PNY CS2130 500GB M.2 PCIe NVMe Gen3 x4 Internal Solid State Drive (SSD), Read up to 3,500 MB/s - M280CS2130-500-RB

I love the capacity, having 4 TB of fast storage is amazing and the lack of sata cables makes building a new rig much easier. id confidently recommend this generic 4 TB m.2 nvme drive to anyone who is requiring more storage and has a free slot open but only if they can find it for less than 450 dollars shipped any more expensive just get a sata 2.5 inch ssd. this is my secondary drive filled with mostly AAA games and mods for fo4. I have some powerful programs and media work being done on this storage device aswell. With that being said i doubt ill recommend it as an OS drive, but for anything else go for it just what that price tag. my 2022 pc build i7 12700k [OC 5.0 all pcore / e core stock] noctua NH-U12A chromax balck.

Muy bueno, la velocidad del equipo mejoro demasiado, todo de acuerdo a lo publicado, instalado en Lenovo T470

I got 465GBs rather than 500GBs, but It was kind of worth. :D

Es un bien productor para las persona que manejamos grande volúmenes de información. Su velocidad de escritura y lectura es muy buena. Y sus temperaturas se maneja muy bien, aún que si puedes ponerle un disipador pasivo no estaría mal.

I have bought this drive ti use in external TB3 enclosure. It works perfectly. Of course you cannot get full speed out of it with external SSD, but still pretty fast!

All my usual retailers were out of stock, or overpriced. Also, it was great to be able to see the country of origin!

I mean its pricey, but its insanely fast and worth it to be honest. Very cool

I bought this for a new PC build. Its running on a Asus ROG Strix B460-H gaming motherboard and a i7-10700KF. I have added two images showing the speeds. One from CrystalDisk and the other UserBenchMark website. Using CrystalDiskInfo i was getting temperatures at 44C. My motherboard has a heat-sink that sits on the top of this.

Very fast and Im happy with my purchase.

I bought this hard drive as secondary storage for my 1-year-old laptop. The system recognized it as a hard drive, but it would not initialize for set up. After reinstalling it twice, I left it alone in the computer, not adding any files. But its presence alone cause my laptop to overheat, sending the fans into overdrive anytime the computer was on for more than three minutes. At first I thought bought the wrong kind of hard drive or that there was something wrong with the computer. I replaced this drive with a SanDisk model of the same type of hard drive. That one worked instantly. I could set up partitions and save files on it right away. So far, the computer is not overheat nor are the fans operating like an airplane propellers. Based on the second hard drive, I think that this PNY hard drive is a dud. Spend more money and get a better brand.
