What owners and reviewers say

Summarised from 3 source(s), reviewed September 13, 2026. A source is counted only where it names this model exactly. How we track prices

Commonly praised

  • Strong all-around performance, power efficient, with an optional heatsink and a 4TB option.
  • Delivers strong read performance in common benchmarks.
  • Owners report very fast Gen4 read and write speeds close to the rated figures and a clear upgrade from SATA or Gen3 drives.
  • Several owners highlight good value, a five-year warranty, and compatibility with desktops and the PlayStation 5.
  • Owners say it runs cool on a motherboard heatsink and performs consistently.

Commonly criticised

  • A bit pricey, with inconsistent sustained performance and a dual-sided design.
  • Falls significantly short in write-heavy workloads and boot scenarios, where sustained write performance takes a substantial hit.
  • Difficult to recommend for serious content creation at its price.
  • The recurring complaint is the vendor's storage-management software, which owners describe as slow, buggy, and unable to update firmware reliably.
  • Some owners report the drive falls short of its advertised read speed, and that the version without a heatsink runs hot under load.
