Thanks, OP. Just ordered.

Was tempted to buy when this dropped to $199 a couple of months ago but have been waiting, thinking it would drop more as the Platinum Gen 4 started to ship. Believe $180 may be close to the lowest price we may see as Gold Gen 3 inventory is cleared out. My LG Gram only supports Gen 3 so no need to buy Gen 4 except for future proofing. But, the real draw here is the power efficiency making this one of the best available options for laptops.
Probably the best overall consumer Gen3 SSD available
Great drives, perfect for laptops as they sip power and stay cool.

When using a USB 3.1 enclosure what happens to the read/write speeds, do the still do 3500/3200?
USB 3.1/3.2 Gen2 is limited to 1GB/s. A USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 enclosure would do 2GB/s.

PS5 requires Gen4 SSDs. This is a Gen3.

It's all about the platinum hynix now. Gold is not compatible with ps5 games, but platinum is. P41.

And the sabrent heatsink is a popular one. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B09HSQQWCL/

This is a good Gen 3 M2 SSD for laptops or small form factor computers where heating is an issue. The drive is very efficient, uses less power and generates less heat compared to Gen 4 ssds. Mine is running at a cool 59 degrees C while Gen 4 SSDs would be 70-80 C and require heatsinks.

If you have the space/cooling then Gen 4 would be faster and better.

Quote from JavierH :
I am new to NVMe drives, but the Samsung 970 Evo seems to cost about the same with almost the same specs.

Why choose this one over the Samsung?
Buy whichever is cheaper. Both are about as good as a 3.0 drive can be. Like others said, the reviews show this running cooler and using less power, though how much real world effect that has is probably minimal. I have the 1tb version of this and am completely satisfied.

USB3.1 tops at 10gbp/s. Around 1000MB/s.

You have to buy Thunberbolt 3/4 enclosure to reach around 2000-3000MB/s(M1 Max/Pro TB support is better than M1 mini). In addition, there is NVME controller/heat issue. For ex, the incompatible NVME like 970 EVO Plus PRO may NOT get you the desired speed. I won't risk buying SK Hynix or AData controller as the controller may not be fully compatible and will be ended with a much slower speed or even disconnection. You can check the TB3 enclosure product page for compatible NVME SSD if available.

Based on the reviews, this is probably the best Gen 3 M.2 on the market. I'm using this as my data drive.

Installed this on my legion 5 pro with the 64gb 3200 DDR4 a few days back on front page. Pretty happy with them.
