I bought both the 1TB version and 2TB versions of this same M.2 SSD, installed in the PCIe4 M.2 slots of an Asus B650E-E motherboard running a Ryzen 7800X3D and Windows 11.
Delivery of the version I bought from Overclockers UK was quick, with no troubles.
I've been running the build for over half a year now, performance of this drive (tested on CrystalDiskMark) is as advertised, both when first built and to this day. Compared to other PCIe4 M.2 SSDs, this is amongst the fastest, though it is costing a fair bit more than slightly slower M.2 SSDs. It runs cool, even when not properly connected to a heatsink, which is far better than PCIe5 M.2s at the current time. For day-to-day use, I don't notice a significant difference compared to other slower SSDs. The file transfers between these SSDs are very quick I don't even notice them, the only slowdowns are when transferring to mechanical HDDs, understandably due to the bottleneck from the other slower drives.
Overall, it's a great drive with great performance when tested, but the slighly increased speeds are probably not worth the increased cost for most folks. If you want the best of the best and can make the most of the increased performance, this is a great choice. Otherwise, there's better value on the slighly slower models.
