This is not a high performance SSD, but it will be great as a secondary drive for steam library, that sort of thing.

Here's the only in depth review I have found. Use Chrome to auto translate it from Russian and its fairly readable still: https://3dnews.ru/995006/page-2.html

It's perfectly fine with regular user (i.e. simple) type of workloads e.g. Game loading. And generally performs better than QLC drives in a similar price bracket e.g. Intel 660p. Max speed of 2100MB/s read / 1600MB/s write

If you're budget conscious and wanting 1TB of NVMe read speeds for gaming, this is def one to consider for $129! At $129 it's about right IMO, but it has a limited use case. Write speeds suffer when writing HUGE chunks of files once the SLC fills up (thats not unique to this drive though) e.g. 50GB+ but that's a very niche use case most consumers don't require. Do not get this SSD for video editing and heavy disk workloads. Even if you use this as c:\ i doubt you'd see any noticeable difference in boot times etc with any other pricier SSD.

        Try harder.

          But his fingers would get really sore.

          he could also try less, that would be pleasing

    Nice one

    Durability (TBW) is 500TB for 1TB which is pretty good. The Crucial P1 is only 200TB TBW

      Yep. And if you trust that Russian review, performance is actually fairly decent overall compared to it's budget peers.

      Durability is good, but if you use it for 5 years that's 274Gb per day before you hit that benchmark. Even a low durability drive like the P1 should be fine for most users. I'd be more inclined to go by warranty unless I was doing some serious data transferring. 3 years for this drive is pretty good, but it's 5 years for the P1.

    How would this compare to the average Samsung 860 EVO SATA SSDs?

    • Skramit on 09/12/2019 - 12:56

      Depends on what sort of task.

      Lexar would destroy it in sequential read speeds for large files because of the NVMe interface (up to 2000MB/s) where as SATA3 860 EVO is capped at 600MB/s.

      For mixed read/write type heavy use with multiple applications all trying to use the disk at the same time, the 860 EVO would be better.

      For writing huge files back to disk e.g. video editing the 860 is probably better there too.

      For gaming, general storage, application installs, I would go this Lexar.

    Any good as an upgrade for MacBook Pro SSD (13" Retina, Early 2015)?

    • poporange630 on 09/12/2019 - 14:24

      Theoretically should work with a good adapter. However you may want to be on the safe side by using popular tried models like Samsung.

  • [Deactivated] on 09/12/2019 - 13:25

    Would this be better than stock ssd coming with most laptops like lenovo or Dell?

    • Skramit on 09/12/2019 - 13:29

      Dunno TBH. This is on the low end of NVME…. but has some good advantages over SATA3 SSD's.

      Impossible to say.

    • Danthemanz on 09/12/2019 - 13:31

      Their drive models are fairly random, but as a rule no this would be slower.

      • Skramit on 09/12/2019 - 13:48

        Agreed. I wouldnt be replacing a stock SSD expecting this to be faster.

  • beatsntoons on 09/12/2019 - 13:29

    Thanks OP. Will pair this one with my Samsung 970 1TB Pro as a game drive, cheers!

    Hi

    Does this work with my gigabyte b350 MB?
    I read somewhere that by upgrading to latest BIOS it wont recognise M.2 SSD? Can someone confirm?

      Why would you trust some random to tell you when you can go to the release notes for the BIOS upgrade at the manufacturers website and find out from the horses mouth?

        Probably the same reason people use Ozbargain for legal advice…

    • wheretobuychocettes on 09/12/2019 - 15:49

      Typically BIOS updates increase hardware compatibility, not decrease it.

  • sax on 09/12/2019 - 16:09

    Thank you. Building an unRaid servers and I will be using this as a cache drive.
