SABRENT 1TB Rocket Q4 NVMe PCIe 4.0 M.2 2280 Internal SSD Maximum Performance Solid State Drive with Heatsink |R/W 4700/1800 MB/s (SB-RKTQ4-HTSS-1TB)

This product is a great value for the money. The included heatsink and instructions are quite impressive, reflecting quality workmanship. While aggressive gamers will need something faster, this drive is plenty good for "regular" computer users like me. The included, FREE Acronis cloning software is also a nice touch at this price point. Installation and cloning went smoothly (my challenge was accessing what I needed in my BIOS, so YMMV). Performance is good and meets my needs well.

In the fervor of the PS5 and XSX showcasing the power of ultra-fast PCIe4.0 M.2 SSDs, I decided that my next build was going to completely abandon all classic mechanical HDDs and SATA SSDs in favor of the closest M.2 SSDs to this new standard I could manage.I needed to find a high capacity, very fast storage medium for a reasonable price. Enter the Sabrent Rocket Q4. I designed my build-out from the ground up focused around having 6 GB of storage using 3 of the 2 TB versions of this exact drive. I cannot adequately express the effect of the amazing 4800 Mbps read, 3600 Mbps write speed of the Sabrent Rocket Q4 on a PCIe4.0 board! I have been astonished at the quality of life change nearly zero loading time gives! I found myself replaying Crysis 2 with less than 10 second load times and Doom Eternal and a lot of classic RPGs which are practically instant and maximizing my valuable and highly limited gaming time instead of staring at load screens!The last time I experienced a fundamental technology shift of this magnitude was in 1998 when Quake 2 came out and demonstrated with 3Dfx the first colored lighting, an act which finally allowed 3D to go on par with and far surpass 2D graphics. The "wow" factor was immediately evident and I am feeling the same thing from these amazing drives!For the rest of the build I paired a 3 M.2 2280 slot board (Gigabyte x570 AORUS Master w/ Ryzen 9 3900XT) with 32 GB RAM and currently a GTX 1070ti (RTX 3080 in my future) with 32 GB of DDR4-3600 to fit under my Noctua NH-D15 cooler. Having storage so fast it is potentially bottlenecked by RAM is mindblowing and a clear testament to the progress of today!Overall, this is an absolutely fabulous investment and I am completely satisfied! I highly, highly recommend these drives to experience the same joy!

I'm always hesitant to review items, like this, so early after I've received it. In the last week since I received this SSD, I've put it through its paces and it handled quite well.I was going to get another 2TB Corsair MP600 for my PC, but since this one was on sale for about $80 off on cyber monday, I couldn't resist. I am not using this drive for the operating system, I am using my existing M.2 as a system drive, and this one is simply for adding extra data storage mostly for games; but also to free up room for media like music and movies.The install was extremely easy. (My Asus X570 required me to remove the M.2 heatsinks and the chipset cover, but that's more of a Motherboard issue). The bios recognized the new storage device immediately. I didn't even have to do anything in the bios, but your mileage may vary depending on bios. On the first boot, the operating system took an extremely long time to load, and I'm not sure why, but it was only once. I think there was some initialization happening behind the scenes and I was stuck on a black screen for a few minutes. I just walked away from it and eventually came back to a windows 10 login screen.A note to Windows 10 users: If you are like me, and using this for extra storage and not your system drive, you will need to go into your disk manager and format this volume for use. It won't be available as a drive until you do.I measured the performance with Crystal Disk Mark and this drive performed about the same as my MP600. It did slightly better and slightly worse in some categories but overall the differences are so negligible that you'd never notice it. If I recall, the MP600 seemed to do better in sequential writes and reads and this one did better in random writes and reads. Once again, the difference is so minimal that I think of them virtually the same.I moved all of my steam games to the new drives and it was so fast it moved my largest games in less than 90 seconds and the smaller games in about 30 seconds.At the moment, I could not be more pleased with this drive. I see the price has gone up since Cyber Monday, so it's a bit of a tough sell at over $300, but if this ever goes on sale for less than $300 I would not hesitate to get another one.

I haven't been using this for any significant amount of time, but I know some people who have, and they too appreciate Sabrent's M.2s. I had no issues in setting up and formatting the drive, and speeds appear to be as stated. I use it for games, and it's even faster than my other M.2 drive, which it should be, so that's good. Without benchmarking it, I'm quite happy with it.For people new to M.2's, just make sure to read the directions and, before you buy anything, make sure all the specs match up with your motherboard's specs.Do keep in mind that all drives measure their storage space more like metric and less like base 2. That's computer science talk for "It will show as less on your PC than what it says on the page". This is perfectly normal, it's not missing, it's not defective. For example, this one will read as approximately 1.81 TB, and this is as expected and correct.

For there pcie adapter running around 22,000 read speed

Works great, super fast, very easy install that came with the screw needed for installation.

excelente calidad precio

Blazing fast in reads and much faster with writes when properly configured and about 15-20% utilized.

Ottimo prodotto, ben confezionato e rese rato, consegnato velocemente.Veloce e facile da installare nelle motherboard predisposte o nei box compatibili m-key NVMe PCIe.Inserito in un box esterno Ugreen e collegato via USB 3.0 al mio MacBook Pro 2012 funziona benissimo e va veloce. Allego la schermata del benchmark.Per ora non ha dato alcun problema. Nessun errore o crash, scalda il giusto.Infine l’ho collegato al mio MacBook Pro di ultima generazione che uso per lavoro ed ho ottenuto prestazioni anche superiori.Prezzo ragionevole vista la qualità, meglio comunque se fosse un 10-20% meno.La consiglio.

Ich habe die 2TB Version gekauft, um Sie in einem Yottamaster TB3 Gehäuse am iMac Baujahr 2020 als Speichermedium für meine Fotos zu verwenden. Im geschlossenen Gehäuse wird die SSD und das Gehäuse nach der Erstbefüllung mit ca. 20.000 Fotodateien sehr heiß (so heiß das ich das Gehäuse gerade noch anfassen kann). Das lag auch daran das Spotlight (das ist die Mac Suche) erst mal die Dateien indiziert hat. Da ich Spotlight für meine Fotos nicht brauche habe ich es für die SSD abgeschaltet. Als weitere Maßnahme gegen die Wärmeentwicklung habe ich den Sabrent Kühler gekauft und montiert. Natürlich kann der Gehäusedeckel nicht werden und das Ganze ist nicht mehr mobil. Der Vorteil ist eine konstante Schreib- und Lesegeschwindigkeit von ca. 2,5 GB/s bei großen Dateien ohne Einbruch. Bei normalen Betrieb liegt die Temperatur bei 35-40 Grd. C (laut iStat Menues und auch mit Laserthermometer selber gemessen)Somit bin ich sehr zufrieden und vergebe 5 SterneEine störende Auffälligkeit gibt es aber noch. Ab und an wird das Laufwerk ohne Grund ausgeworfen, zum Glück war das noch nicht passiert während Dateien geschrieben wurden. Ich hatte auch den Fall das nach Aufwecken des Mac aus dem Ruhezustand das Laufwerk nicht mehr gemountet war. Dann heißt es Thunderbolt Kabel abziehen und wieder anstecken.Sollte das weiterhin auftreten oder häufiger werden, dann muss ich wohl die SSD und/oder das Laufwerksgehäuse zurücksenden. Ich werde über die weitere Entwicklung berichten.Update 2.2.21Die M.2 SSD mach doch mehr Probleme als erwartet. Sie wird ab und an ausgeworfen, mal nach geführt 15 min. mal nach mehreren Stunden. Ich hatte 2 mal den Fall das der iMac wären des Bootvorgangs abgestürzt ist und ich nochmal starten musste. Mein iMac ist das neueste Modell aus 2020, ohne die Sabrent SSD habe ich Null Probleme.Die oben beschriebenen Fehler sind weniger geworden, nachdem ich das Dateisystem von HFS+ nach APFS geändert hatte. Danach hat der Ruhestand funktioniert und die SSD wurde auch im Systembericht unter MVMExpress angezeigt (was vorher nicht der Fall war). Die Fehler sind aber nicht völlig weg, ich hatte plötzlich die Meldung das eine Datei nicht geschrieben werden konnte weil die SSD read only ist.Ich habe heute das neueste Big Sur update durchgeführt, vielleicht hilft das bei meinen Problemen. Falls weiterhin solche Fehler habe gehen SSD und Gehäuse zurück.
