A low price in recent times on this previously popular M.2 2230 sized SSD that's perfect for upgrading the storage in handhelds including the Steam Deck and ASUS ROG Ally. Get in quick as there's only 28 left at the time of posting.

This is compatible with other devices that only accept 2230 sized SSDs including Surface Pro 9, X, Surface Laptop 3, 4, Laptop Go and more. Since this is a Gen4 SSD you shouldn't use it with the Surface Pro 8 and Surface Pro 7+ due to stability issues. Both of these have no issues with Gen3 SSDs. It can be used with various M.2 2230 USB-C enclosures found on Ali too.

This one offers a sequential read up to 5150 MB/s, sequential write up to 4850 MB/s and uses Toshiba BiCS5 112l or SanDisk TLC flash. Unfortunately 2230 sized SSDs don't have DRAM cache, but this one uses pSLC cache and HMB to make up for it so it's perfectly fine for gaming. Especially when a lot of other similar SSDs are QLC.

  Bought one of these for my surface laptop 7. Works great, now just need to find an enclosure for the old 256gb.

        I got too excited and didn't scroll past my last deal. I already have 3 2230 SSDs and still need plenty more. One day I'll actually own a Steam Deck :P

          @Clear: You need a lego :)

          Let me get neg voted now haha

          I have one of these ssds in my lego atm as the 4tb 2280 just kept giving crap performance and blue screens continous

          Temps and performance have been great but need another one of these to put some of the games i had to delete on the existing 2tb so will pull the plug once the price is right.

          Already have one of those small 2230 ssd enclosures so just need this ssd.

          Thanks for always posting these deals

  Be warned that you might receive one that doesn't work as in DOA. Happened to me on the other listing although not the same seller. Few others had the same issue.
