My first NVMe drive - but not my first SSD. Speed is noticeably better than the SSD in my old m/c on boot but not by as much as you might expect - but I have read this is what you would expect from technical discussions on NVMe. What is noticeable is the speed of things AFTER booting. One small warning - you may have to perform a UEFI update to get this work as a boot disk reliably. Again, from what I have read, I do not believe this is related to this drive - but a factor in using NVMe as a boot disk more generally. Overall, very pleased.

I have an issues where my particular XPG SX8200 Pro uses the SN2262G chipset, ADATA seems to have changed the chipset on more recent XPG SX8200 Pro devices to use the later SN2262EN chipset, my motherboard seems to have a compatibility issue (Gigabyte Aorus z390 WiFi Pro, although the device is on the compatible list of drives, but my assumption is it was tested with the later EN chipset) where the computer will fail to post, or if it does post it fails to recognise the memory correctly and has startup/post issues on rebooting often requiring a CMOS reset. After searching for the issue it seems some other people also have issues with this and other Gigabyte z390 motherboards and the earlier G version of the chipset, but the EN version does work ok, I have contacted ADATA and there is currently no firmware for the G version and as the device ID didn’t change there is no way of knowing which device you will get until you open the packet and view the drive. The device works well in my other computer and other NVMe SSD’s work fine in my z390 motherboard, but because of this compatibility issue I have marked it down. If you know it will work in your PC then I would recommend it, but if you have a Gigabyte z390 I would read up on it first to make sure others aren’t having a similar issue, maybe it’s also a combination of my DDR4 memory. With all that said, it is a fast drive and was reasonably priced but I now have a drive that I can’t use in the computer I purchased it for. I have marked as not good quality, not because the quality itself is poor, it seems fine, more because I don’t think it makes sense to change the internals of a device and retain the previous model number making it hard to know if the device is the one you think you are buying and I now have to go through an unnecessary returns process.Read full review

Purchased for a Lenovo Legion and works flawlessly (as the second M.2 it will not fit in the Original M.2 as you need a single sided NVMe, I used a Corsair P5). The XPG is superb, fast read and write speeds, no temperature issues, everything is - technically speaking - tickety-boo.

Already had a smaller capacity version and this upgrade worked well with no issues. Peformance is great.

Very quick, easy to fit and large capacity. No problems with operation so far, hopefully it will last a long time.
