If you're upgrading from a spinning drive, definitely. Like booboloo said, the other factors (lack of dram for instance) won't be a huge deal if you're upgrading an old machine with a traditional platter style hard drive.

I've had good luck with Lexar products in the past, although I haven't used this specific drive. I've used other cheap 2.5 SSDs and *knock on wood* they all work as advertised.

While there are nice advantages with the M.2 PCI-E gen 4 SSDs on the market now that you'd use in a new machine, nothing beats the tremendous jump from an old 5400rpm laptop hdd to an SSD. Going from older 2.5 SATA SSDs to the newer M.2 drives is nice don't get me wrong, but it still doesn't compare with the initial HDD --> SSD switch. My opinion, of course.
Should be fine, the ones with dram like the mx500/samsung evo are still too expensive, on an older machine wouldnt be noticable anyways. 2TB just brute forces its way to performance if you don't fill it up as ssds work better with free space.


Near full it still writes at triple digit speeds unzipping hundreds of GB files, I've had qlc 670p's drop down to double digit under the same conditions, so the dram didn't save the 670p.

Full durability test in chinese because far too many budget drive reviews are write 1GB to an empty drive type superficial conclusions.

I bought this for $57 on the last sale for my rasp pi PLEX server, and am returning it.

Write speeds were around 40MB/s transferring movies from my NVMe, meaning it took 10x as long as I'd hoped to write my info to this drive.

Edit: I actually bought the NQ100, my mistake!
It's because of Raspberry pi, not the drive. I have a pi 4gb. The Pi usb connection cannot go full speed.

No Rasp Pi involved in the file transfer, I just bought the drive to use with my Pi Plex setup after the files were on it.
I should have never mentioned the rasp pi
