CorsairMp600 Core 1Tb M.2 Nvme Pcie X4 Gen4 Ssd (Up To 4,700Mb/Sec Sequential Read & 1,950Mb/Sec Sequential Write Speeds, High-Speed Interface, 3D Qlc Nand, Built-In Heatspreader) Aluminum

What would be nice is if Corsair mentioned that for certain kinds of jobs that require writing very large files, this SSDs performance is much worse than their competition.

IInstructions were very simple and it didn't work after installing. Had to find YT videos telling you how to enter your drive allocations, how to format it and get it to show up in Windows10. Would have helped if the 1 page instructions mentioned this, instead of me fiddling with BIOS and wasting time.Also, 2TB SHOULD MEAN 2TB! Not 1.8tb!! False advertising yet again and I'm wondering how the industry gets away with it. You might think it's only 0.2 short, but that's 200 gigabytes! This is the capacity of Some of my other backup hard drives! Considering you pay a lot for an SD card which only has 64gb this is really peeing in your pocket and I'm tempted to send it back on principle.I also noticed the heat sink getting quite warm to touch, before I even assigned a drive letter. Only time will tell how this fairs under heavy load.I cannot comment on the speed yet, as I've not used it for any length, as I'm still planning how to store my stuff on which drives and which ones will be the backups.I already have an MP600 1tb for my C drive, which came with the PC and I wanted to get another one with similar speed specs to avoid bottlenecks and get the most from my system, however for the money I'm pretty peeved at loosing 200gb. That's a heck of a lot.

I was going to buy a much more expensive drive . But then learnt and did some homework that now the update is out for the PS5 and out of beta stage any gen4 drive will work . This is best bang for buck 2tb drive and it works flawlessly and faster than the 4950mbs read speed . See pics that it’s more than 5600mb read speed. In real world game playing you will not notice the speed from this drive or from and 7000mb read drive . Even writing to the drive is fast enough . One thing to note is that before I bought this drive I knew it would not fit the PS5 with the PS5 metal cover . The metal cover is needed to be put back on due to the negative pressure to cool the system down . So I bought this https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07RZ8BJ92/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1You can purchase other heatsinks but I know this drive is now screwed down with the included bracket . Corsair state using another heatsink does no void the warranty . Wish I could give this 10 stars as it’s super cheap paying £216 + £15 for heatsink .

I bought the 2TB capacity and expected it to be slower - it is but not by much. See screenshot. Easy to install, no screw provided (can buy packets of these online). I say easy to install AFTER removing heatsink. My Gigabyte motherboard has 2 NVME M.2 slots. One above graphic card and one below. Installing in the top slot would be easiest however the bottom slot gets covered by the graphic card - so off came the heatsink - easy to remove.

Got it as my main boot drive for my first pc build and I’ve had zero problems. The bios detected it’s stupidly fast! Absolutely love it!Will be ordering another before too long! 😁

The description on Amazon states "3,800MB/sec sequential write speeds". The box, which they conveniently don't have pictured shows that it has up to 1950 MB/s write, a huge difference.
