SABRENT Rocket 2230 NVMe 4.0 1TB High Performance PCIe 4.0 M.2 2230 SSD [SB-2130-1TB]

Got this one today and installed it into my Steam Deck, really happy with the speed because I can already tell my deck is running faster than it was with the original hard drive (256gb) Shipping was a nightmare as usual when dealing with fedex and it requires a signature so be prepared to wait by the door for 6 hours a day for around 3-5 days depending on how many times they delay your delivery. I can see the price is now up by over 100$ for this drive which really makes me happy I preordered mine for the lower cost.

The packaging of this product is really good. The first shipment was lost so they shipped me a second one. It comes in a compact metal box, which is not much bigger than the SSD itself. Very well protected for shipping. The overall performance of the SSD is excellent, but I would expect it for the price it comes in and the brand. It will be a spare one for me at this time since I already have another M.2 SSD installed on my lenovo. Initial tests indicate its high performance. Overall love it. PS I have a mini-PC and will install it there soon.

Worked like a charm with the steam deck. Price was pretty high but at half price seems like a fairly good deal.

This not only is a spec monster in performance but its also such a beautiful piece of tech. Comes in a rose gold case thats super nice looking. Performance has been outstanding on my 1TB chip. My read and write speeds have doubled and notice a significant difference in load times while maintaining proper battery life. It was super hard to install but you play as you go and the brain figures it out. Deckready on youtube is a great person to follow while you do it. Not only was this ssd made for the steamdeck by a great company but it also performs just as good as any top preforming ssd on the market, if not the best preforming!. You might pay 20-40 dollars more for a new ssd like this but in my opinion its worth it. You dont have to deal with any secondary used market issues and you know what your getting straight from the factory. Sure you could pick up a used/new_other BC711 or PM991A ssd (which are also top performers) for around 125 on ebay but I didnt want to deal with the potential problems and stressors of having something go wrong with a pulled out and used ssd. If you share half my views, this is your item, right here!

Not a fan of how the seller operates but the SSD is legit, not as snappy as original 512gb but if u want more space great selection.

bought for Alienware m18r1 . Alienware manual says max is 512gb per slot? so I went bigger? easy to install. worked as advertised. widows recognized and installed with no problem. Full drive amount works great with steam! win win! ordered another one..lol great transfer speeds also..

Deck has 1TB ssd now. Reimagine process took longer than the actual physical install. I didn’t have a setup to clone the SSDs. Don’t freak when the Deck boots up from the reimage. Only my touchscreen was working. None of the buttons worked before an update occurred. After the reimage, an update occurre, everything worked! Time will tell how much faster the SSD is. I think I’m limited by the deck’s SSD bus.

I ordered it 1 TB for my steam deck, very good for speed and price

Bought this to upgrade internal storage on the lowest cost steam deck. Installation was a breeze, and after following instructions to re-flash the OS, had 1TB of storage. Easy install, just be careful when removing the battery cable to not short out whatever tool youre using against the motherboard. I would suggest using something plastic with a sharp, thin tip to ease out the battery plug.

Works great and a very nice upgrade from the 64gb i had
