Timetec 512GB SSD NVMe PCIe Gen3x4 8Gb/s M.2 2280 3D NAND QLC High Performance SLC Cache Read Speed Up to 1,900MB/s Internal Solid State Drive for PC Laptop and Desktop (512GB)

When I noticed my motherboard had an empty m.2 NVMe slot, I wanted one with a heatsink and for a price range that wasn't too expensive for me, this was the choice I went with. Checking the temperature, it seems to be between 38-43℃. Wish I upgraded years ago since my prebuilt PC came with a 256 GB SATA SSD and 2 TB HDD. I used to play a lot of games so I would be forced to use my HDD which of course, had very slow boot times and I would experience short freezes every few seconds but wasn't sure why until now. After upgrading to this, everything is a lot faster and smoother. I'm now a fan of Timetec and will consider purchasing from again. :)

Love the 2tb def helps with my ps5 great speeds and can store as many as 70 average games def recommend the 2tb

The drive arrived on time, in good packaging, was was a fast install on my lab Dell which used to have a standard 256gb SSD.This M.2 SSD is noticably faster than the old drive was.

I'm one to encourage smaller brands by buying from them ahead of the bigger, better known ones.Timetec, being a smaller brand, was no exception. The specs for write-read speed, the 1,800 TBW, the DRAM cache etc were comparable to bigger brands: WD, Samsung SN750, Crucial etc. Now, couple that with all the glowing reviews, and I was willing to give this one a try.My hope was really high on Timetec that I, in fact, bought their 3D NAND SATAIII SSD (1TB) as well.Installed the 2TB stick into my Dell Latitude E7470 with no problems. Installed my Windows 10 and booted up the system. Again, no problems. Then, I installed the CrystalDisk info to check for the SSDs health. And that's when things went south.Now, the health status read 98%. Odd, considering the SSD stick is brand new. So, I ran it again. Same thing.I got in touch with customer service. They replied promptly. Said it was indeed strange. I didn't hold this against them. After all, sometimes one slip through the cracks. So I returned it for a replacement.On receipt, I ran the same health check. Again 98%. I said to myself, maybe it's not a big deal. Let's see if the read-write speed is as blistering as advertised.So, rather than a 3,400/3,000 MB/s value, I got readings that were almost HALF that: 1,735.64/1,634.45 MB/s.Now, keep in mind, I mentioned earlier that I'd also bought the SATAIII SSD. Well, this experience prompted my running a health check on it too. Fortunately, it came back 100% good.I wasn't quite ready to give up on this NVME SSD, so I somehow tried to convince myself that perhaps the fault was with my laptop. So, I switched out the Timetec, for another fairly up-and-coming brand Inland by Micro Center. Specifically, Inland Premium NVME 2TB.Installed it. Ran a check. Health status 100% good. Enough to convince me to return this Timetec for a refund.Mailed customer service to share my experience and advised them to do a better across-the-board quality control check on this product.They replied with a courteous apology for my unpleasant experience. I would've given this a 2 star if not for their prompt CS response. That said, you can take your chances with this 2TB SSD. But off the top of my experience, I'd suggest a pass on this one ... for now.Hope this review was helpful.* **************************************************************************************** *UPDATE (12/16/2022): As you can see, I've upgraded the star rating from 3 stars to 5 stars. And here's why.The previous review (which I'll keep up to give you context) was based on the "old logo" Timetec.This is me, now, after purchasing the "New Logo" Timetec.My initial thoughts were: "It'll take more than just window dressing the SSD stick with a new plastered-on logo" to sway me.What's under the hood of this newer iteration? Well, that's what I was about to find out.My previous qualms were twofold:1) The health percentage was under 100%. 98% to be exact.2) Write/Read speeds were less than half of what they advertised.But, since that time, I've taken possession of a Dell Precision 5520, which has two SSD slots: One for SATA III SSD, and the other for M.2 NVME SSD. So, as I browsed through Amazon for a new SSD to slot in, I'd noticed Timetec had updated their logo. And so I said to myself."Hey, why not give it another try?"So glad I did. Trust, I ran a Chrystaldisk info heath check. Came back 100%. Same for the SATAIII SSD. Speed was also close to as advertised. Two thumbs up.Oh, and before I forget, let me add that the average core temp was sub 39 degrees (with a silicone thermal pad).Now I can confidently declare, "go get Timetec."They're an upcoming US based brand with probably one of the best pricing you can find in the market.

Mounting screw not included.

Buen ssd m.2, gran capacidad y velocidad.

PS5 compatible is why I got it, easy to install into the system & now I'm able to havr as many games locally as I want. Yes, the playstation plus account is necessary for most multi-player games now & does come with cloud storage but u still have to have local files & save files i like to have locally too. Has been running & saving great since install. No issues, I'd highly recommend this to anyone with a PS5

Funciona bien da buena velocidad
