> 3 dayUpdate:: my year old laptop nvme still doing great, have built multiple new pc with these and never seen one fail. If you have a heat sync it does very good but if not it’s fine, my intel 660p gets much hotter. The pic says it all... using crystal disk I took info as well. I idle at 28c during the hottest part of the stress test we hit 65c for only a second then 60,54,49,45,40,36,30,28. Extremely fast temp changes only was at max few seconds and this was still under 70. Will update if longevity holds but so far so good. Be sure to verify your board can support nvme if running a sata speed m2. If you have not tried NVMe and have a m2 slot I don’t know what else your waiting for. Prices are hovering at same price as m2sata for m2 nvme. Works great on my dell g5 laptop

> 3 dayInstalled the Silicon Power NVMe SSD on a Dell Inspiron 3180 Laptop to replace the 32GB eMMC. The budget laptop recognize the SSD immediately. I was able to install Windows 10 on it. Great product for such upgrade.

Greater than one weekBeen using this as my OS and gaming drive since last year, and havent had any issues whatsoever. Sure, there are better quality Gen3 NVMe drives, but Im not about to pay an extra 40+ USD on them when, for my use case, I wont even notice a performance difference. If youre needing a new 2TB Gen3 NVMe with DRAM, this is the only one I trust in the 90-110 USD range.

> 3 dayso far so good. Dont really see a speed difference from the stock Apple drive but havent tried anything. At the very least, Ive doubled my storage space.

Greater than one weekI purchased 6 of the 1tb p34a80 model NVMEs. I put all 6 drives into a pool of 3x 2-way mirrors. R/W performance was on par with the advertisements, I wasnt expecting to surpass those speeds with the pool as the PCIe riser card nor my motherboard support bifurcation to take full advantage of the PCIe lanes available to the card. Note that even in a pool of 6 drives, the speed transferring files tanks after the cache has filled on these drives. These drives were close to being a 5 star product. One of the drives starting propagating read errors less than 24 hours after installing. Amazon is replacing the drive. Will update how the replacement does over time

> 3 dayI just spend couple of days installing this SSD. It took couple of days not because of this SSD but because I had to move stuff off the spinning metal. Working with SP SSD was a pleasure and easy. My motherboard required firmware update and a PCIe M.2 adapter to make this work as it is older board. But with the adapter at around $12. It was no big deal. Most CPU only support x16 PCIe lanes. This is a x4 PCIe card. On my board, it splits the PCIe into 2- x8 lanes. So my R9 290X loses x8 PCIe lanes. Based on other testers review, the lose isnt much. If you are not getting something not close to this, your hardware is the problem. Excellent SSD performance. Cant wait to get few more.

> 3 dayI got this NVMe drive for a budget PC build and it did not disappoint. Its super affordable for the capacity and is great as an OS drive and programs if you dont need to take advantage of PCIe 4.0 or 5.0 speeds as it its PCIe 3.0. That its super inexpensive (at the time of this review) and has DRAM cache is fantastic! Would absolutely buy again for another PC build.
