Overview
Not an NVMe card, this is a SATA drive that goes where a hard disk would. It uses 3D NAND and works with desktops and laptops that take a 7mm SATA drive.
A big capacity at SATA speeds gives a hard disk upgrade in the same slot, with room for a whole library of games and files. The limitation is that the box lists only the drive, so cloning an old disk needs separate software.
Who it's for
A laptop or desktop that already boots well but is short on space gets the most use. People moving a Windows install will need their own cloning tool.
Pros and cons
- 3D NAND storage
- Fits 7mm bays
- Works with PC, Mac and Linux
- Three year limited warranty
- SATA speed ceiling
- Only the drive in the box
- No NVMe interface
- Enclosure material not listed
Performance notes
Flash storage removes seek time, so loading and file access are quicker than from a hard disk. The SATA link sets the ceiling, so sequential speed stays below NVMe drives. Free space helps keep write speed steady.
