2000 MB/s oder 3000 MB/s steht ist (mir) herzlich egal, weil sowieso schnell genung. Bin Rundum zufieden, es muss nicht immer eine EVO sein ;)Update: Mit Crystal und nur 100MB Benchdaten (kann also voll mitm cache arbeiten) erreicht sie auch ihre Daten.

Acquistato per sostituire un SSD M2 PREDATOR HYPERX che ha deciso di suicidarsi senza preavviso. La fretta di far ripartire la mia macchina non mi ha spinto a ricercare costose e più blasonate soluzioni quindi quando ho ricevuto (in giornata) questo prodotto l’unico mio pensiero era “qualsiasi cosa va bene purché si riparta ! ” e invece mi sono ritrovato un SSD M2 che ha superato qualsiasi mia migliore aspettativa. Window 10 Pro è stato installato in meno di 6 minuti. Speriamo che dimostri di essere anche longevo.

Eccellente…sorpreso , montati su notebook Asus Rog G752VT già veloce di suo con due SSD Samsung P951 e P961 ora è una scheggia con due SSD Silicon Power da 1TB. I test che ho eseguito come da foto, rispecchiano quello dichiarato e non sfigurano a confronto dei più blasonati marchi anzi con una spesa di quasi cento euro in meno per avere identici risultati. Sugli SSD ho applicato una striscia di pad termico e sotto stress non superano i 50°. Rifarei sicuramente l’acquisto. Da specificare che per ottenere i risultati più vicini a quelli dichiarati, bisogna montarli su schede madri o notebook che supportano le specifiche PCIe M.2 NVMe Gen3x4.

The NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen3x4 2280 SSD seemed like a good deal. It worked well for the first few months but then started to crash repeatedly. Reformatting brings it back to life for about 2 weeks before it crashes again. Considering that it only worked fine for a few months even the initial good deal is definitely way to expensive to make up for a faulty product.

For the price and function, this SSD works just fine (video games). The Silicon Power 1TB was an upgrade from an Intel 512GB, which the Silicon Power is a bit faster in read/write speeds. One negative is the supporting software from Silicon Power is lacking; Intel and Samsung drives have better software toolbox support.

Edit: The screencap form HD Tune shows the problem. I only used the first half of this drive, leaving the rest for expansion and wear levelling. HD Tune shows that the untouched part is fine, but where there is data the read speed is atrocious. Depending on how a test is performed, and where on the disk, a normal speed test might not show anything.—I got this a year ago after a fair amount of research. It’s my primary sytem and apps drive – data and Windows temp are on a cheaper SSD to preserve the volume of writes to this one.Started out excellent. Every speed test was as you see in the other reviews – 3000MB/s more or less, and I was happy. Then, yesterday, a backup which should take 20 mins took over 2 hours. The read speed from this drive was in the KB/s at times! Suspecting a heat issue, I acquired a heatsink and added a fan, and I can see that temperatures of this drive are not 15C lower then yesterday, but the current read speed on a backup is 68MB/s. Same machine, same backup job, a SATA SSD was managing 150MB/s average.A speed test does indeed still show 3000MB/s. The problem is, that seems to be all from cache and once that runs out it’s slower than a spinning disk :(I am here now to source a replacement. The Sandisk SSD mentioned above wouldn’t have been my first choice, but it does look like it’d be a consistent one.

It’s an NVMe drive. They’re all the same as a base level. The difference here is that with actual brands (WD, Samsung, etc.) you have access to software that will help you clone a drive. Be advised that if you have used these on the past, that software is typically an OEM version, so it only works for that brand of drive. There are lots of cloning programs out there that claim to be free. They are not when you’re cloning a drive. If you’re building a system from scratch or starting with a fresh install of an OS, this will be fine. But if you’re replacing or upgrading a system drove by cloning, buy an established brand.

I was hesitant to buy this, reading reviews of SP SSDs were often no the best.I ran Crystal Disk Mark on it, I should have saved the image to put with this, but wasn’t really thinking about this. The numbers were more or less as claimed, I think just a small amount better.It’s in a Dell SFF rig I use for my 7 Days to Die server. I noticed a real improvement in the server initializing a new world, it was a LOT faster than the spinner. Game play from the client was also better.Will it last years, I don’t know, all I know is that so far it is doing pretty well and I’m pleased.

The drive is no longer able to remain stable when writing data. Installations fail, files spontaneously become unreadable. Checking CrystalDiskInfo, the drive has written 4TB of data and read 4.5TB. In total, about 10TB of data overall before the drive began to fail. This is immensely lower than the estimated 250TB of combined reading and writing that the product advertises in its TBW rate. CrystalDiskInfo also shows this drive in the “Caution” category after it performed its disk check. Very disappointed with customer service as I have been going back and forth trying to get them to send a replacement. I would not only let people know to stay away from this hit or miss product, but also make sure that whatever drive is purchased in your futures, is backed by a straight-to-the-point warranty service.

I would give this 5 stars as it was great until it wasn’t. Worked perfectly, then today, it was toast. I it made it a couple of months past the warranty. I would hope storage would last like 5 years at least, but not mine.

Installed windows and it worked fine for an hour. then it just died, tried on multiple rigs and still not getting detected on any bios. other ssds worked in the same slots. It’s a hit or miss with these ones. some last years others a few hours.

I bought the Silicon Power 512GB NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen3x4 2280 TLC SSD (SP512GBP34A60M28) to use as a backup clone of my system. My first criteria for selecting was price. This little devil was just over $50 delivered. Second, it had to be reasonably reliable. The large number of reviews indicated it was. Speed wasn’t really a concern. Ultimately I wanted a backup of my system so if something happened, I could be up and running within a few minutes. I know you can create a system image using Windows and an external HDD or SSD (which I did), but too often, when I go for the restore, after watching the progress bar for at least 45 minutes, I get a restore failure notice (which happened this time also). Luckily, I had a clone of the system that although slightly older than the image backup, booted.Usually I use Acronis to clone drives. I love the fact it will work with different size source and target drives as long as the data will fit. Anyway, I bought the Silicon Power 512GB NVMe M.2 drive to clone my system. It installed as expected and worked without any issues. I noticed a couple of QR codes on the package and read something about free software as a thank you for purchasing their product. I wasn’t expecting much but went ahead and checked out there offer. There were various utility apps but one among them was Echo, a disk cloning app. I thought what the heck, I’ll take a look. I’m glad I did. Their cloning software has so far been what I’ve always wished Acronis would put out. It’s a one trick app that will work with different size drives just like Acronis. It lacks all the extra baggage Acronis comes with and best of all does not install a bunch of services like Acronis does (for it’s backup software). It cloned my m.2 system drive in a matter of minutes. I also tried cloning my m.2 drive to a USB HDD. That took considerably longer, but the system booted from the HDD fairly quickly. For some reason when I’ve cloned an SSD to an HDD using Acronis, the HDD will boot, but it takes forever. Did not have that problem using Echo.Bottom line, the Silicon Power 512GB NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen3x4 2280 TLC SSD (SP512GBP34A60M28) seems to be a good piece of hardware and you can (at least for now) get a nice, simple, straight forward cloning app thrown in, all for just over $50. That’s a pretty sweet deal.

Ich habe mir die NVMe SSD gekauft, um Fotos und Videos abzuspeichern. Mit einem GLOTRENDS Scorpio M.2 NVME auf USB C Gehäuse und einem separaten USB C auf USB C Kabel, schaffe ich ca. 930MB/s lesen und schreiben lt. Disk Speed Test. Am USB 3.0 Port sind 425 MB/s möglich. Ein schneller Rechner mit schnellen Schnittstellen ist natürlich Voraussetzung. Bei USB 2.0 sind es nur müde 25MB/s :-). Ich möchte mir noch ein i-tec MySafe Thunderbolt 3 Gehäuse demnächst testen, an dieser Schnittstelle sollte noch einiges mehr Speed möglich sein.

I purchased this nvme ssd cause of price and noticed in the reviews it wasnt getting advertised speeds, But I still went for the price for performance and installed it on my motherboard and loaded up the tests and my mind was blown with impressive speeds it output. Even transferred a whole 130gb game from another ssd to this one and back and it only took around 25min or less for the whole transfer rather than an hour or two. If you’re looking for a great ssd for price and performance, buy this one.

Targeting the average user… its very hard to give a meaningful review. Talking about Random RW speeds, throughput, etc etc etc… meaningless to the average joe right?”Let me sum it up this way instead. It works very well for me, exactly as designed. The packaging was simple but protective. I have had exactly ZERO issues with it from installation to present day. Based on that, I will endorse this product and if you think its for you, say “give it a whirl”. Life’s short… why not?

I was looking for a SSD that could improve the performance and speed of my Lenovo S 145 with ryzen 3 3500u processor. this laptop was value for money however it had only HDD storage so was very slow. I bought it because it offered ryzen 3 at a very low price. However, I was disappointed by its performance. The booting time was too much and even basic tasks took longer than expected for a CPU like ryzen 3. After realising that actual culprit is HDD storage where the windows is loaded I planned to upgrade my hard disk SSD and install windows into the SSD storage. First I bought Western digital’s green M.2 2280 240 GB SSD which is compatible with both M and B key in the motherboard. That was physically compatible but was not detected and hence operation failed. Then I planed to go with this drive. The good point of this drive is that it is a nvme pci-e compatible which offers a very high read write speed of up to 2200 mbps. This drive is very well supported by Lenovo s145 having ryzen 3 CPU. The performance of the laptop was lifted amazingly. The boot time which was around the two minutes with the HDD drive is now reduced to less than 30 seconds. Anyone of you, if having a laptop with HDD storage only must consider upgrading to SSD which will certainly enhance the performance of any laptop like anything. But cross check which ports your motherboard has and what kind of SSD storage it supports. A SATA SSD deive can easily replace any HDD..

I’ve purchased a lot of SSDs over the years and this one performs very well for a value drive. This is perfect for mainstream desktops as it is fast enough for the far majority of users while offering a good price and write endurance (TLC flash, not QLC). This will work for laptops too but there are more suitable laptop options with lower idle power (if you want to maximize battery life).

I had purchased this to have on hand for any upcoming client needs. many weeks later, I installed in a Dell Optiplex 7090 Microformat. Current BIOS at the time (March 2022). Installed it as the only drive in the PC and rebuilt the PC with a USB drive. I used the Dell image from support.dell.com for this particular service tag. The PC was purchased about three months earlier, and I was replacing the HDD with this SSD. Loaded fine, installed apps, updates, remote access, etc. just a few days later user complained of it being slow and hanging on reboots – just the Windows 10 spinning circle before the desktop loads. I brought it back to my office to watch it for a couple of days. It was running slow, and I did get occasional hangs on boot. So I rebuilt again. USB drive with MS Windows media creation tool. They were installed OK. Downloaded all the most current drivers from Dell support. Seemed fine. Brought it back to the client few days later, they still reported slow and then finally sent me a screenshot of the error. I saw another review about someone having similar issues with an HP. It’s possible that I just got a bad stick. But I’m not going to order again. I’ll stick with Crucial, Corsair, and Samsung.Another side comment – don’t you dislike it when people start reviews with ‘it’s complete garbage’ or similar. So unhelpful.

Bought this to add to my PS5 external storage and it is in the Ineo rugged enclosure. The read/speeds are great. Playing games from it like Destiny 2, you can’t even tell that it is external. When saving my data from PS4 to PS5, took about 20 minutes because of speed over WiFi connection. Load times are faster than from my PS4 and about a second if anything slower than my PS5. Highly recommend. Next will be the 4.0 version once internal storage is unlocked on PS5.

Performance confermate: 3100/3000 grazie al controller di ultima generazione monyato su prodotti ben piu costosi,con ryzen 7 2700x su asus tuf x570-plus. Probabilmente con cpu di 3 generazione o intel si otterrebbe ancora di piu. L unico neo é il surriscaldamento: senza dissipatore arriva oltre i 60 gradi e con quello in dotazione della scheda madre si abbattono circa 10 gradi. E consigliata una ventilazione forzata in prossimita di essa e nel caso lo montiate su x570 occhio a non montarlasullo slot in prossimita del chipset che su queste versionr sono ventilati e getterebbero altra aria calda su di esso. Il mio vecchio hynix pc300 nemmeno sotto stress raggiungeva i50 gradi nudo. Sicuramente incide la mia scheda madre. P.s. ottima la garanzia di 5 anni registrandosi sul sito spAggiornamento: nvme da 1tb si comporta egregiamente e ho acquistato il sata 256 per upgrade su notebook fujitsu economico con i3-2328 (quindi affatto recente) con potenziamento a 8gb ram: eccellente! Lettura oltre i 500 e quasi alla pari la scrittura. Merito delle nuove 3d NAND l avvio e rapidissimo, 6 secondi per il boot. Rispetto al kingston a400 montato qualche settimana fa su un altro notebook di pari categoria, questo molto meglio ( e costa anche qualche eurino in meno). 5 stelle meritatissime

Anche se all’ inizio ero un po dubbioso se prendere un samsung o questo.. mi sono fatto convincere dal fatto che per quasi lo stesso prezzo ho il doppio dello spazio con prestazioni veramente valide, ho dovuto un po combattere col fatto che la scheda madre (asrock x99 extreme 4) non lo riconosceva “e tuttora non lo riconosce” e qualche difficoltà nell installazione di windows 10, ma dopo che sembra il sistema si sia stabilizato le prestazioni come in foto non mi fanno pentire della spesa….per il mometo sono veramente soddisfatto… per il resto il tempo lo dirà…P.S. garanzia 5 anni..

I built a budget Hackintosh for video editing, and I scoured the web for the best deal on a well-rated drive. Obviously this isn’t as popular as crucial or Samsung or WD, so I was a bit skeptical.I can only speak to a few months of use, but it installed easily, was recognized immediately, formatted flawlessly, and OS installed without issue.I’ve used with OSX Mojave for a handful of months, installed much of the Adobe suite (Photoshop, lightroom, premiere, etc), edited photos and videos and it hasn’t let me down. It’s at about 80% full currently.I’d purchase again.

Did not realize it was an “M key only” drive. Fortunately it still fit in the slot in my laptop. UNFORTUNATELY my computer doesn’t “see” it and won’t acknowledge its existence. The SP software won’t detect it either so I can’t partition or format it, thus I can’t use it. Tried to buy an adapter so I could plug it into one of my Linux rigs and format it that way and, lo and behold, nobody makes an adapter for an “M key only” hard drive. So now its growing dust on a shelf because I can’t find the packaging to return it. Total waste of my money and time. Long story, short version: don’t buy it because you won’t be able to use it.

Fabulous turn of speed from this NVMe SSD!!But be aware that these can run warm (which sadly adversely affects their speed!) so budget on getting a good heatsink to surround the board when you buy one of these devices.With these m.2 NVMe SSDs, the larger the storage capacity, the closer they get to their theoretical speed of operation – which shows just how pedestrian HDDs are, and these will even show that ‘normal’ SATA SSDs aren’t all that fast!!

This item was delivered on time and well protected in the (now standard) Prime bubble manila envelope. The recess used to hold the drive in place was a bit too tight for my liking; I had to be very careful not to break it getting it out because the drive is rather thin, though not flimsy.Once removed from the package, it was fairly easy to install on the motherboard and easily initialized and formatted in Disk Management. I then proceeded to ready it to be put into service as the boot drive in my new build computer. I used the free home version of Macrium Reflect drive cloning software to prepare it, and it absorbed my existing OS drive contents flawlessly.Boot time is noticeably quicker, as is response time on the apps I have used so far. The formatted size was, not unexpectedly, a bit shy of 256GB. I have no idea what allows drive manufacturers to overstate drive capacities in what seems to be willy-nilly fashion, but it should not be allowed. This drive formats to 237GB, which places it squarely in the 240GB range rather than 256GB. Nonetheless, I am satisfied so far.

Plattform ist ein MSI B450 Tomahawk Max, Ryzen 5 3600, 16GB 3600Mhz CL18 Vengeance.Leistung: Entspricht den Herstellerangaben, leichte Abweichungen über mehrere Messungen im Toleranzbereich (siehe CDM Screen). Nach Partitionierung waren insgesamt 954GB verfügbar. Der verwendete Controller ist der Phison E12 (siehe HDS Screen). Zur Lebensdauer kann ich nach 250 Betriebsstunden noch nicht viel sagen, die Platte war bei Auslieferung ohne fehlerhafte Sektoren und ist es immer noch.Optik: Wie in der Gallerie hier angegeben.Verpackung: Innenverpackung Plastikschale mit Abdeckung, Aussenverpackung dünner Karton. Stoßsicher verpackt.Fazit: Insgesamt ein auf den ersten Blick gutes Produkt mit einem aktuell sehr gutem Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Reicht nicht ganz an die Topmodelle, aber zu dem Preis erwartet das auch niemand.———————Nach einem Jahr in Betrieb: Die Leistungsdaten bleiben bei mir (und das gut betrieben, jetzt bei fast 8800 Std, über 32500GB gelesen, über 23400GB geschrieben) wie am ersten Tag.Ein hervorragender Kauf. Wenn man sie in der Version bekommt wie ich, hat man vielleicht nicht die beste NVMe die man fürs Spielen bekommen kann, aber die Schreibleistung hier ist herausragend.Als Fazit mach einem Jahr: eine hervorragende Platte auch fürs Spielen zu dem Preis, den ich damals gezahlt habe. Aber die Schreibleistung schafft in der Form keine der Konkurrenten laut verschiedenster Benchmarks (wir reden hier über die Samsung Evo 970 und die WD_Black Reihen – PCIe 3).

For the price, spend $15 more and get a B die high performance M.2 module. This D die module is almost the lowest you can go, even admitted by Silicon Power. I restricted this to store games on as it’s too low end for my massive video transcoding projects. I will be going PCIe 4.0 on my next M.2 drive.

Worked for a bit, then went belly up less than 2 months after buying. The motherboard that I have came with an NVME cooler and thermal pad, but I had to remove the sticker to install it. Sticker is warranty void, so if you want your 5 year warranty, no cooler allowed. Don’t recommend if you value your data, if its all things that you can redownload like games then you can take the gamble if you’re feeling lucky.

How we get warranty, it’s a big question??The performance well in system boot and shutdown too. The specific of read and write speed is varies to 1500/800 instead of 2100/1200.
Matthew R. –
After 2 months the drive stopped booting windows up . Just stuck on windows loading screen. After re installing windows it has now became write protected and can no longer be used . Worst money iv ever spent . Just go get a 2.5 ssd it’s the same speed and way less head ache. Over all 1.2 out of 5.

1. Silicon Power Tools on their website don’t recognize their own SSD. It says “Device not found”. The SSD does not come with a proprietary driver or installation software. All I have is the very old 2006 Microsoft driver 10.0.22000.1 that Windows cannot update. So, there is no way to optimize the Drive or fine tune write/read speeds.2. Silicon Power does not have a specific driver or firmware update for SP512GBP34A60M28. All they have on their website is a generic, non-specific “SSD firmware update software” called “SSD firmware update software_103_Release”… no mention of SP512GBP34A60M28 at all.And they have no driver or installation software.3. I contacted their tech support to ask whether it is safe to update the firmware with the generic, one-firmware-fits-all, “SSD firmware update software_103_Release” on their website or not, as I do not want to take “irreversible” risks. Updating the firmware is irreversible, and using a generic or even a wrong firmware not specific to SP512GBP34A60M28 may ruin the SSD.4. I also need the TBW. Measuring endurance and remaining life is very important to me.5. Silicon Power’s Tech support was shockingly incompetent and non-responsive even with very basic Tech Support questions. I didn’t even bother to ask about the use of 2 out of the 4 PCIe NVMe lanes.6. Twice, they told me to use a 3rd party software that does not give the TBW nor benchmark.Very frustrating.

Ich kontrolliere regelmäßig die SMART Werte meiner Massenspeicher, um deren “Gesundheit” zu checken. Die SSD in der 1TB war mein schnelles Datenlaufwerk. Hierbei habe ich bereits kurz nach dem Einbau der SSD festgestellt, dass der Wearout Indikator (ein Indikator für die Abnutzung) schon nach relativ kurzer Zeit (etwa 2 Monaten) und wenigen Terrabyte written einen vergleichweise hohen Wert von 20% aufgewiesen hat.Eine zeitgleich eingebaute Corsair SSD (Systempartition mit vielen Lese und Schreibzugriffen) hat zum gleichen Zeitpunkt mit deutlich mehr Terrabyte written immer noch einen Wearout Indikator von 0%. Nach 9 Monaten im Einsatz (der Rechner läuft 24/7) zeigt der Wearout Indikator der Silicaon Power SSD 85% an. Zudem wurde die SSD merklich langsamer. Ich habe die SSD ausgetauscht, um Datenverlust zu vermeiden und habe eine rund 60 EUR teurere 1TB SSD eines anderen Herstellers eingebaut. Es klappt jetzt deutlich besser.Kurzfristig OK, langfristig eine sehr teure Alternative, weil die Haltbarkeit echt fraglich ist. Ich werde die SSD beim Hersteller reklamieren, vielleicht ist es ein Einzelfall. Ich hatte jedenfalls noch nie eine so schlechte SSD in der Dauerhaltbarkeit. 3-4 Jahre bei normaler Nutzung würde ich schon erwarten.

Ich hab einfach mal den zahlreichen Bewertungen hier vertraut und wurde nicht enttäuscht. Diese Festplatte ist bisher einfach top. Auch die Messwerte sind wie angegeben vom Hersteller.Achtung: Ich hatte zunächst nach dem Einbau Messwerte die nur etwa halb so schnell waren. (ca. 17000Mb/s)Nach einigem Suchen hab ich meinen eigenen Fehler aber bemerkt und behoben. Also wenn ihr sowas auch mal habt > Ich habe auf dem Mainboard 2 Sockel für M2 Festplatten. Nur eine der beiden unterstützt allerdings auch PCIex 3.0 – der andere Sockel läuft begrenzt auf PCIex 2.0 Geschwindigkeit.

It never reached the speed advertised despite testing it in 2 different mobo’s (B550 chipset). As a matter of fact, 1.52GB/s for read & 1.35GB/s for write is its maximum speed. Maybe the manufacturer should tone down a bit on the advertised speed and aim for something more realistic. Quality wise, it is pretty solid. It’s just the speed is NOT as advertised.

One day after a little over a year the SSD stopped working. I tried different ports but it was death. I had very good references regarding SP but now I will only buy the always recommended brands that have at least more warranty time. Really disappointed that I lost all my PC data.
A geek –
Gave it a try because it was so inexpensive. The first computer I put it into did not detect it at all. The second detected it OK, and it trained to gen3x4 as expected. Linux nvme smart-log indicated it ran hot (in comparison to Samsung Evo). Pointed a fan at it and tested performance using fio. It was good, but then the NVMe SSD died completely. I am returning it and thinking it is too early to trust budget NVMe SSDs. Better to stick with better established makers. I have had no troubles with Samsung Evo.

I purchased five of these for use in brand new Dell 5590 laptops.Of the five drives I’ve ordered, four of them have exhibited intermittent (in some cases) frequent errors in which the laptop says there’s no hard disk present.I’ve performed all available Dell BIOS and driver updates. I have attempted to perform firmware updates on the SSDs, but Silicon Power’s update tool says no newer firmware is available.Safe to say I’m very dissatisfied.

Habe die M2 SSD für ein externes USB 3.1 Gehäuse gekauft. Funktioniert einwandfrei und ist wie erwartet sehr schnell. Wird allerdings relativ warm (trotz Wärmeleitpads im Gehäuse). Dennoch klare Empfehlung. Über Langlebigkeit kann ich noch keine Aussage treffen, da ich die Festplatte erst 6 Monate nutze.

I got 2 x 1T for my ASUS x570 motherboard and they work perfectly. Excellent fit and no problem ordering it. They do not have the spacers or screws in the package, you willl need to get it in your motherboard install kit or at your local computer store. Those little screws are a challenge to install.

Excellent drive, only flaw is the green LED that constantly blinks. Wish i could turn it off, may end up buying a heat sink to try to block the LED.

Bought this as a closed box retail package. It did not come with a spacer nut or a screw. Pretty crooked. I was in luck because I previously bought a WD black m.2 drive which came with TWO of them, for one drive. I guess thats what separates the leaders form the followers. Pretty disappointed from your lack of attention to detail. My final desision to even buy this one was to support Taiwan and you screwed me, or didnt screw me and that was the problem.

Mine are not the QLC variety. Find the old variety while you can because I think they have a longer service life. I have a Sabrent 2TB QLC drve in a computer where amount of possible overwrites isn’t a consideration. Educate yourself on different types of drives and look carefully at the specifications of the drive you buy. I bought a few of the old style Silicon power drives while they are still available.

Plugged up and worked as expected. Just note there is a red light on the card that flashes as it does it’s read / write sequences so you may want to cover it since it is pretty bright. Beyond that it’s a great budget drive.

Dovevo cambiare l’hard disk m.2. del mio notebook perché necessitavo di avere maggiore spazio. Piacevolmente sorpreso anche dalla velocità, molto più alta dell’originale che avevo installato. Non posso dire nulla sull’affidabilità, in quanto questa si misura con il tempo ed ancora è trascorso circa un mese, ma fin’ora va come una seta e non ha mai dato nessun problema. Spero che continui così.

It is as described, and if I be honest its actually faster than my NVME Samsung 960 Evo.

I bought this m.2 stick as one of my first forays into using an SSD on my desktop. I also bout a Standard Sata SSD as well when i bought this stick to upgrade my laptop as well as both computers had standard Sata hard drives. The m.2 stick runs a little faster. Well worth the cost difference from a $28 sata ssd to a $36 m.2 ssd. Now the issue I had as a newbie to m.2 drives was setting this up. I did not see the drive in windows explorer initially. I did see it in the bios. So I had to format the stick first. I was going to clone my spinning hard drive with software. But found that installing Windows 10 and reformatting all my drives was the best solution for me. Still worth it for the speed boost.

Just got 2 of these SSDs for my new Synology DS1821+ NAS. before inserting them in the NAS, I first tested them externally with an unknown NVMe M.2 to USB adapter I had lying around. Running CrystalDiskMark gave me 44-45MBps speeds!!! I panicked and was extremely disappointed and was planning to return them, leave a scathing review and buy more expensive but reliably fast ssds. But a little voice told me change the adapter just in case it was at fault. So, just got in a Sabrent NVMe M.2 to USB3.x adapter today and repeated the test and got the advertised 1GBps speeds sequential read/write speeds stated for the adapter. It is the maximum speed you can get for a 10Gbps USB 3.1 link. To get the 2 GBps (2000 MBps) advertised by these ssds, you’ll need a 20Gbps (USB3.2) or 40Gbps link (USB3.2 Gen 2×2) adapter. I hope these ssds are reliable and don’t lose speeds over time. Timne will tell.

I’m using this as my OS drive currently, and it’s pretty fast. Especially considering the cost, it’s not a bad option at all. Down the line when PCIe 4 nvme’s come out, I’ll be upgrading to that (especially so I can take better advantage of Nvidia’s RTX IO feature on their cards), but for the price I paid, I’m very happy with this drive.

Mir war diese Technologie bis dahin unbekannt. Bei meinem Aufrüstverscuh habe ich jedoch die m.2 NVMe Möglichkeit entdeckt und die Übertragungsgeschwindigkeiten vergleichen. Daher habe ich die vorhandene kleine NVMe Platte durch diese ersetzt und ich darf berichte, dass dieses Modul perfekt arbeitet und beste Ergebnisse erzielt. Auch der BAutraum passte bestens, der Energieverbrauch ist m.E. sogar besser.

Che dire… Spero di aiutare qualcuno con questa recensione.Installato l’ssd , mi preparo installare win 10. Ottimi risultati.Scarico subito crystalmarkinfo e faccio il test. Mi risulta inferiore a 3000 MB sia in scritture che in lettura..stiamo sui 2700 circa.Decido cosi di aggiornare il BIOS,Vedo immediatamente dei risultati in quanto windows si avvia in 5sec, mentre il browser parte immediatamente.Faccio quindi il test con crystalmarkinfo,I risultati li vedete in foto.Dunque con l’aggiornamento del bios si sono visti dei miglioramenti.Il portatile e’ un MSI GS40 Phantom. Ricordatevi che per utilizzare appieno questi ssd e’ necessario avere lo slot M2 4X sulle vostro schede madri.Saluti.

Mittlerweile gibt es ja eine Fülle an M.2 SSDs mit Phison PS5012-E12 und Toshiba Nand Speicherchips. Bei einem Preis von 128 Euro für die 1TB Version habe ich direkt zwei bestellt, viel günstiger kann es nicht mehr werden für 1TB Größen. Ich konnte diese SSD mit einer 1TB Samsung EVO vergleichen, es gibt gefühlt null Unterschied zwischen beiden im Alltag, in Benchmarks ist die Silicon Power mit über 1GB/s im Schreiben sogar etwas schneller, wenn der schnelle Schreibcache überschritten wurde, was nach ca. 20 GB der Fall ist. Die 970 EVO schrieb dann mit um die 950MB/s weiter. Auch in allen anderen Werten ist sie auf Augenhöhe.Und man muss es sich vorstellen, die neue Seagate FireCuda 510 ist Baugleich mit dieser hier, diese kostet heute am Tag der Rezension mit 310 Euro aber über das Doppelte, man bekommt also zwei von denen hier in der 1TB Version, für eine 1TB Seagate! Wie gesagt, diese hier ist Baugleich! Und fünf Jahre Garantie gibt es auch, was will man mehr. Zur Leistung muss ich nichts weiter groß sagen, derzeit High End, nur die Samsung 970 Pro und 970 EVO Plus kann sie schlagen.

Devo dire che ero un pò scettico anche perchè come marchio non e conosciutissimo, ma siccome avevo già un SSD della stessa marca ho provato a vedere se rendesse quanto descritto, devo dire che e ben fatto e rispetto ad altri di marche conosciute e molto più economico e da la stessa resa, lo consiglio per chi decide di velocizzare il sistema della propria macchina ma soprattutto decide di farlo in sicurezza e in qualità. Buon M2 fa il suo dovere lo consiglio.

Aaron Kuhn –
Well, the nvme didn’t come with a screw, so right now I’m just using the clip for the lower PCI slot to kinda hold it in place for now. I’m waiting on another motherboard, so I’m not too worried about the screw as the new board will definitely have them.I’m not aware of any issues with “secret” spyware or malware hidden in the drive. It’s a solid nvme for the price, especially since I’m just using it as a boot drive. The quickness my machine now has is insane. I never thought i’d see a machine this quick. Will update review if I see or experience any changes.

Dopo averlo montato nel mio Mac Pro mid 2012 sono rimasto positivamente sorpreso dall’ssd della SP Silicon Power, perchè raggiunge velocità pari al mio Sansung 970 EVO anche se, a differenza di quest’ultimo che si basa su tecnologia MLC, il Silicon Power è un ssd con tecnologia SLC ( single level channel ). Per chi non lo sapesse esistono gli ssd SLC, MLC, TLC, QLC, i primi sono quelli che a fronte di una velocità teorica più bassa, offrono una maggiore affidabilità e durata. quindi ripeto mi ritengo soddisfatto dell’acquisto anche perché comunque c’è anche un certo risparmio.

I’m a reseller and do computer services. After buying 20 of these over several months and running into 3 bad ones, I’ve determined this particular make and size is just bad news. I buy other SP M.2’s without issue but this SP 512GB NVMe has problems. If you value your data and time, I’d spend a little more and get a name brand unit. I’ve ended up replacing all 3 with WD 500’s – which I’ve never had a problem with. Fortunately, only one of the failures ended up with a customer losing their data! The other 2 we caught before they went out the door.

The storage device worked flawlessly and above my expectations for the price for several months then within a matter of a couple of days it went from instable to unable to boot windows. A complete reformat was attempted and reinstall windows. Drive would not take, had to swap out to a different SSD in order to install windows. I will update this as I go through the RMA procedure. But for now the short lifespan of this drive gives it one star9-7-20 Update: RMA Number was provided, will update upon return of device. Added 1 star since RMA number was provided same day, that’s a good sign.
