Just subscribed! Been digging for information on SSDs to learn what all the specifications do and your videos are the most informative and fun to watch. Thanks!
Appreciate it for sure. Thanks for the sub.
Thanks for keeping us up to date. Great deals!
Thanks for watching the channel. Appreciate it.
Hi Craig, I find your videos very helpful and i'm now a subscriber to your channel.
Thank you for watching the channel. Appreciate that.
I am waiting for 16 and 17 amazon sale, Plus Thank You for info can't wait until sale you give your info.
I will do a video on that sales coming up so keep an eye open.
Craig, Thanks for posting this video
Thanks again.
Great collection of options. I just ordered an SSD based NAS, this gives me options for populating it!
Thanks and good luck with everything.
Enjoy these ssds updates ty
Thanks.
oh you have hair where's the hat I thought you were an imposter , great video
Hat 90% and no hat 10%.
Lexar 790 is very interesting. Been using Black SN770...
My SN770 has been my workhorse for sure. The 790 is a nice drive too for sure.
I've read of warnings of not going with NVMe drives that don't have DRAM. I've read stories of people using those drives that don't have DRAM and then losing data. Or the drive failing. Though, I plan to just stick with performance drives so I don't have to worry about having one drive for OS and a slower cheaper drive for the 2nd drive spot.
I have not had any issues with Dramless drives but of course it depends on the use etc.
Thank you. Helped because I’m looking for 4TB M.2 SSD to enclose for external users. Also, any enclosures you can also recommend would be helpful. Take care.
Thanks, I would search my channel as I did a ton of reviews on enclosures especially Thunderbolt 4 enclosures. I also have a few coming up in the next few weeks also. Thanks for the feedback on the video.
I live in Thailand and wanted to see how the price compares here. Surprisingly, all these drives are 10% more expensive here with the exception of the Kingston which is the same price for the 1TB but the winner over here is 2TB Kingston for only $86 vs $118 on Amazon. Further discounting may be on its way for that model. It's as fast as I need.
Thanks for the post and good luck with everything.
I was going to buy the Kingston NVMe back when it was on sale for $30, but then read of complaints of it failing. And I believe it doesn't have DRAM, which people complained about.
I have used it fine for a few years now. Reviews are sometimes hard as you normally hear about people that had issues as they are more likely to post.
I don’t need yet another SSD and still i clicked on this. It is like a drug 😂
It's calling your name... Buy it
@@craigneidelhahahaha
TeamGroup by far.
They have some good drives for sure. I use them.
What are your thoughts on the Sabrent brand of SSDs?
I haven't used them personally but may try them soon. Heard they are nice drives just never used one yet.
I watched your old video about making a boot drive for a 2017 iMac. I am trying to do the same currently. Which of these drives would be the best for that purpose?
I normally just use the SATA M.2 for this because they work fine and you don't need to worry about heat. But, they are only 500 MB/s which is fast enough to make it snappy but not as fast as it could be. As long as you have a good enclosure any of the M.2 even the NVMe M.2 drives are great to use.
@@craigneidel I appreciate the response. Subbed
Most importantly, will the prices go down? I bought MX500 for 65 CAD a year ago, and now it costs 120 CAD. Even during the pandemic the prices on SSDs were lower.
Yeah, time will tell but right now they are inflated for sure.
Lexar NM790 are DRAMless. Beware! p.s. can you talk about 4TB size? Thanks
Yes, they are but they are fine for just about anything you do as DRAMLess are so much better now then before. I use them and don't even really notice a difference.
@@craigneidelapparently the difference is in longevity though. I'm looking for a 4TB m.2 SSD with good TBW for storage that will last long, but I have no idea what features must have to be good for that purpose. Any suggestions in the consumer segment, please? Thanks
A good site to check out is Microcenter.com and search the SSDs. They normally list the TBW numbers on all drives and you can use that as a measure.
@@craigneidel that website is listed on Google but when I open it it returns this: Forbidden - ID: 7f1c3281124492cafe2a8b3ca998358d That's weird. I can visit any other website around the globe. Thanks though, Craig. Regards from Italy.
Did that Samsung NVMe problem ever get fixed where they started dying? I've always used Samsung SSD's. But recently got a newer computer to run Windows 11, and it uses NVMe. So when I get a new drive, I'm thinking of just going with Western Digital Black performance. Probably will wait for black Friday deals.
Samsung or WD are both good drives and you should have no issues with either.
@colt5189
YES. There was a firmware update that can be found on the Samsung semiconductor site or through the Samsung Magician software for nvme drives.
If you purchased a Samsung nvme manufactured in 2024 you are fine otherwise earl 2023 models will need to be updated still. Most 970 and 980 nvme drives may have been sitting on shelves / warehouses for a while so most likely will be needing updated upon first use via an external or secondary motherboard slot before writing any data to them.
@@kaislate I’ve read some still had problems even after the update?
@@colt5189 I think some may already had damage done to them if they were overheating. Buying a new one and flashing before writing data to it should be fine. Though there are many brands that have caught up with Samsung that you may consider of you are still worried.
Sabrent will probably have some good deals for Prime Day. Sleeper deal is going to be looking to see what price the Acer Predator nvme will be. Shhhh. Dont tell anyone. ;)
If people want a good priced 500GB or 1TB gen4 then really the only one to consider is the MSI Spatium nvme drives. Of course unless you absolutely need it today you should be waiting for the deals next week.
The Spatium is still an E18 / B27B but performs well even with the weird SLC cache issue. For the price there isn't anything that performs better and it is still one of the lowest cost drives for the capacity as well.
What do you think of the Western Digital 2TB WD Green SN350 NVMe Internal SSD?
Most WD are good but the green will be a little slower for power savings etc. but overall I like the drive and it may run a bit cooler which is a plus.
@@craigneidel Thanks You!
Welcome.
Can I buy a SSD with "ventura" operating system already installed????
I have never seen that.
I own a Mac. What’s a replaceable SSD? 😂
They are for external storage and backups.
