Pros & Cons
Pros
The product is fantastic, be sure to run it on a high end machine to see the results. The 5 year warranty tells you they stand behind their products as well. Personally tested and benchmarked. Even then, you know enthusiast-grade hynix products aren't... Read More
Sk hynix is one of the best nvme ssds you can buy. They are up there with samsung as far as chip making goes. Compared to my saumsung and wd black drives, this one is nearly twice as fast on some of the benchmarks.
It's the motherboard mfg's that provide it. Some reviews say this runs a bit hot, and it doesn't come with a heatsink. Make sure to read your motherboard guide on adding an extra thermal pad.
Package includes securely packed m. Physically placed this ssd drive into an m.
Gen 4 drive runs hotter than the gen 3 drive. Also, i'm happy this is a single-sided nvme as my older gen 3 drives were double-sided. There was no issue with going from gen 3 raid 0 to mixed gen 4 + gen 3 non-raid nvmes on this board's so-dimm slot.
Cons
No firmware or other updates available for this platinum model. After explaining the problem and requesting where any support could be found, their response was we just sell, sk hynix has no support.
Highlights
Quality
Good quality ssd works as it should fast speeds really nothing to complain about
Use the same product in my other computer, very dependable storage, will buy again
I already met an over heat situation after 1 month usage…
Asus 790h, first slot avoiding the board controller with 64gb ram and 13,700k, returned upper mid class clocks across the board.
Price
Best buy for the money super quick.
I bought this on a great deal, too!
I got this 2tb ssd for $120 on a prime deal.
Just now ordered the 2tb for $134.
Shipping
They emailed me requesting my amazon purchase id a few days ago, and i responded a few minutes after and have not heard anything since.
Packaging/appearance
I appreciated the minimal packaging using recycled materials, too.
Good packaging, easy install, and works great!
Competitiveness
Superior read write speeds to its competitors.
Compared to the major brand ssd's it is a great choice at most affordable price!
And solidigm p44 has even a little better read scores which has basically the same features.
Not overpriced compared to samsung (both from korea) the only downside is that runs hot (not a concern on my end though).
