Gaming
Makes a very good gaming hard drive. Ambient textures never fail to load, something you can notice after upgrading from slower drives.
Works like a charm!
I don't know how to review an SSD to be honest, but what I can say is that it definitely does the job.
I used this in my first ever build with 1TB HDD, and the storage is great.
I highly recommend this one, it's a budget one, and it works very well.
Great for your first PC.
Cons:
- None after having it for 2 weeks
Works in PS5
I believe the PS5 reported a high read speed than advertised on the box which is a plus.
Used it for a few days now, it's working fine.
great price for future proofing
Have used this NVMe for a month now, very fast and looking forward to next gen components compatibility.
Absolutely great buy
I went with this to help give my apps some boost and it's a big W for me. Thank you!
