Review: Excellent price/performance/support ratio - I have a number of Samsung SATA SSDs and they've always been great. Whilst their NVMe offerings have been getting more competitive on price, I'm not certain their price premium is warranted when it comes to the Ben 3 drives. Sabrent drives have been getting excellent reviews for their performance and that is only enhanced by the competitive prices, backed up by a 5 year warranty, so I was more than happy to make them my first foray into NVMe drives. First up, according to respected reviewers, if you're going to for Gen 4 units then the Samsung 980 Pro is the mack daddy nuts. However it is priced accordingly. Sabrent are reckoned to be almost as good but significantly cheaper, and the same applies here. The drive itself, like all NVMe units, it tiny when you're used to 2.5" form factors and came in a really slinky little metal case which means it was well protected in transit. It was easy to install on my motherboard (Asus Z170 Pro Gaming) and was recognised right away, and the bundled Acronis True Image software was pretty easy to use in order to clone my old boot drive which was running out of space. It's perhaps not quite as good as the Samsung software but easy and quick enough for all but the most demanding users. Once installed the drive performed pretty much bang on the stated specs in a crystal Disk Mark test and I'm pretty sure boot up time has been reduced a little, although that may be my imagination. Still, it shows that if you have an NVMe slot there is no point buying SATA now, the price has come down enough to get excellent and capacious drives for sensible cash. The 5 year warranty and excellent max TBW endurance means I'm confident this will be a worthwhile purchase.
Review: Great value NVME drive - If you're looking for best bang for your buck in terms of both performance and £ per GB for your NVME solution, this is the drive you'll want. It costs almost the same as it's Intel drive counterpart, but offers nearly double the read/write speeds, and offers around 80% of the speeds that the very fastest generation 3 NVME drives can offer. It's a very good value compromise between those two metrics. For now, to get the most out of the performance these drives can give, you'll need to be dealing with a lot of large single file transfers, or work with HD/4k video & other media material. If you plan on having this for only gaming purposes, it will speed up things like install and game loading times, but it will not improve your frames per second rate or anything like that. For now, you will mostly get the same value and performance from a regular SSD, of course, NVME drives have a much smaller profile inside your PC case, so that may be another factor you might want to consider. I've tried running Witcher 3 on this drive and it loads pretty much instantly, and loading a saved game is exceptionally quick. I do work with large video/media files, and these drives have a super-fast cache that amounts to usually 20% of the overall size of the drive, so around 400GB of the 2TB drives I have, with my USB 3.0 media backup drives, I can get a data transfer speed of nearly 2GB/second for the first 400GB or so of data I transfer, so using them is very quick and painless. 5 year warranty on offer provided you register with Sabrent within 90 days of purchase. Tech support with them has been speedy & courteous when I've dealt with them, and firmware for the drive can always be upgraded even if the drive has data on it, as the software is stored on a separate chip on the drive. Great kit for those that will look to make the most of it, just make sure before buying that you'll be doing tasks that will allow you to use high speeds it to the fullest. I'm sure in a short few years, more games and other apps will get tailored to work at the ultra-high speeds these drives can operate at.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An excellent - and great value!
*by G***Y on 5 July 2020*

I bought this to increase the storage in my Huawei Matebook D 14 2020 from 512gb to 1tb. Given the other reviews and Sabrent product write-up, I was prepared to change the sector size from the default 4k to 512 bytes (I wanted to clone from my old WDC SSD rather than do a clean install). However, after I had initialised the 'disk' and created a single partition drive using Windows 10 "Disk Management", I checked with the Sabrent SSD Control Panel - and sector size was already 512 bytes. Perhaps Sabrent are now doing this conversion for all new SSDs or had Windows done that for me? With a handy NVME caddy, I cloned the old drive with proportional partition resizing using my trusty Paragon Hard Disk Manager 17 (that I normally use for backups). That took all of 5 minutes and I still had all of the original recovery partitions etc. I quickly swapped over the SSDs and did a check that BIOS had picked up the new SSD OK. That was it, and everything burst into life. Its works perfectly with no issues at all. Even when I work the SSD hard, the temperature has never exceeded 42 degC nor does transfer speed slow down during use. CrystalBenchMark (see photo) confirms the drive to run at the impressive advertised speeds (3450/3000Mb/s). It's also a significant improvement over the old WDC SSD it replaced (particularly writes). As such I am extremely pleased and the old SSD is now used for backups in my NVME caddy - a full backup now taking about 5 minutes! I had initially considered getting a Samsung EVO 970 as a replacement SSD. However, that costs £50 more without any significant performance benefits. As the Sabrent Rocket also comes with 5 years warranty (confirmed on product registration), I'm pleased to have saved £50! Time will tell if I made a good decision........
