Depends on the use case. For everyday uses, you're not going to notice a difference or wear it out faster in any measurable way. If you're trying to get a good bang for buck drive to really speed up your system, this is a good way to go. I never recommend people to spend more than they have to if they're not going to actually gain an appreciable performance boost or just because something else is better on paper.

This should be a reputable, reliable drive. You might find something cheaper from other brands (and vice versa), but I don't think you can go wrong with this unless you specifically need a certain level of sequential read/writes, iops, tbw, etc. Don't just go by what's on paper, go by what you need/don't need, and one that isn't known to cause problems.
Just a warning to anyone buying this, When they get full the write speed slows down to below HDD speeds. You are not supposed to run these drives to anywhere near 90% of capacity and above.

This is a really really old drive, there are way better newer and faster models out there (i'm only talking of pci-e gen3) with much better speeds and better durability than this for $5 to $10 more on an everyday price. Sale prices on those will be cheaper/better. Save yourself the trouble.
Still waiting to replace my 1TB NVMe SSD I bought three years ago for $69. Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron stop colluding to milk the consumer at 1-2TB kkthx. We are ready to be cheated at 8-32TB.

Everyone has been brainwashed to eat these high price because xyz reasons. It's easier and cheaper to print ssd NAND memory than make a hard drive yet you don't see those staying stationary at 1-2TB for the past 3 years.


For friends sake people I bought this for $69 in 2019.

I bought the 2TB version of this drive a while back on a Black Friday deal for 169.00. been a great drive. I use it for my Steam Game Library. Honestly I can't tell the difference between the speed of this drive and my Samsung non QLC drives for day to day use.

OK, I'm a little confused by all the drives linked in this thread--I need a 1 TB to replace the 512 that died in my Razer Blade Stealth. The Crucial looks like the best option?

According to reviewers and redditors Intel is like one of two manufacturers that has never substituted components and downgraded SSD performance or durability. Almost every other big brand, WD, Samsung, ADATA, Kingston, etc all have done bait and switch, by selling inferior units compared to the review models under the exact same model name without updating specs or notifying reviewers.

Why are you comparing normal sale pricing with your super slick deal that was probably a promo or price mistake? Chipmaker and SSD manufacture are different people, demand for Chips are higher.

The drive is fine for normal use but price is crap. Bought this same drive 2 years ago for $85. If you want a cheap QLC at least go with the newer ones…even Intel's own 670P had sales lower than this price not long ago.

1TB QLC at $69 isn't a price mistake. This outdated 660P at $90 just isn't a good deal even today in chip shortage times. You can find Kingston and other QLC 1TB drives often on sale around $80-$95 range every other week. There was literally a Kingston 1TB deal at $80 last week and a Mushkin 1TB at $85 or something before that

Is this better product than the Kingston 1TB deal posted few days ago?

But you're comparing Intel SSDs to the mentioned companies, they ain't the same.

Doesn't matter, it comes down to the specs of each product, and at this price range they are all QLCs. Also, you do know that Intel had already sold its NAND fab last year right? They don't own the NAND fab for these QLCs anymore, they are just an integrator now like most other companies like Kingston, Western Digital, etc. The 660p and slightly newer 665p are both discontinued products, with worse endurance rating and much worse performance than their own 670p line that's newer. This is not even looking at deals on cheaper TLC 1TB drives.
