    Price now $240.95

      that seems really high. i paid $190ish about 6 weeks ago not on sale

  • Installed this from the other deal got speeds around 1650-1750 depending on which version of crystaldisc. Still a lot cheaper than the Samsung Evo/Pros, maybe not quite as good.

  • if i want this to work with SATA ports, what are my solutions?

    • There are no SATA solutions given SATA is much slower than NVMe interface.

      You can buy a PCIe NVMe expansion card if you have PCIe slots free on your motherboard.

      • as i thought, i have an itx pc, so my pci-e slots are all but taken.

        thing is i can get a m2 nvme 1tb ssd used for pretty much the same price as a sata ssd 1tb, so i don't mind the performance drop if i had to install an adaptor.

      • thanks i saw that but ngff not compatible with nvme. i believe ngff is a sata standard.

        • NGFF is just another name for M2 'Next Generation Form Factor' is what the industry want it called rather than after the connector type M2. Confusing to say the least.

      Just get the MX500, no point getting an NVMe SSD if it won't be used. Besides, the MX500 uses more enduring NAND flash.

        the 1tb crucial nvme i'll be getting only cost me $130 (preowned from a friend).

        i rather purchase a sata adaptor for it if it does exist so when i do build something else in the future i can extract the nvme ssd and use it at its maximum bandwidth.

          Ouch I wouldn't buy a preowned QLC drive, it's probably 75% dead by now.

            @Void: ah i know the guy - he loaded win 10 pro, fired up crystaldiskmark, did 2 benchmarks, wasn't happy with the results and returned it back to its packaging. as good as new really.

            • @plentifoo: Sounds good!

              • @Void: but the hassle of having to find and buy an adaptor can be offputting - i might just get a good ol' 2.5" sata ssd for $136 after cashback and call it a day.

                • @plentifoo: Also QLC but if you aren't gonna write too much it should be fine.

                  • +2

                    @Void: nah my main is a wd black 1tb nvme. this will take a backseat just to store an entire games library.

            @Void:

            Ouch I wouldn't buy a preowned QLC drive, it's probably 75% dead by now.

            Pipe down with the exaggeration already. I've just checked my 1TB 860 EVO which I use in my daily driver as a regular system/storage drive. I've had it for just over a year, 11.5TB written.

            Even for a drive that has 100TB write endurance, this is just a little over 10%. Nobody is going to use an SSD for 9 - 10 years, so you'll replace it long before it "wears out". 75% dead is 75TB written for a drive like the Crucial P1. Say his mate had it for a year, how many people write 205GB every day per day?

            The whole QLC vs. TLC thing is silly, same arguments were made back in the day with TLC vs. MLC until everybody accepted that costs + capacity requirements mandated largely moving to TLC. Same deal with QLC. For most users, QLC is fine, bigger capacity drives and cheaper. Read performance (which most people use their drives for) are perfectly acceptable.

            I agree people who need to do heavy writes shouldn't get this drive. Go for a 970 PRO. They know who they are and they know what to buy already.

            • @p1 ama: Yeah after reading what he said it seems good. I use Radeon ReLive or the alternative being NVIDIA Shadowplay and my SSD has 13TBW after 6 months.

      MX500 is a SATA drive, this is NVMe

    • +1

      mx500 is an m2 sata drive, not an m2 nvme… why are you comparing that with the p1, which is an nvme? might as well get a samsung with the cashback at that point, much cheaper at the same speed

  • The P1 would be the slowest nvme drive I ever used, the Kingston nearly doubles it, p1 is a qlc and endurance is a measley 200 tbw

  • +1

    Available to order again.

  • Eh, QLC.

    No thanks.

  • Anyone know if this will work in a 2013 MacBook Air? Or will it need some sort of adapter?

  • Where can I find a standoff screw that will let me install this into a gigabyte X470 mobo? I've had this drive for well over a month but it doesn't come with a screw, the X470 doesn't have a standard m.2 standoff screw, and the screw holes are too big for standard m.2 standoff screws. I've seen discussions on other sites, one guy has been looking for a screw for over a year for an MSI board. Another guy in NYC said he bought dozens of screws from dozens of shops and none of them fit. Someone on whirlpool said they ended up just using blutack to "mount" the drive. Myself, I have half a dozen standoff screws bought form Amazon and ebay etc., but they are all too small. If anyone here has an X470 gigabyte mobo, I'll pay you at least $20 for your M.2 standoff screw. I'm negotiable, I can pay a lot more for this standoff if that's what it takes.
