Pros & Cons
Pros
Very fast and at a comparatively good price. Test result numbers are as advertised with my setup. True to it’s claim of sequential read/write, on a 14700k asrock mobo with 48gb memory.
One thing that i think most people overlook is the fact that your os drive can take advantage of momentum cache through the crucial storage executive software. It now takes my computer longer to post the bios than loading windows. I was able to clone ... Read More
This thing is awesome! Pretty happy with it.
Cons
Didnt show in bios on inital boot on rog strix z790-e. Rebooted the pc with same issue. On diskpart the drive shows up invalid.
Huge disappointment. Heat sink is totally inadequate. Performance throttles after about 20 minutes to be worse than my sata spinning drive. Under load, peaks over 85c and throttles down.
Crucial's bitlocker encryption destroys the performance of this drive. I'm not sure if this is an issue with the drive or my heatsink, but i only get 6600mbps read speeds, and 2300 write speeds. If you need a gen 5 drive go with a different brand.
Highlights
Quality
This thing works exactly as advertised and pairs perfectly with my msi z790 motherboard.
Excellent boot drive for my new build
0 drives and they seem to last forever
The drive shut down after about 20 seconds, which i believe to be the temperature high limit was tripped.
Price
Exactly whats needed for next gen, if can get on sale.
Very fast and at a comparatively good price.
Good price for a very fast drive!
At 6400 and being gen 5 simms these are a total bargain.
Shipping
Amazon was awesome on the phone, creating a return and expediting a replacement overnight.
