    FAQ

    Is this drive compatible with my system?
    You must have a motherboard with an available M.2 socket that supports a NVMe drive. It may be possible to use an enclosure or adapter, but NVMe boot support on older systems is not guaranteed. This drive is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 and 2.0 even with fewer than four lanes, but will be bandwidth-limited.
    What is the warranty for this drive?
    1 year or 5 years with registration. Endurance is rated at 850TBW for the 500GB SKU.
    What's the hardware on the SSD?
    This drive utilizes Phison's E16 controller with DRAM, along with 96-layer or newer TLC.

    TOP!

    Ok, costa "una fucilata" rispetto agli HD non SSD, ma è semplicemente fantastico: da quando premo il pulsante d'accensione a quando devo inserire le credenziali per accedere a Windows 11 passa meno di un secondo... what else???

    Mittlerweile zu teuer für die Leistung

    Ich habe die SSD jetzt seit knapp 1,5 Jahren im Einsatz. Keine Probleme, aber auch keine herausragenden Leistungen. Damals war es eine gute SSD fürs Geld.Gegen eine aktuelle Seagate FireCuda 530 ist sie aber vollkommen chancenlos. Die ist mehr als doppelt so schnell und wird dabei nicht wärmer als eine alte PCIe 3 SSD! Die 2TB Version der FireCuda kostet gerade mal 16 Euro mehr als eine 2TB Sabrent Rocket Plus, hält dabei aber fast 8-mal so viele Schreibzugriffe aus!!!Damals, als ich die SSD von Sabrent gekauft habe, gab es die FireCuda 530 noch nicht. Heute würde ich die Sabrent nicht mehr nehmen. Die Entwicklung geht weiter und Seagate FireCuda scheint im Augenblick das Maß der Dinge zu sein.

    Best investment for my new PC

    This thing is blazing fast really happy with it, the heat sync is quite large though and on my motherboard would get in the way of a SLI set up but that's not an issue for me

    Runs stable and cool. Still writes just as fast on a x2 lane pcie4.

    Runs stable and cool. However, later I bought the 1TB version - switched it with the 500GB C-drive; and, it still writes very fast on a x2 lane pcie4. The1TB Rocket 4 is on my main pcie4.0 x4 lane as my new C drive

    Best of the best!

    These dudes are FAST! I had purchased 2 of these from Amazon. I died after about 6 months. After contacting Sabrent and getting my paperwork in order, they replaced the drive without cost to me. I own M.2 drives from several other manufacturers however these are my favorites and I ordered 4 more from Amazon. I would recommend these drives if you are looking for M.2 drives that are really fast.

    Non e’ durato nemmeno 1 anno

    Usato sempre con il suo dissipatore con carichi di lavoro medio bassi,si e’ rotto senza dare nessun segno di cedimento.Dopo 8 mesi di utilizzo modesto si e’ rotto completamente facendomi perdere tutto, non accettabile per un prodotto di questa fascia. L’assistenza Sabrent?! Uno scherzo! Rispondo se va bene dopo 10 giorni alle mail. Consiglio altra marca, deluso da Sabrent

    Great while it lasted. Died after ~14 months.

    I got this SSD in October 2020. It worked great as a Windows drive, never had any issues. It's now January 2022, and a few days ago I started getting BSODs. After restarting, I would need to update the UEFI settings to boot from the drive. It was like the drive had been disconnected and reconnected.Time between BSODs started decreasing, and soon I couldn't even boot to Windows. The drive was still visible in the UEFI, and I was able to boot into Linux, but could not see the drive there.After a few hours of being unable to boot off the drive and trying different things, I restarted and my computer wouldn't even post. It hung at the initial motherboard manufacturer logo screen. Popped out the drive and it resumed posting normally.Conveniently, there's a 1 year warranty. So I guess it lasted as long as intended. I even got 2 bonus months. /sI'm going to try ordering a USB enclosure and see if I can get anything of it, but I'm not getting my hopes up. Learn from my mistakes: stick to reputable brands, and backup your data regularly.

    Good drive but fragile

    Good performer as others have shown. My biggest issue was that I over tightened the m.2 heatsink on my board and crushed a few mlcc caps, which was obviously fatal. Was my fault, but I would have thought the drive to be a little more durable. Will know better next time. Adding a few pictures in case anyone was curious what it looks like under the copper heat spreader and warranty stickers.

    Excellent value, great performance even at full capacity

    Exactly as advertised, this reaches 5000MB/s and maintains high speeds even at close to full capacity.Not quite as fast as the rocket 4plus, but at this price it is difficult to find justification for that higher price.I own both and notice absolutely no difference between the two unless I am moving truly massive uncut high resolution footage. (I'm talking like 60-200GB) This is a tangible upgrade over Pcie3.0, and basicly the same price, but again even those were fast enough for most people not to notice outside of large file transfer.If I was buying a new NVME drive now I would buy again.
