sorted bySick of the "NVME m.2 drives are everywhere" comments when most of us cannot use them in older systems - great if you have the latest stuff - but lots of us are happy to use SATA SSDs to replace ancient HDD technology.
I have two MX500s. I have one m.2 slot on my old B450 motherboard which houses a smallish boot drive. I expect the m.2 drive to die first, because even with a heat sink some of those things crack 90 celcius if you transfer files for longer than a few seconds.
What I said was, the MX500 is a reliable drive. (edited)
At this kind of price it's a good way to reduce usage of spinny HDDs (I always get annoyed when Windows locks up a process for seemingly no reason, but ends up being because the system was waiting for a drive to spin up).
