Intel 760P Series 2TB PCIe 3.0x4 M.2-2280 Internal Solid State Drive

When i built my new computer i thought of getting a larger SSD but since i was already pushing budget I decided to get one of the smaller sticks. Inserts very nicely into my mobo so i still have room to expand with more hard drives in my main storage slots. With the storage being so small i decided to just put my OS and a couple of smaller games i frequently play on it and that was a wonderful decision. My computer boots up very fast and those games play very smoothly. I highly recommend this stick if your motherboard has an SSD slot in it, keeps it out of the way and allows more room for expansion in the Storage for your PC and no cable management required

I used this with a mid-2014 15" MacBook pro using this adapterhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CWWAENG/There were no issues at all formatting the drive, restoring Time Machine, or using sleep/wake. No special configuration was needed, it was pretty plug-and-play.I'm only getting about 1GB/s because the mid-2014 has PCIe 2.0x4. It's still twice as fast as the stock storage.I've heard that you get advertised speeds on PCI3.0x4 interfaces, like the mid-2015.

It is a pretty good and cheap m.2 ssd. The 128GB size means it can't store a whole lot, but is great for a boot drive and programs and maybe some games. It isn't the fastest drive out there, but it was only $50 with tax so it was a great value. The read speeds are pretty good, but the write speeds are not all that impressive, and gets beat pretty handily by my Samsung 850 evo 2.5" drive. If you are on a budget this is a great drive, but for pure performance and reliability a Samsung drive is still the top choice.

i bought this for my intel nuc, which i now use as my main computer both as a desktop and a portable unit when i take a trip. matching it with windows 10 pro, 64-bit, it is almost instant on and off. fooling around, i threw it in an older laptop with windows 10 pro, and it was incredible to watch the machine boot and shutdown. SSDs are the way to go now that the price has dropped so much.
