Overview
A gaming console storage bay or PC motherboard slot takes this small NVMe stick, which uses four PCIe lanes. Power-efficient design holds its draw low, and it fits the common long gumstick length.
Gamers, office users and creators get quick boot and load times from a drive aimed at everyday use. Console compatibility is listed for two models. One entry lists a bay size that conflicts with the stick size.
Who it's for
A builder, student or gamer upgrading from an older drive. Console owners can add storage if their model accepts an NVMe stick. Owners of a laptop-style SATA bay need a different product.
Pros and cons
- Fast read and write speeds
- Works with PC and some consoles
- Small and light
- Five year warranty
- Form factor listed two ways
- Needs a free drive slot
- No heatsink listed
- Endurance rating not listed
Performance notes
Speed comes from the four lane PCIe interface and the NVMe protocol, which moves many requests at once. In a slot with fewer lanes or an older generation, speeds fall. Long sustained writes heat the drive, and a motherboard heatsink helps hold speed.
