Silicon Power 2TB NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen3x4 2280 SSD R/W up to 3,400/3,000MB/s (SU002TBP34A80M28AB)

There are two kinds of users when it comes to SSD storage. Those who have lost data and those who will lose data. I have moved from will, to have. Initially a few bad clusters started showing up then more and more with each use. I cannot trust this drive

Update:: 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

This drive has been through a lot in my system, and still working like a champ. I have been through 2 different motherboards, and 3 different processors (upgrades) with this drive, and it hasnt let me down yet. Ive had it in a system with an Intel i7-8700k, a Ryzen 9 3900x, and a Ryzen 7 5800x. Only reason this will come out of the system now is when I upgrade to the PCIe 4.0 2TB model of it.

Grate value for 512 GB NVMe module.

What a disappointment! The listing clearly says w/DRAM cache. It doesnt have it. The drive I received, with part number ending in AB, is not the same drive as the one well reviewed at various websites like Tomshardware. Those drives use Phiseon controllers and have DRAM, one chip per side. What I got uses the budget Realtek controller and has no DRAM. Be careful, the part number ending in AB is indeed mentioned in the product details, so technically you receive what you ordered. However the listing of the title and all the info/reviews out there Re for a different drive, which only has the same name, A80. Its insincere to say the least. Avoid.

Compré este ssd nvme porque anteriormente ya había comprado varios satas para unas pc viejitas que tuve. Armé una pc para un amigo y decidimos optar por este modelo de gen 3 por su relación rendimiento precio. Y como en las compras anteriores, SP no decepciona sino sorprende por su calidad y precio. Para la próxima compraré unos dos más, quiero probarlos en configuración raid.

Popped it into an Eluktronics W650KKL (a Clevo laptop), it was recognized and worked well on Windows for a few days until the laptop would blue screen during gaming or just normal use. It came with a 5-year warranty which I did not take the chance to make good on so Im not sure whether to recommend against the product or not. My bet is that its not worth it. Look elsewhere.

Okay ... So I am changing my review of the item to four stars ... and Ill explain why. So I my initial post was about how this particular SSD had a series of issues when I installed it in my laptop. Especially sticking when the machine has to reboot. However ... I didnt realise that the laptop a Dell Inspiron 14 5485 ... had a MAJOR bios update ... and when that was done (having to use the original drive on the laptop), then this new drive began to work. Its been two days and so far all is well. So Id recommend it ... just be weary when installing ... check to make sure your machine bios is up to date.

Getting advertised speeds after configuring bios and expansion card setup correctly. Used this on an Asus B550f gaming, non-wifi mobo inside a riitop m.2 expansion adapter. Only got 826MB/s R/W.. I had a wifi card in my bottom x1 slot, turns out on that mobo if you populate any of the x1 slots the x16_2 slot goes down x1 speeds. After I removed that WiFi card and forced gen3 on x16_2 I was off to the races. Well see how long it lasts!

Been 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.
