SABRENT 2TB Rocket Q4 NVMe PCIe 4.0 M.2 2280 Internal SSD Maximum Performance Solid State Drive R/W 4800/3600 MB/s (SB-RKTQ4-2TB)

WORKS WITH PS5!!!!! Had it in there for about 3-4 months now

Simply amazing. This drive is a example of how fast technology is advancing.

Very easy to install. Best one that I could find with 2tb storage and 4th gen for the money.

Really satisfied with the performance. Speeds are as advertised. The Acronis software thats available on the site made migrating my OS to this new drive pretty much effortless.

This SSD worked great for 10 months using Windows 10 and Windows 11. Then I installed the latest (optional) upgrade for Windows 11. The system destabilized (i.e. blue screen of death) within a half hour of normal operation. I removed the Sabrent SSD, and the computer operated normally after I installed a different SSD, and reinstalled a fresh operating system. Even worse, the system would not reboot if the Sabrent SSD was in any way connected to the computer (internal PCIE or external USB connection). I cleaned the contacts with isopropyl alcohol and still no luck. I tried one more trouble shooting routine before initiating an Amazon return. I booted the computer with a different SSD and attached the malfunctioning Sabrent SSD to the computer using an external USB mounting. The computer did not crash. I removed all partitions on the Sabrent using the Windows format and clean tools, which appear on the screen when a fresh OS installation is selected. Voila!, I reinstalled Windows to the malfunctioning SSD and it worked without a glitch. I cant determine whether the original problem was with the Sabrent SSD, or with the computer (ASRock B550 TAICHI motherboard). I am reporting this in case anyone else has a similar problem with the SSD. The downside, I lost all data on the SSD, with no possibility of direct recovery. Luckily, I have several backup appliances.

If your MB has a heat sink, use it. If not, get a heat sink. They should be more insistent on this, make it more visible or something. NVME (PCIe especially) run HOT. They sell their excellent heat sink separately if you dont purchase this with it already included. I was lucky and discovered this before I installed it, I purchased Sabrent heat sink and it is great! That was the only reason I didnt give it 5 stars.

Great value and capacity for those that need it for the ever growing size of games in 2020 and beyond. This replaced my Samsung 970 EVO 2TB, which was nearly full. Now I don’t have to uninstall a game or two for new games coming later this year. I half expect Cyberpunk 2077 to be close to 200GBs. It’s TBW will not be reached if you’re using this for gaming. By the time this drive has any failures, there will be cheaper and newer technologies on the market. Make sure to pair it with PCI-E gen4 to get the full speed of the drive.
