Price

For the price point it’s definitely worth it !

For the price this is go no-brainer!

Hard to complain about 1tb of a reputable brand name gen4 nvme for under 50 bucks (sept 2024).

Shipping

Kingston's technical support was extremely quick to respond, plus dedicated and very helpful.

Packaging/appearance

Weirdly enough, although they were all “brand new” in the kingston box i pulled one out that had windows 10 home pre installed.

Competitiveness

2 ssd, its quite fast compared to my other gen3 m.

It just runs a little hotter (52 c) versus the other ssd in the same case (32 c).
