Title: Works in the legion Go
Review: Bought this for the legion Go as the “official” drives just aren’t available, at least for a decent price (and I don’t consider £350 for 2tb a decent price!!)At the time of buying this was £180 and another £6 for the adapter to make it fit in the Legion Go.Had this in for a few days now and it’s been a breeze. 1.9tb of space instead of 400gb with the original drive.This drive does seem to be higher performing as well with better read and write speed over the original.Cloning was an easy and so was installing it. Not encountered any issues or crashing thus far. Time will tell though as 3-4 weeks seems to be the questionable time. If you make it past that your golden. Thankfully it came from Amazon so any issues can be quickly resolvedAll told it was (thus far) worth the price, and I don’t expect any issues. I’ve also got a 1tb integral micro ssd in the Go to give me 3rb of space!

Title: Quick SSD, seems reliable, easy to install on Raspberry Pi 5
Review:  Added this to an NVME hat on a Raspberry Pi 5.Recognised straight away, easy to install the Pi OS onto this (boot from a microSD first, then use Imager in Raspberry Pi OS to image onto this SSD, and change primary boot device to be the SSD).Boot time is really fast (see video). Everything runs quicker than I’ve ever seen on a Pi, so very happy with this SSD for about £23, from a manufacturer I’ve actually heard of.

Title: Perfect Storage Upgrade for Raspberry Pi 5
Review: This 256GB Integral M.2 NVMe drive is the best value I found for my Raspberry Pi 5. It’s super fast, reliable (running 24/7 for weeks with no issues), and perfect for my home server needs. Highly recommend it if you’re looking for an affordable, high-performance storage upgrade.

Title: Hassle-free Surface Pro upgrade
Review: I purchased my Surface Pro 8 with its measly 256GB hard drive some time ago. At that time, it was not feasible to upgrade the drive as there were hardly any m2. 2230 SSDs available, and the one or two that could be found were extortionately expensive. Although still more expensive than SSDs with more widely used form factors, these are now more reasonably priced and affordable, and I accordingly decided to make the upgrade. Upon conducting some prior research on this subject, I was aghast to come across so many reports of heat problems, incompatibilities, malfunctions, etc. which obviously raised concerns about my proceeding with the upgrade. However, I did notice that all the reported issues related to Gen4 SSDs, and reasoned that Gen3 SSDs could conceivably be less likely to have compatibility issues. I therefore decided to take the plunge with the Gen3 version of this Integral SSD. This arrived the next day, and, in my impatience to get things going, I installed the new SSD just as it was, without the cradle that came with the original drive, nor with any thermal paste or pads, reasoning that I could always utilise these later if required. Replacement took less than 2 minutes. Installation of Windows 11 with a recovery drive took a bit longer, but everything proceeded remarkably smoothly without any issues whatsoever. I have now been using the Surface Pro almost constantly for three days since the upgrade, and am delighted to report that I have had no heat or malfunction issues whatsoever. This little Integral gem has been performing brilliantly, and the Surface Pro is no warmer than it was with the old drive. It would seem that Gen3 is the way to go for those wishing to upgrade older Surface Pros. Using a Gen3 SSD instead of Gen4 meant sacrificing some performance, but losing some speed which I doubt that I would even notice, is well worth the price to pay for hassle-free performance … and I didn’t even need to go back for thermal paste.

Title: A bit lower storage than the majority
Review: Good drive works well but capacity is quite small for a 1tb drive with only 916gb compared to the Corsair in my Rog ally which has 964gb

Title: Nicely secure in transit, easy install.
Review: Easy install and recognisers by windows nicely once assigned and formatted.Son says it seems very fast and as fast as the system SSD drive he already has.Note: no mounting screws come with this drive so check you have one in your motherboard already.This was an additional drive for us and not replacing the system drive.

Title: Great value, works great in Surface Laptop 3
Review: nabbed a refurbished Surface Laptop 3 and checked the disk it came with – it appeared healthy but was maxing out at 800MB/s read and 380MB/s write, and hitting temperatures of 72C which is really poor for an NVME disk. Swapped this in, restored the device with a recovery image in about 20 minutes, and its showing reads of nearly 3000MB/s and writes up to 2200MB/s. Laptop is now super quick, more storage and runs cooler. Brilliant.

Title: A diamond in the rough
Review: I need a decent but not overly expensive NVME for my new build, to use as a boot drive and programs and there’s a plethora out there to search through, varying speeds and budgets.What surprised me and then ultimately persuaded me was the description of using TLC memory.As many many at this price bracket use QLC flash memory, I had to go on Integrals website and download the datasheet to confirm, it does indeed use TLC memory.There is a somewhat hit and that’s on write speed, it could be up to half when you compare other brands/model at this price BUT the durability is nearly quadruple, what TLC is known for me. QLC may give you the write speeds but ultimately it will wear down faster, as its mostly a cheaper quality of flash memory.For me, I’m not a gamer but a photographer and so far its plenty fast, my PC boots in 8 seconds and ready to go! Programs open within a blink of an eye and I would only be able to compare any difference If I was sponsored Tag Heuer timing; from what I came from (120GB SSD), this is fast enough. If you get the 1TB version write speeds are much faster, so nearly joins the QLC club but still being TLC it has the durability plus has a three year warranty.Personally, I think this NVME is a diamond in the rough and not all will realise the value and quality rather ponder over brands like Crucial/Samsung/Kingston only. I’ve known, used and trusted Integral brand for several years, having their SD cards, SSD drives and their other market of high quality LED bulbs, especially their high cri versions (all still working)

Review: Die Integral 256GB NVMe M.2 2230 SSD PCIe Gen3 x4 hat meine Erwartungen weit übertroffen. Ich habe nach einer leistungsstarken und kompakten SSD für mein ultradünnes Laptop gesucht, und dieses Modell hat sich als perfekte Wahl erwiesen.Die Installation war unkompliziert und in wenigen Minuten erledigt. Dank des kompakten M.2 2230 Formats passt die SSD problemlos in kleine Geräte, ohne wertvollen Platz zu beanspruchen. Dies ist besonders wichtig für Laptops und kompakte PCs, wo Platz oft eine begrenzte Ressource ist.Die Leistung der SSD ist beeindruckend. Mit einer Lesegeschwindigkeit von bis zu 3000MB/s sind Boot-Zeiten, Dateiübertragungen und Ladezeiten von Programmen erheblich verkürzt. Mein System fühlt sich insgesamt viel reaktionsschneller an, und die Arbeit mit großen Dateien oder speicherintensiven Anwendungen geht mühelos von der Hand.Ein weiterer großer Pluspunkt ist die Zuverlässigkeit und Stabilität. Die SSD läuft auch unter hoher Belastung ohne Probleme und zeigt keine Anzeichen von Überhitzung oder Leistungseinbrüchen. Dies spricht für die Qualität und die fortschrittliche Technologie, die in diesem Produkt steckt.Insgesamt bin ich mit der Integral 256GB NVMe M.2 2230 SSD äußerst zufrieden. Sie bietet eine hervorragende Kombination aus Leistung, Kompaktheit und Zuverlässigkeit zu einem fairen Preis. Ich kann dieses Produkt jedem empfehlen, der seinen Laptop oder PC mit einer schnellen und zuverlässigen SSD aufrüsten möchte. Eine klare 5-Sterne-Bewertung!
