Greater than one weekFast as lightning. The fastest nvme drive I have ever had. I work for a managed service provider so I have used alot in the past.

> 3 dayI’m a commercial photographer. Instead of buying pre-made external drives on which to save my various shoots, I buy SSDs and cases and make my own. On a recent shoot, I had two homemade SSDs — for my client and one for me. When I transferred the images (250GB) to each drive from my laptop, the Hynix transferred about 40-50% faster than my other SSD. I would vow to replace the older Hynix in my Dell laptop with one of these, but really want 2TB instead of the 1TB it currently uses.

> 3 dayFast as heck, cheap as heck (buy two, why not?) and with decent backups who cares how long it lasts? But my last one has been 2.5 years and going strong.

> 3 dayPut this 2TB SK hynix M.2 NVM3 SSD into a external Orico SSD clear enclosure. Used Win10 disk manager to format with exFat. Using a budget Dere/Daysky V14S notebook and a powered USB 3.0 hub, I plugged this into a adjacent port with a Adata SE900G. Copied a 32GB video file from the Adata to the SK hynix. One word: Fast! Much, much faster than a with a cheap generic external SSD I tried before that would take 55 minutes and could only achieve 20MB/s write speed. But I was able to write the same 32GB file to this SK hynix in only 1.5 minutes at 308MB/s! Amazing! Highly recommended, thats for sure. But must use a powered hub when configured externally in a USB enclosure for max performance.

> 3 dayI put this in a external SSD howsing and connected with USB 3. I discovered you cant update the Firmware if the SSD is external, the only way is to plug it into a mother board.

> 3 dayThe PCB is bented! Those chips are soldered with very small tolerances and when the PCB is bent like that there is risk in short life of the solderjoins resulting in a dead drive. This picture was taken BEFORE the drive was installed and there were no sign of the package had been opened so it seems SK Hynix are having som production issues, very worrying!

> 3 dayYou must Overprovision this drive to get the fastest speed. You must use Windows Disk Management since the SK Hynix Drive Manager does not have this provision. Go in there, right click on the boot partition (if were talking about the boot drive) and click Shrink Volume (after this, it will show that amount as Unallocated). Im using almost 30%-more is better, but it will take away from your usable space. Sorry, this must be done as soon as you get this drive as possible (FOB-fresh out of the box) so the memory cells dont get locked/become unmovable. I tried it all already-just do it.
