Greater than one weekThe price was so good that I neglected to think about the fact that the heatsink is not removeable and therefore the space requirement for this SSD is substantial compared to the non-heatsink version. I was able to pry the metal cage for a SATA HDD in my NUC, and then waws able to fit it in to replace the 0.5TB SSD it shipped with.

> 3 dayThis SSD at least for this capacity would make for a very fast boot drive or spare drive for games. With the direct storage API coming to DX12 soon these drives are a must for lightning fast load times and texture streaming. This drive will probably be one of like 2 or 3 drives approved out of what is out so far to work with the PS5 as well, though that feature at the time of writing has yet to be implemented. To take advantage of the speed of this drive you will need either a B550 or x570 motherboard for AMD processors or a Z590 motherboard for 11th gen Intel processors. The speed is comparable to Samsungs 980 Pro and is currently much faster than like 90% of current PCIE gen 4 drives most of which cap out around 4-5k write speed where as this is more like 7k write. Overall these drives are future facing as they will be what is ideal for the PS5(whenever Sony decides to unlock this feature) and for the upcoming Direct Storage API which will bring PS5 speed load times and texture streaming to PC.

> 3 dayGot this for game storage, 4TB, insanely fast. Ill be up front, game load times in general arent affected much compared to my SATA 2.5 Crucial MX500, a few were noticeable, but I just like to have good PC parts. Also, this will probably be useful when DirectStorage is implemented into games.

> 3 dayHey, guys, you need to insert and push tight the ssd with your main-board. if not, your PC would not recognize it and not power on. I was scared at the begining, I thought my board was burned. I pushed it harder. Then, everything is OK.

Greater than one weekVery simple to install, loads immediately onto the system, and I only have had one failure to store a file-although not certain why that happened.
