Title: Outstanding Performance (PC User)
Review: I made the mistake of putting a regular HDD in my new computer rig which has an i9-10920X CPU and wondered why my computer was behaving so painfully slow. (Boot up took nearly 30-45 minutes!)Did a bit of research and discovered these SSD M2.0 chips and found they fit my ASUS ROG X-299E motherboard.Purchased this one after a bit of shopping and put a fresh install of Windows 10 on it and WOW!! what a difference. My computer now only takes a matter of seconds to boot up and get into desktop. All applications and games load up within a mouse-click and everything is running faster and smoother.Here I thought RAM and CPU were the two things that make the computer faster and this little chip has proved me wrong.Phenomenal.

Title: This is your (amazon) Pick of Destiny
Review: Before I begin: It’s (very x 3200) good, it’s worth it, arrived quick. – Now onto the review.I didn’t know about NVMe drives until I ended up mid-amazon browse and noticed this “ludicrous” speed hard drive thing.I checked my motherboard and noticed it has two slots for these.Being moderately skeptical, I checked out some of the reviews and apparently this is the real deal.Thus – I bought one and… Well… This is the process:I stuck this magical stick into my computer (on my motherboard the top slots for these has a “thermal guard”)I then proceeded to clone my windows hard drive into this magical stick (there are tools for this online)Then I rebooted my PC and set this magical stick as my boot drive.In 3 seconds after restart I was already on my desktopIn 10 seconds I was already in-game.The speed of these things is staggering!!!P.S. If your motherboard supports NVMe Raid 0 – you can link up these monstrosities to run at twice the speed! I don’t know what horrifying monstrosity of an operating system you need to require that speed, but there we go – it is an option.Other things to note: There are different sockets for these NVMe drives, so be careful and ensure you purchase the correct one.

Title: Main boot drive and I am very happy
Review: I just did a mini refresh on my PC, New motherboard (Strix X570-E, 5600X CPU and this M.2 drive ) and I am very happy. To be fair I had not heard of Addlink before and I was a little sceptical at first, however as I had a budget I was left with the choice of try the Addlink 1TB drive or get more main stream drive ( Sabarent, Samsung etc ) but be limited to 500GB, especially If I wanted to go Pcie x4. To be 100% honest I am very happy with my choice, Windows boots from BIOS POST screen to desktop in around 4 seconds, games load incredibly quickly, and general tasks are much easier. I would easily recommend the drive for someone looking to add some extra storage.

Title: An excellent M.2 NVME SSD, that beats much more expensive models!
Review: There’s not much I can say about this M.2 NVME SSD, apart from that it is excellent – both in terms of performance, as well as in terms of price. I can’t fault it.I’ve just used it in a new build, and it is truly amazing. I’d never used addlink previous, so it was a bit of a risk – but I’ve had good experiences with “no-name” brands out of China in the past – such as Drevo and the like – and so I thought, lets give this a go – with Amazon’s excellent returns policy if it was a dud, then I could quite easily return it for a refund/replacement, so the risk was mitigated.Thankfully, I was not disappointed at all, and the drive is excellent – it performs on par with far more expensive units – and does give me the advertised speeds – 3500 read and 3400 write – multiple times on multiple tests.So yes, highly recommended.

Title: Fantastic value for money.
Review: I’ve previously only used high end Samsung NVMe drives so I thought I’d try these out at half the price. Install wise I knocked a point off because it has the chips on both sides making choosing a cooling block difficult. I had previously used an AquaComputer cooling block on my Samsungs but the clips had no room.Speed wise, they will hit advertised numbers but I have seen instances of where reads are significantly lower than writes and vis versa. Ie one day you bench and you’ll get solid 3.4GBs and the next day you might get a read of 2.7 and a write of 3.3.I’m using in a RAID0 setup and hitting 6 on a Ryzen 3900X on an X470 (Asus Crosshair Vii Hero WiFi)

Title: Here’s results for the 2TB version
Review: I couldn’t find any tech site/channel reviews of the 2TB Addlink S70 so thought i’d post some performance numbers for those interested. My DiskMark results are from version 7, while most other results posted here are from the dated version 5, so they can’t really be compared. Generally, the higher the capacity that an SSD is, the better the performance, and that’s true here with 2TB.This is a cheaper NVMe SSD’s from a company that most people haven’t heard of, and yet you’re getting a drive that easily matches the VERY fastest and more expensive competitors in real world tests. Don’t bother with PCIe 4.0 drives, they might have better synthetic benchmark numbers, but there’s no real world benefit from them yet. This Addlink drive has some of the best real world performance you’ll get right now when it comes to games/software/everyday tasks.I’ve had no issues with this drive so far and i’ve been running it through its paces with tests/benchmarks. installation was easy, same as any other NVMe drive. Highly recommended.

Review: Ich bin ehrlich gesagt total zufrieden. Ich muss gestehen ich merke nicht wirklich einen unterschied ob das System jetzt auf einer SSD oder M.2 Turbo ist aber ich habs gemessen und da ist auf jeden Fall ein Unterschied sichtbar.Aber ich muss auch sagen seit ich die M.2 habe habe ich nicht viel kopiert oder Daten verschoben wie ich das früher öfter gemacht habe, vielleicht würde ich da was merken. Wenn man einen ganzen Terrabite kopieren muss wird das schon auffallen denk ich mal. Und im moment habe ich im in meinem PC alles mögliche, HDD SDD und M.2. Ich plane aber als nächster einen neuen Rig zusammenzustellen und da werd ich mal schauen wie alles nur mit M.2 läuft. Falls genug aussagekräftige Erfahrungen bzw. Daten vorliegen werd ich vielleicht noch was schreiben und euch daran teilhaben lassen =)Bis dahin kann ich mal sagen TOP Produkt! Läuft ohne Probleme, schnelle Lieferung und die Daten so ziemlich wie versprochen.( zumindest die Schreibgeschwindigkeit, Die Lesegeschwindigkeit nicht sie ist fast genauso wie schreibg. = 3029.88 MB/S (siehe Bild)).Für alle die nicht wissen was sie da sehen, es wurde Lesegeschwindigkeit sequentiell und random gemessen und Schreibgeschwindigkeit seq. u. rand.((für alle was interessiert sind darüber über den roten Kästchen steht noch eine ca. 5 Jahre alte SSD wo die seq. Lesegeschwindigkeit gemessen wurde mit 520,96 mb/sec. ein Unterschied ist auf jeden Fall da von M.2 SSD und normaler SSD))Wer sowieso einen Speicher kaufen möchte und Speicherplätze für M.2 frei hat dem empfehle ich sie auf jeden Fall, ausser ihr findet für den Preis andere noch bessere…..schauen kostet nichts sag ich mal
