Never heard of the brand. Anyone know what reliability is like on these?
It's a spin-off from Toshiba, so reliability should be fine.
Are these only for laptops? Or can they be used in desktops. If so what adapter is needed? Thanks
You can also use it off a PCI slot with an adapter, or via USB with an adapter or enclosure.
I use one via a ribbon cable & card adapter, or if you have room (your graphics card doesn't cover the slot like mine does!) you can just use a card adpter.
Okay as a budget drive and at these prices quite nice.
Cracking price!

Hot, nice one!
Would this be compatible with a 2015 MacBook Pro?
the 2015 Macbook pro uses a bespoke interface and is not directly m2 compatible. I think someone posted on here about adapters you can get to shoehorn an M2 drive into a MBP. You'd need to check the total lenght of the drive + adapter and see if it would actually fitt, too!
Also ordered, thx OP!
Good price but the g2 model from the above link from user @KiNG ( thanks for the link) is a much better option with h/w and speed also and TBW parameters (edited)
Great stuff, cracking price - just wish I had a laptop good enough to use this!!
