256GB M.2 NVMe Internal SSD

Bought it on sale, it is slight used probably just loaded with Windows image out of factor and then wiped. It has 100GB data written to it which is tiny and not anything to worry about. Put it in a USB to NVME enclosure and it is a good fast 256GB USB thumbdrive, far better than the flimsy USB sticks. As-ssd benchmark measures 957MB/s read and 884MB/s write sequentially, 46MB/s read and 86MB/s 4k random. Very fast for a USB thumbdrive. For enclosure I bought XT-INTE USB NVME enclosure from Aliexpress in 2242 form factor, which is very compact.

I ended up with the Samsung PM991, which I very happy about (YMMV). Always great value, simple click & collect from PB Tech.

Got this and another during the Winter sale and have started using them as spare storage using very cheap M.2 NVMe to PCI-E adapters from elsewhere. Got this and another during the Winter sale and have started using them as spare storage using very cheap M.2 NVMe to PCI-E adapters from elsewhere.

Purchased while on sale, really cant beat that. Drives themselves were nothing special, but still relatively reputable brands. Purchased while on sale, really cant beat that. Drives themselves were nothing special, but still relatively reputable brands.

Got one of these for my laptop and it works great! It came unformatted in an antistatic bag, and ran a test on it which performed just as expected. Really great value for the price especially if you get it on sale. Got one of these for my laptop and it works great!

This ssd works great, bought it cos of the low low price but it came almost completely filled up? so I just had to reformat it, erasing all the data. Otherwise, would recommend for a cheap and easy storage top up!

If you find that this m.2 drive is read only and you cant format it follow this link https://www.diskpart.com/articles/ssd-read-only-mode-7201.html#H2-1 it worked for me. Apart from that great little drive to store music on and use in the car. Plus fantastic delivery time from PB Guys and Gals If you find that this m.2 drive is read only and you cant format it follow this link https://www.diskpart.com/articles/ssd-read-only-mode-7201.html#H2-1 it worked for me.
