That said there is the usual conundrum of someday being able to use the extra 1500 to 3500MB/s some day for an extra $20 to 50 but chances are by then it will make more sense to go with PCIe5 drives.
I have the 1tb version of this and It's been working just fine as an OS drive. Desktop in seconds, at game menu in less than a minute from shutdown to steam start-up and finally launching the game.

I have this 2tb drive. Feels almost as fast as my Samsung 980 pro 2tb. People hate on QLC and no dram, I don't know why. I've never had any nvme fail before. Side by side, I bet a lot of people wouldn't notice any difference.
1) "Coming in at around 3200mb/s it doesn't reach the full PS5 speed requirements, but it is recognised and allowed to be used by the console thanks to its pci-e gen4 spec."
2) "Read online that this would work in the PS5 so I thought I'd give it a go.
PS5 complained it wasn't fast enough when I installed it but let me use it anyway.
Horizon Forbidden West, Doom Eternal and Borderlands 3 tested so far with no issues in performance or loading speed."
3) "Bought this for use in a PS5, while it's below the required speed, it will still work since all the PS5 needs is pcie gen 4.
I tested it out with several PS5 games, including Elden Ring, Miles Morales, Tales of Arise, Forbidden West, etc. and they all loaded up in the same time as the internal drive to the eye test.
Overall, I recommend it if you're looking to increase your storage on a budget and don't want to spend the extra cash."
"The 2TB Kingston NV2 is a dirt cheap NVMe SSD and not much more. Performance is fairly bad, the drive runs hot, and you cannot be certain of the hardware. It makes for a cheap secondary drive but is not ideal for laptops or for use as a primary drive."
For t$10 cheaper (newegg/ebay), the intel 670p is a far better drive,.
It's fine for an os drive. The best? No. But still pretty damn fast.

Stop the faking. QLC Intel 670p sucks lot....

QLC technically only has ¼ of life SLC, enjoy the short life with very short life Intel SSD business
From Tom's review of the Kingston:
"Four 512GB NAND modules with four 128GB dies deliver a total of 2TB. This is Intel's 144-layer QLC."
Works fine for the ps5. I have been using it since January. You will get a warning about the read speed but it still works. Very fast transfer rate between the main ssd and this.
however with the rate nvme is dropping, I recommend getting a faster drive for around $120.

Thanks bro

It has been reported, 1TB version is SLC, 2TB becomes bad with QLC
