  • That things looks so good!

  • Got a 1TB version and it works well. One of the best things is the amazing TBW

  • TBW is shocking.

    Not a error?

    • It's really good, no? The Samsung 990 Pro is 1200TBW, but looks like not an error from Gigabytes website

  • This is more like it, I have 512Gb in the Desktop for a year now and it's lovely.

    Decent option for ps5?

    • Been using this for 2 years now so far so good

    • +1

      Used it with my PS5 since the first day the update for internal storage expansion came out, hasn't skipped a beat and haven't noticed any issues.

  • Cheaper shipping by $1 on PcByte

    • I posted that deal days ago and mod delisted it claiming insufficient stock. Also $10 shipping from them to some areas too

  • I know little to nothing about NVMe drives. Is this a good one?

    • +1

      Got one myself, it is decent, being using this as my boot drive, heat-sink is massive though you might not be able to install it under your graphics card but it is removable.

      • Sounds good. Might get one to swap as my boot drive and actually be able to install games on it. Currently running an MX500 1TB.

    • +1

      I have the non heatsink model as my motherboard has one already and it’s been great, waiting for the 4tb price to come down to buy a mass storage drive

      • Looking at benchmarks and the WD Black seems to be doing the best. Much of a muchness?

        • +1

          The black is a little faster, but this has a higher TBW for warranty which is nice if using for moving large files regularly. It’s close enough that Id go for whatever is cheaper, they’re both good models and faster than software is optimised for at present - the top end drives are all getting so fast that the differences in real world use can be tenths of a second in load or file copy times

    Heatsink looks nice but can it be run with mobo heatsink instead or does it require the beefy boy? Might get for my second m2

    • +1

      Just my opinion, but what's more important is air flowing over the heatsink, and the case fan position.

      In one of my cases I replaced the mobo heatsink with a heatsink fin and a tiny fan onto my NVMe. The location is next to the CPU and I think the CPU fan was hogging all the airflow. The NVMe went from 80degrees (mobo heatsink) to 60degrees (heatsink fin + dedicated fan).

      Fan is a noctua 40mm one.

  • Have one of these as my boot drive only has windows and couple of games on it used once a day and after 2 - 3 years starting to get BSOD so not cant use it for gaming or windows

    • are you sure it's the SSD causing the bluescreens? after 2-3 years there are a lot of possible culprits.

      i'd suggest you start with a fresh install of windows and see if the problem persists

      • Yes did fresh install only windows still BSOD then used it as a secondary drive for gaming got BSOD while using that game so the drive had bad sectors on it.

        • +1

          That doesn't mean anything is wrong with the drive - you need to use something like HDSentinel to have a look at the health data and run the full surface test. If everything is showing fine (except the wear indicator won't be 100%) then your problem is probably elsewhere.

          If it has bad sectors you can see them with the right tools.
