I have this drive, it does less than the rated speeds when I copy from it to my much faster Sabrent, I get about 1400MB - 1600MB/s read from it, which is fine as I mostly use it as a scratch drive. My secondary M.2 slot is gimped anyway due to the motherboard so that's why I went for a lower performing cheaper drive. Storing data on that isn't mission critical. It's a decent drive, does the job, not fast but OK for my requirements. I paid £89.99 on 28th November 2020. So yeah almost 3 years ago, it was a cheap drive, and now it's an ultra cheap drive. Nothing to get excited about but it's still working but doesn't get heavy usage.
Unfortunately, this deal has expired 21 October 2023.

sorted by- I thought this was posted already, if I'd known I would have, lol.
Great value drive, far better value than the Crucial P3 for £35, but I bet it still doesn't get as much heat as that deal.AuthorSeems great to have in a budget system, granted it's not 3500mb/s speed but hey it's a 1tb for £30.
Really good value overall. I think the description says it's SLC cache too, but granted with what you mentioned on previous deals I don't fully know what the extent of that claim is. - Also the 2tb version there aswell for 60
- I may be stupid but is 600MB/S not really low?Authorit is, the staff put the space in there. it's actually 1600MB/s (write speed)
I'll change that soon to save any further confusion - I must resist.
If it drops further then I doubt I'll be able to hold back. Ideal for 10Gbps caddy use
A couple of Crucial P2 NVMe were bought previously £57.60 each in AUG 2021 for some caddies to hook up to a couple of series x (edited) - So £30 breached, how long til £25?
- This is a great deal here! Don't worry about too much about the read write speeds they only really matter when copying very large files. For a boot drive with your apps this is a very good drive
- Pay a little more for a better quality and quicker one.Like?
