Kingston 2048G KC3000 PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD

Para actualizar los discos duros de mi laptop

The read speeds on crystal disk mark are right on for the first pass... On the first pass for write speeds their no better than a Samsung EVO 870 ... Seriously, very, very disappointing.

Ive bought a brand new drive from a local retailer and it had sporadic corruptuion problems from the beginning, system failures until it finally died no more than a month after I bought it.

I purchased this in Feb of 2022. As a longtime Samsung user, I was taking a big risk by changing brands in order to gain what ostensibly was equivalent lifespan and better performance. I was nervous because a family member had previously purchased a Kingston SSD and had it fail. My build was plagued with random pauses from the get-go, but I didnt use it frequently enough to diagnose it. In hindsight that was obviously an SSD issue. 13 months after purchase, windows crashed. After a hard reboot, the SMART data that the BIOS is seeing is telling me the drive is toast. It wont boot at all now. Lesson learned: stick to Samsung. This drive is a steaming pile waiting to die after you put important data on it.

Probably fastest ssd as of today

It works no issues so far

Bought brand new. Installed Windows. Two days later and would not boot. Motherboard couldnt detect it. It died. Ive had many many brands of ssds and this one is the only one that has ever died on me.

These babies are super fast and priced great, has become my favorite drive over Samsung

Seemed OK at first but after 6 months Windows 11 kept claiming its files were corrupt, then it started leaking a black oil like substance and I got FATAL power events in Windows. The third time I re-installed Windows 11 and Linux on it, I realized it was this KC3000 causing the problems. It lasted 10 months but has been somehow damaged since month 5. Back to WD_Black!! DO NOT TOUCH THESE DRIVES! All my pals who bought these in February 2022 have had the same experience with these KC3000 1TB drives.

Its pretty fast. Dont forget to install a heatsink.
