I needed fast storage for video editing, and I can’t be more happier with this NVMe. Installed it into Asus Hyper m.2 x16 v2 card and it just showed up. No issues with set up.

Needed another SSD for the constant game updates I have had lately. This one checked all the boxes and was the cheapest around. I have used Intel SSDs and never had an issue. Snag if the price is right for you!

The drive is instantaneously recognized by the BIOS/UEFI, and the read/write speed is as expected. I am using it as a boot drive for my Ryzentosh, which works like a charm.

I had to buy an enclosure that connected the SSD to my computer and then clone the existing drive. Worked great and the new hard drive works well.

Purchased this M.2 SSD along with other parts with the purpose of making a photo/video editing machine. I was not disappointed. It cut my processing times in half and saved me hours on video rendering times. I should have bought a second SSD.

Was able to use free utility to move data from smaller SSD to another. Replaced a smaller Samsung 970EVO. No issues and working well after 1 week.

Yes, QLC isnt the best, but if youre on the side of increasing disk space but also maintaining performance, this is probably the best hundred bucks you will spend on your macbook pro 15. You will need an adapter for your macbook but they are relatively inexpensive. Look up sintech. The install requires you to use high sierra as a minimum so that you can use the 4 channels effectively. The first one that got delivered had an issue but the second one that BH photo sent is working like a charm so far for about 2 weeks. The return and exchange process was pretty seamless, just had to wait about another week or so but painless.

Great product with great speeds. Almost no loading times in games. Also has a slightly higher formatted capacity (about 20 GB) than my other 2 TB SSD I have installed. Was a steal of a deal for cyber Monday.

I was building my first video edit pc and was going with Samsung EVO SSD, when I came across a video about Intel NVMe and how it compared to SATA SSD. It seems Intel got the performance and price point correct. I switched and go two, one for the OS and programs, and the second one for the media. While I can’t compare SATA SSD to M.2, I appreciate the silence, and super quick access to data at affordable price.

I wanted this as the exclusive drive on this build. I needed to balance speed & space. I do believe I got that with this Intel 660 M2 drive. It’s hard to wrap my head around having a boot drive or C, this small & solid state. The only thing mechanical or affected by gravity on this build, are the fans which cool everything. This little drive tucks in just over the discrete video card, & just under the chip radiator. I had no problem at all formatting this M2 SSD as the primary drive. It took the information very well, & booted things very quickly, with out any fast booting being enabled. It’s even faster with those features added. Actually, Windows is the slow part. Bench testing this has really shown up how fast this drive is. This build is more for 3D art & modelling software, than it is about games; but it does ultra great on games too. The only thing I see slowing it down are mega gig; spinning (roller coaster) images, & water moving games. Other than that, it serves up the save files very, very fast. Solid state doesn’t need to spin up, & is already there. There are even faster options available to speed file transfer up, to & from this drive & I’ll look into those later on. I imagine it’ll be faster than fast. If I can update the info, I will. 3D picture-illustration software that can bottleneck a system is tamed very well with this drive. Which is why I got it in the first place. You (may) know how huge those files are, & how bloated ultra fine art & games can be; this drive handles them very well I am happy to say. A bit of room to grow. Once you start enjoying your primary drive as being lightning fast, you want everything on it. You get spoiled by that speed, very quickly. So be sure to get this 2 TB (1.86) drive (or larger), so you have some space to put a couple things on there. Installing it was easy. If you’re new to M2 drives, like I was; it goes in on an angle, sticks up, & is put into place by the screw. Just snug it down, don’t moose it in. Depending on your work & air flow, you can add a heat spreader if you’d like. Numbers: 1300 mbs, yeah proly close. Bench testing is was around 13-1500. What that comes out to in the real world is wow, no actuall WOW!! I can have a gig psd file uploaded to the home cloud over 5ghz, in a couple seconds. The slow being the receiving drive writing, or the net. Now, I can’t say how this drive works as an add on or secondary drive, that I would guess to be regulated by the SATA or PCIe device that your M2 drive is plugged in to. I figure that I’ll pick up a few more of these, & replace my discs or mechanical drives & use the big ones as redundant back up storage; because I’m sure they are at least super fast configured that way. Bottom line. If you’re looking at M2 drives, this one comes in budget friendlier than many others. First time I didn’t build using the other guys. Speed, space & price is what put this in the cart. It’s what will put other ones’ in there as well. Remember: Don’t defrag an SSD! I don’t know if you have to reformat them every so many years to keep them fresh, like you had to with SD cards. I haven’t had to refresh too many of my SD cards & thumb drives of late.

It’s fast, getting 1,700 mb/s on read/wirte on LG gram 17. I purchased Samsung Evo 860 direct from Samsung thinking it’ll get me 2,000 mb/s or higher, but turned out it’s around 1,800 mb/s. Pretty much the same speed as this one, but $50 more…. It does get hot as other MVMe PCI SSD, but not to the point where you cannot touch. There is no thermal throttle I can experience. So my LG Gram has 2 – 1TB SSD, and to copy 1GB of data, it took 2 seconds. If you have Sandisk USB 3.0 SSD (either with SATA version or NVMe version), you’ll appreciate the speed of coyping huge picture/video files with this SSD.
