Pretty slow for a 4.0 drive. You sure this isn't a 3.0 drive?

It's definitely a 4.0 drive. For whatever reason, some companies put out some Gen 4 drives with Gen 3 speeds. I haven't figured out why yet either.

Reminds me of the Gen 4 Inland drive I got at MicroCenter. It was no upgrade from my Gen3 WD Black.

This is just a guess on my part, but perhaps lower speeds would mean lower temperatures which would be very desirable in non desktop environments, where heatsinks are not an option.

Would a TeamGroup 3rd Gen be better than this?

Inadvertently making a cheap Ps5 compatible SSD.

There's not really a single game out there that requires/utilizes Gen4 speeds yet (quite the opposite in some titles where you have to wait for last Gen to load) and I doubt anyone would really notice the load time differences.

That being said I doubt this was their intention.
