Good as in cheap but works well or good as in the best, cost regardless?
EDIT: If it’s the best economy but works well I’ve found UGREEN to work well
$15-20 depending on sales
I just received my Kingston KC2500 and tried it with an Orico RTL9210 based enclosure. It doesn't seem to be able to unmount the drive safely. Got 3 unsafe shutdown recorded in Smart.
are you using it in Windows? are you ejecting it in Windows before removing it? I have the same enclosure and don't have that issue.
Eject - Triggered unsafe count
Shutdown - Triggered unsafe count
Restart - Did not triggerDo have bitlocker enabled, not sure if it affects it.
Eitherway, its directly connected now.
This should have longevity to use as a storage for games right?
Perfect for a games drive as you're only initially writing largish files to it then the rest is as a read device.
Is this a serious question?
Check OP previous comments, they are all seeking same queries 😂😂
Give the guy a break, just got a lot of porn to store safely while requiring quick access times!
what can you say when a mans got 10tb worth of porn lololololooo
You're willing to spend a thousand bucks to store your porn on SSDs??
Yes, look at that other OzBargain deal for a 16TB drive. Buy 10 so you can download it in 4k quality 😜
The higher quality KC2500 is still available for 129 delivered at BPCTech if anyone is interested in that.
Yeh, i would spend the extra to get that. 5 vs 3 yr warranty too.
bazinga!
higher TBW too+True but take TBW and divide it by 3650 (ten years in days) and multiply the number by 1000 to convert it to gigabytes.
In this case (600TBW) it's 160GB per day. General use is 10 to 50GB per day for many users.
So if you read (I believe read is counted?) or write 100GB per day onto your OS drive this drive isn't for you. Same if you copy more than 160GB onto non-system SSD it's not for you.
Double those for the five year figures.
In other words, in terms of endurance this SSD is suitable for most users except those doing large copy operations every day such as video editing.
@Diji1: 250GB – 60TBW
500GB – 120TBW
1000GB – 240TBW
2000GB – 480TBWhttps://www.kingston.com/en/ssd/nv1-nvme-pcie-ssd
I mean KC2500 has higher TBW :)
@Diji1: TBW = Terabyte write, read not counted.
also TBW is a figure for warranty, and does not exactly represent durability, some manufacturer put the TBW figure very high to lure customer to buy their drive imply the quality is really good, and since most customer won't write so much, warranty cost wouldn't be too high.
Back in April/May when Chia Crypto was popular lots of drive were found to have too high of a TBW figure.
Other than the faster speeds, what other gains am I expecting to have? I'm in the market for an SSD but I'm unsure which one to get. :S
Longer life. KC2500 1TB – 600TBW, NV1 1TB – 240TBW
Its not just "faster", once the cache are exhausted in QLC drive it will slow to a crawl (slower than spinning disks, or may even hang), and the cache size gets smaller as the drive fills. So while you might not see much of a performance hit at the beginning, but once you fill to 80-90%, you will exhaust the cache much more easily.
The price difference is so small, might as well get the better ones.
Free shipping too
Can you use this for NVMe slots for an ATX size motherboard?
???? What.
You have the right size M.2 slots or ya don't.
You mean PCIe? Because you can get an adaptor for that.
Otherwise check your motherboard specs. All motherboards should have at least 1 NVMe m.2 slot, some have multiple.If your PC is Skylake/6th gen and newer, chances are it will support NVME drives. It will either have a native m2 nvme port, or can use an pcie adaptor.
Mobos differ, ATX is just a size standard, it depends on the generation of board and model/make.
Read your manual is the answer.
In particular you’re looking for an nvme drive slot that is 80mm long (form factor is 2280 = 22mm wide x 80mm long)
post cost kills this deal
This deal isn't really that 'cheap', its $118.15 delivered via Futu Online ebay store after using PLMS15 at the checkout. With express postage and no 'remote' delivery fees for those in remote areas etc.
Not the same, it is not KC2500.
The one is only selling for 120 @Amazon AU
Not the same, it is not KC2500.
Huh? They are both Kingston NV1 SNVS/1000G units……
Sorry, thought this was the KC2500 deal page.
I might have purchased this, the 2tb is only $ 239.95 but too late already ordered the samsung for $285
which Samsung? can you please link?
My computer doesn't have m.2, (or pcie 3, for that matter). Will a generic brand from ebay work, or should I buy a branded one? https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/193141743583?hash=item2cf8251fdf…
PCIe->M.2 adapters like that are purely passive, so a generic one should be just as good as a name-brand one as long as the generic one works at all. It's possible that a generic one might have iffy design that a name-brand adapter wouldn't that would cause bad performance, but I'd rate that as unlikely.
I'd go for a cheap generic adapter like that if I needed one.
If your motherboard doesn't have m.2 nor PCIe gen 3 support, then there is a good chance it won't boot from that PCIe gen 2 x4 slot. So, there is a good chance you won't be able to use it as the system / OS SSD.
Just get a SATA SSD, chances are you will not notice the difference. There is a chance that you cannot boot from a PCIE to nvme adaptor.
How does this compare to Samsung ?
no match for Samsung
What’s a good usb c enclosure to use with this?
