I can't speak for this exact model (X10 Pro) but I've been rocking the regular non-pro Crucial X10 8TB variant for the last 9months or so and its been absolutely rock solid and performing amazingly. Easily hits 800MB/s+ transfer speeds on all my PCs (sometimes even peaks to 1.1 GB/s on my newer Amd HX 365 laptop) and sustains it for well over 10minutes+ even for my large file copies.
It's easily over taken my previous favorite drive (Samsung T9) as its both smaller, doesnt get hot at all and is available in the larger 8TB capacity. I even double dipped on a second one recently when it dropped down to 385.
This drive is very fast for what it is, including sustained writes that exhaust the cache. Probably most important to note that most Thunderbolt controllers in existence don't support a 20Gb/s mode, so this and any other USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 drive will run at 10Gb/s in a Thunderbolt port. For maximum speed / compatibility, your best option is a USB 4 enclosure and your M.2 drive of choice. But this thing is TINY in comparison.
