Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

M. Hdd 4tb external ssd for mac can reach speeds up to 2789mbps. Took seconds to assemble using only my hands (and scissors to trim the tape), costing.

Easy install with one screw, and one connector. Still working though, but want to upgrade to a new one. Nvme has a good speed and reasonable price for my laptop.



Cons

Quick format that does not write 0s or any data to the drive to prevent prematurely aging the chips. Timeouts to drive disappearing from view. Could not get motherboard to recognize the hard drive. Wouldn't recommend this drive.

No manufacturer box and no hardware. Just a scotch taped antistatic bag. Now it is lost in kingston rma limbo. Spend more money on a decent well known brand.

Write speeds drop from 2,000mbs+ to 200mbs- and sometimes below 100mbs. Takes forever to load. Quality issue related to the interface section of the card. The item was faulty and the cause of months of degraded performance.
