Excelente

¡Muy satisfecho con la compra! El producto llegó en buen estado, cumple con lo que promete y la calidad me sorprendió para bien. Sin duda lo volvería a comprar.

I have this as my Windows 10 boot drive with an ASRock B450M Pro4 motherboard, Ryzen 5 3400G processor, and 2x8GB Team T-FORCE 3200 DDR4 memory. Everything is running stock, no overclocking.I set the "Ultra M.2" SSD as my primary boot device in BIOS, rebooted to a USB thumb drive with the Windows 10 install files, and installed Win 10 to this drive without a hitch. It's working fine as a fast boot drive.If you are used to standard HDD boot times, this SSD will be lightning fast. After BIOS loads, it takes about 8 seconds to the Windows 10 login prompt. If you are coming from a SATA SSD as your boot device (like my old system), this is still faster, but not a night-and-day difference. Besides the speed, I like this because it doesn't take a precious SATA drive slot in my mini ATX tower case.If this last part sounds like gobbledygook to you, don't worry, you can skip it. This drive has a rating of 350TBW, which isn't stellar for something like video editing, but certainly good enough for an OS drive. Windows 10 understands SSD's pretty well, and SSD's have come a long way from the "careful you don't write to them too much because you could kill your drive" early days. These days, something else on your system is more likely to die before your SSD does, even if you have something like your swap file on the SSD. I have 16GB of RAM in this system so don't expect to be writing much to my swap to begin with, so I just let Windows configure everything the way it wanted to.

I bought this chip used, along with a Sintech M.2 Nvme adapter, to upgrade my 11” MacBook Air (2015)I’m happy to report that it installed no problem, formatted properly and I was able to restore my files from a backup. Computer runs smoothly and a little bit faster and no more “out of disk space” warnings. This would have been a good deal at full price and I would definitely buy this again if needed.

Decided to pick this out for my first NVMe seeing it being recommended as just one level above budget NVMe SSDs for my new PC build and to completely move away from disk drives. There were alternatives at this price/performance range such as Intel 670p and Sabrent Rocket Q, but I don't know enough about storage technology to tell whether they are better or worse in comparison.Installation into the motherboard was smooth and had Windows 10 installed quickly without any issues. Haven't tested it on any games since it'd just been recently built. A quick check with Crystal Disk Info and Crystal Disk Mark shows no problems and read write speeds matching advertised speeds. Compared to my previous OS SSD (Crucial MX200) at this point in time, random read/write performance increased decently while sequential read/write increase by 4x!Some of the reviews regarding lifespan are concerning, but for now I'm happy and satisfied with what I got.

4 stars only for the experience having to find the slot to install it, apart from that works fine

I installed the Kingston A2000 1TB NVME drive into a Sabrent enclosure to create an external SSD USB drive and it works flawlessly. I formatted it for Windows (NTFS) and tested it then formatted it for MacBook M1 (APFS) and retested it. The combination of this relatively inexpensive NVME drive and the Sabrent enclosure were as fast as the big name brand “T7” 1TB drive that I already owned when attached to a 3 year old Dell and it was faster than the "T7" when attached to a Macbook Air M1. I used CrystaIDiskMark to evaluate its speed for Windows and AmorphousDisk Mark to evaluate the speed on the M1. Note: I posted a parallel review with the Windows speed comparison for the Sabrent enclosure rating.

This Kingston 1TB A2000 M.2 2280 Nvme Internal SSD is everything that you'd expect from an internal SSD. After I built my first Gaming PC using this piece, I have seen noticeable speed increases when playing some games, but its greater speed increase seems more visible in video editing software and regular software use (Windows, Office, etc...)I can definitely attest to this SSD's durability. Should you view the screenshot, I do not have the screw to affix the SSD to the motherboard. Yes, it's just sticking up. I even tried electrical tape to hold it down with no success. (I circled in red where the screw should be.) Of course-I don't recommend anyone doing that, but if it still works for a knucklehead like me since last Christmas, then I have faith in the longevity of this product.
