Intel670p Series M.2 2280 1TB PCIe NVMe 3.0 x4 QLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) SSDPEKNU010TZX1

It's a great main driver for the OS.

Works perfectly in my system. I was adding it to another drive and installation was very quick and easy. Write and read speeds very fast, faster than my internet can do so no bottlenecks. I have used the drive and its not even half full yet. Works well with my other components and showed up instantly in my settings no issues.

I needed a portable drive to store 1.2TB of video that was also fast enough for processing the video and this was the best value I could find that had good performance and a decent warranty, and that I could get next day. It didn't disappoint, copying over the 1.2TB went fast with minimal slowdown during the long copy and has been working great while the video is being processed.But... I had originally installed in into a small Orico SMART-FV25 NVMe enclosure with a minimal heatsink (more or less it's a piece of spring metal that clips to the SSD and fits inside the enclosure), and during the 1.2TB copy the drive got very hot - hot enough that you couldn't hold it (60c-70c at least). I transferred the SSD to another enclosure I have that uses the whole body of the enclosure as a heatsink (a SABRENT EC-SNVE NVMe enclosure) and this seemed to have tamed the heat for this drive.Note that it only heated up this much while doing heavy copying to the drive (which is primarily why I got it, BTW). In normal operation it gets warm to the touch based on how much it's being written to, so while writing to the drive heats it up, reading from the drive doesn't seem to be as much of a problem.Keep this in mind if you are buying this where you'll be writing a lot of files to the drive and using it for processing the material on the disk. If I were to use it in a computer as a general-purpose drive, I would still ensure that it was adequately heatsinked there to avoid any potential problems as well.

Very good NVME stick for the price I paid for it works great.

Picked 2 up on sale last year when prices bottomed out. Only regret is that I didn't get more! One is used for my retro arcade and the other is in a flash NAS (storage, not a cache drive). I have another that's been in a desktop for several years with no issues. These are single sided and run quite cool, so I have not added a heat sink, except for the NAS. The total endurance rating is lower than most 2TB TLC drives (740TBW vs 1200TBW), but my applications are not pounding these with writes. Health on all drives is 100% with no errors or bad sectors. Yes, these are slower than a 990 Pro or SN850X. Do I care? No. I use with a usb to NVMe adapter on my arcade and the other devices only support PCIe gen 3 anyway.At idle/ low use, these stay around 32-37C. That's 10 degrees less than my other gen 4 drives. Would be perfect for a laptop. I hope to buy more if there is ever another sale.

Very good NVME M.2 drive. I bought 3 of these and the first one I tried using was DOA. Intel sold it's SSD and NAND businesses to SK Hynix SSD or Soldigm. I emailed Soldigm and their customer service was very good. I emailed them pictures of the NVME M.2 drive and then had to mail the drive to them. They could only issue me a refund for the purchase price since they did not have any of these drives in stock anymore. I would of preferred a replacement with a equivalent drive. I've been using the 2 working drives for over a year now and they are fast and had no problems with them.

I've had this drive for two years now, its used mostly for storage and back ups. It's recognizable by Windows 11, Windows 10, and Fedora Linux partitioned as one large 2TB drive as GPT and NTFS. Zero issues with it. I've had it in both an M2 socket as well as in a PCIE adapter which is where it currently is residing. Great price on a genuine Intel peripheral.

I bought two of these when they were about $65US each and they're a terrific value at that price point.
