    Thanks for this. I've bought one to (try and) install Windows 11 on my 3 year old (according to Microsoft) incompatible hardware. if I have issues, I can just plug the current Windows 10 drive back in.

    I had a similar issue recently but if you get the windows 11 iso directly from Microsoft website then use Rufus (freeware) to burn to a USB stick. It has an option to bypass the stupid "incompatible hardware" error and lets you install it with no problems. I just did mine and it worked perfectly.

    are you saying this is better then the SN570 because of the DRAM?

    even though the SN570 is quoted at 3500 MB/s where this one is 2100 MB/s?

    This is truly a mind field to work out best bang for buck

    It's the DRAM component, the drive won't slow down as much when heavily written too.

    The SN570 once the SLC cache is used up it will slow down considerably.

    Pity no 2TB or 4TB options.

    Yep.
    Production of 2/4TB drives at the Kioxia plant all goes to WD (all WD/SanDisk SSD's are manufactured at the Kioxia plant).

    Bought this for my game library and i couldn't play them, had to swap to another ssd because almost every game was crashing or having random freezes. (the Nvme was never at more of its 50% capacity)

    The ssd shows no signal of being bad when i checked, the firmware was updated and motherboard was too, maybe i was just unlucky?

    Just keep it in mind

    maybe i was just unlucky?


    you was yes. this is a faulty drive / hardware problem. the drive is fine for gaming / os usage. (edited)

    Any recommendations for a caddy for this? I'm thinking of using it to play stuff into my TV.

    Well I do have a preference but they are close to £20, which adds another 50% to the price.

    Maybe consider all-in usb storage like amazon.co.uk/Cru…1_3

    If you still want a case then I have a couple of these that I like, they work, and make adding thermal pad easier than sliding cases.

    Nice little TLC drives with dram.

    Great for budget/old build but slow compared to performance drives, and with low NVME prices you could get better for around double the price.

    You indeed you could get "better" (on paper) for double(!) the price, but for the overwhelming majority it would make no difference in day to day usage.

    The only difference most people would notice is the extra £40 they spent

    I noticed this drop yesterday, great little drive for the money.
    I've installed something like 40 of these drives and never had an issue. (edited)

    The Kioxia drives are great value for money.
    Have the 500GB version of this one, and the G2 Plus.
    The change from a Samsung 980 was never sweeter for my drive cloning

    Just dropped again to £37.98

    Anyone use Linux laptop or desktop with these? I wonder if they resume from hibernate/suspend okay? As my Seagate 520 and Samsungs get stuck in powered down state, mean you need to do a full reboot. Tried on Arch and Debian. Cheers

    thats a damn cheap drive. on paper looks slow but for most builds will probably be fine

    sounds like a perfect mid ranger purchase. if i had the upper range CPU/GPU, i would probably spend the extra for a sammy
    The.Fat.Cat's avatar
    The.Fat.Cat
    Yeah, it's still a great drive.
    Reading/writing very large files would be a bit slower than most, but general performance is as good as any other in real world use, having DRAM cache helps it out a bit. (edited)
