PNY CS2130 500GB M.2 PCIe NVMe Gen3 x4 Internal Solid State Drive (SSD), Read up to 3,500 MB/s - M280CS2130-500-RB

I bought 2 different modules and neither worked in my MSI GT72 2QD Dominator. Whatever is going on, the PNY SSD is preventing my PC from even turning on. I thought the first module may have been defective, so I bought a replacement. Probably a good product if it works. Easy return so thats why its a 3 star as opposed to a 1 star.

I love it, got it on sale at a good price. Set it as my boot drive as well as my software drive. Works great, super fast takes less than 30 seconds to boot into windows. Nothing but praise for this ssd.

Reasonably close to manufacturer claims - its 2022 after all and you cannot expect companies to be honest in their marketing. Writing less than 64GB gets you speeds that are much closer to what PNY claims this drive should be able to do.

Used for the 2nd drive in my laptop and working great, easy to install

First m2 SSD drive. My tests were around 3000 Read up as described. Killer price too. 5 stars

Only issue I ran into is that it didnt initialize after I installed it. I went into the bios, couldnt find it, so I had to do it from the storage manager in windows. Once I got it initialized, everything worked just fine.

Great valve for storage will see how long it last and update but for now very happy with this purchase.

I mean its pricey, but its insanely fast and worth it to be honest. Very cool

Works as fast as advertised

Note: this is a three-month review. The device works as intended, even though I installed it in a laptop that runs rather hot. What else is there to say?
