Great price to performance
Slotted this drive into my GMKtec Nucbox G10 and works as advertised. I wanted to dual boot. This drive runs my home server and the standard included drive runs Windows. No issues with the drive, plug and play

Big Good
I feel like I've traveled to the future with this one, it's so good man. Going from a laptop hard drive to this, has completely changed my computing experience. No issues getting detected on the dell e5470 lattitude's nvme port. Works both in raid and ahci mode, linux and windows.

Very nice
I went from a spinning drive to this NVME and the performance is not even close. For the price it's at and what you get in return makes it all the more worth on it's own. Windows took forever to boot on an HDD, now it boots in seconds. Would recommend, though try to get a bit more storage if possible.

Amazing performance to price ratio
This m.2 really exceeded my expectations, windows is booting up in under 10 seconds or less, the speeds are lightning fast, 10/10 would recommend this as a budget drive.

Nice SSD
This little bugger had me swearing a couple of times. You load the OS and when it starts up again the MB doesn't see the SSD. Happened a few times and I had to re-format on a different PC. Now using it as a 2nd SSD for games and it performs great. 3 times is more than enough to give up on putting the OS on it. Great little SSD to use as a secondary drive. Not so sure about using it as a OS drive.

All the bits
I haven't run any benchmarks or anything, but I have been pretty much using Mushkin exclusively for the past few years, and they are plenty fast and reliable and this one seems no different.
