Excellent Quality, Performance, and Price! Best bang for the buck.
I needed a somewhat large capacity NGFF drive for a upgrade limited Dell 3050 miniPC. There are not many 2242 NGFF M.2 SSD SATA drives out there to choose from and even fewer at 512GB capacity. This was half the cost of others I found and performance is excellent at this price point. I’m not sure the little Intel Celeron processor in the Dell 3050 miniPC would even take advantage of much faster. I highly recommend this and would definitely buy another if they are still available when/if needed.Update April 2019:I have purchase another one of these KingSpec 2242 NGFF 512GB M.2 SATA SSD drives as the first one works so well and performance is on par with other name brands I have purchased for a lot more money.I have two of these 512GB M.2 2242 SSD drives in an external M.2 sata raid enclosure and am amazed at the performance. KingSpec has definitely got me sold on their SSD products. If you are looking for a NGFF M.2 SATA drive as an upgrade or replacing a old SSD that is no longer functioning, you have got to give KingSpec a try. I am glad I found this product and anticipate purchasing more in the near future.Update June 5, 2020:Have purchased a few more of these since my April 2019 review update. I have to say that 2 of these SSD drives, in a internal dual M.2 sata drive enclosure running raid 0, on a older Gen3 i5 laptop has made me put off buying a new laptop for a couple more years. This is a laptop for working in a Win10, Office365, Internet, non-gaming environment. It keeps up with with my 8th Gen i5 Intel NUC mini PC where I really don’t see any difference! These are quality SSD drives with excellent performance. The first KingSpec 2242 NGFF 512GB SSDs I purchased still have a plenty of life in them and they are in a Dell E6430 laptop that runs 24/7. I have worked in IT for over 25 years and have gone through a lot of hardware in my days. I highly recommend these KingSpec SSD drives. Not a single issue with any of them yet while I have had SanDisk, Samsung, and G.Skill SSD drives wear out or flake out due to heat. I could not be happier, unless KingSpec wants to put these on sale for less! 😉

Great 2242 SATA ssd
Works great, as long as you’re looking for a SATA 2242-form factor SSD. It even comes with the little screw.Installed with no issues in a AMD Ryzen 6800H based mini PC.

Great little drive at a fantastic price!
I used this little beauty to convert my old Acer C720 Chromebook to Linux Mint (Cinnamon). Works great and, I now have a ton of storage, especially compared to the 16GB that came with the C720. Great little drive at an outsanding price!

short time usage so far
One star off only because of short time of use, few days. Long term reports mixed, but not many choices out here for old SATA m2 drives this size. Took of immediately but took me 30 minutes trying to format in windows 11 . Windows 11 sucks here. Being a slow mini pc probably did not help either, with slower response time to do things. After formatting, working fine. Only using for backups.

So far excellent compact second SSD drive
I am an IT professional and I like to use high quality, efficient and reliable hardware. I also like to take the maximum from what the hardware can offer. I have a Lenovo T540P I7 16GB machine as a preferred work horse. It came with a variety of slots and ports at a quite affordable price to me. So I love it and love to load it with power, at a reasonable cost and optimal budget. So, it used to be with one 500GB Samsung Evo 850 SSD as a main drive and one WD 7200rpm 750GB HD in the optical drive caddy. There is a slot for a WWAN card, which was empty and I knew it can be used to connect an m.2 SATA III SSD. I purchased the 512GB little M.2 from KingSpec and put it there with a little skepticism. It fits fine and my laptop recognized it right away. I did several practical tests and was happily surprised that the little KingSpec matched the speed and the performance of the Evo. Cloned the Evo to it (120GB used space) for about 15-20 minutes. Booted the laptop from the m.2 and … quite no difference from the Evo. Opened some of my programming apps – same speed, no issues. Well, I will still be using the Evo as a primary boot drive. Wiped off the clone from the KingSpec and started using it for regular system backups. If someone wants to use it as a boot drive, why not? It’s a good product and comes with a 3-year warranty. As long as your machine can boot from the m.2 slot, all should be fine. Oh, the temperature is also cool – at least on my machine no heat or overheat at all. I give it five stars, because there is nothing not to like from it so far, including the price!

Works. So far so good.
Initial impressions, it works. All the space was detected by my old Chromebook.I think this is the highest NVME capacity I ever would want in this old a laptop.Compatible with Chromebook C720 running MintLinux.Not sure about heat levels. I don’t really plan to run any benchmarks, because why? I just plan to use this as a tinkering laptop in conjunction with my homelab.

Worked but died too soon.
This actually worked well and ran cool for about a year in my GMK NucBox-G3 but became glitchy with me getting strange and always different error messages in Linux. I could not figure out the problem reading the logs until It finally was no longer recognized in Bios. 1 Star because it should last longer.
