Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

I am very grateful, these guys are amazing. The warranty is great since it’s from a reliable brand. Also the 5 year warranty is nice.

My startup is super fast and work is always steady with the new driver. Boots very quickly, no issues. Increased speed of pc significantly over spinning hd. Greatly improved my aunt and uncles laptop’s overall speed.

Using as a bootable backup it allows me to boot from other macs using this drive seamlessly. It's easy to install, cloned windows 10. Easy to install with a clone software such as macrium. Can be used to install other oses as well as os x and os10.

The tbw (total bytes written) specification for this drive/capacity is 300tb - same as samsung evo 860 of the same capacity. Bought it to replace a 6 year old 200gb os drive, now i have plenty of space and my operating system works like a charm.

Cons

This is a faulty and misleading advertisement should be investigated for it's legality. Open it up, remove the video card from your computer to access the ssd space and bummer, no screw to mount the ssd.

Quality

So far the ssd is working and i am currently satisfied with the purchase.

It's noticeably different over a regular ssd and overall a good product.

It's a decent deal for a good product.

Greatly improved my aunt and uncles laptop’s overall speed (boot time, no more seeking constantly with the spinning hard drive.

Price

2 is not worth the extra price.

The product is fine to work with my laptop, price also reasonable, recommend worth trying!

Shipping

Great product, i had some issues with shipping but not sure if it was the carriers' fault.

Packaging/appearance

Of course you have to disable the optane raid before starting anything.

Competitiveness

For new pc builders out there: if you're on a budget, get a 250gb ssd and use it as your boot storage.

I would love to see a dual layer 4tb or even a 8tb ssd.

As expected, it filled up quick, but i would still say it's worth it over even a 2tb hdd.

I got a 500gb as my first storage for my gaming pc.
