Shipped all the way to South Africa because, for some reason, 2TB 3320's aren't available here yet. What a shame!

I specifically went for this drive since it has a high read and write speed of around 4K (RND4K Q32T1) with an average of 900MB, placing it in the same league as some the top-performing 3380 drives.

With an average of 5100MB/s read and 3874MB/s write, it's more than enough because I am not going to copy files all the time, nor do any video editing or processing.

Yes, it costs 2x more than just getting a 3380 and an adapter, but I'd rather play it safe and stick to the manufacturer's intended specs. Plus, I paid $150 less than if I were to get it locally through a retail outlet, so it's a win in my book.

I'm busy installing games like crazy and haven't even hit 800GB yet.

The included 5-year warranty and 450TB of written endurance capacity are more than enough for some proper peace of mind.

I am pretty impressed with this Drive. I installed this drive into my Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360 and it works like a dream. Read a write speeds are comatable to the western digital drive which came in my computer. This is a good buy for the money.

Update after 1 year - No problems at all for a much lower price

UPDATE after 13 months of continuous use, absolutely no issues whatsoever in my Windows 10 pc. I've installed the drive into a new laptop as well recently and it's perfect as well. I'm amazed at its reliability and speed compared to the Samsung competition.

Original Review:

I was nervous as I never have heard of this brand before. I also live in another country so an RMA for a DOA drive would be a huge hassle. But the price to capacity ratio was too good to pass up. After reading many positive reviews of it, I decided to pull the trigger. It arrived today and I have already installed it with no issues.

I used Macrium Reflect to clone my Samsung 960 EVO 512 NVMe to the 1tb version of this Addlink drive and all went very smoothly. My system rebooted and saw the new drive, automatically booted from it as the C drive (after I removed the old one of course). So there are no issues at all installing this as a boot drive for Windows10. Crystal Disk Mark shows speed is just a tad faster than my 960 EVO on sequential reads, which is most important for me as I'm moving huge files in the 50-100gb range all day long.

I must say that it is a relief to see this drive perform as advertised - and installed, cloned, and booted with zero issues. I am now enjoying the extra space available for doing my work and I only wish that my motherboard supported more than two NVMe slots because I'd like to put more of these in my system.

If you're on the fence about this drive, I say go ahead and give it a try. My experience was positive and I hope this causes the prices of other brands to drop in response.

Seems a little slower than the stock SSD at times (usually when allocating during downloads) but performs well during gameplay.

I'd never heard of this Taiwanese company before, but like other reviewers I gave their product a shot only because of its excellent reviews. I'm glad I did. Since I based my purchase on these reviewers' advice, let me add mine.

I purchased the 1TB version and it arrived in a box with the M.2 SSD only. It does NOT come with an M.2 screw, so make sure you have one that came with your motherboard (or purchase one on Amazon). With a screw, the card installed very quickly and easily.

As a warning, this SSD does not come with migration or cloning software, and as far as I can tell addlink does not offer this type of software as a free (or even paid) download. So if you're replacing an existing hard drive or SSD, and want to migrate your Windows installation and files to the addlink SSD, you'll need software like Acronis True Image. Other SSD companies like Crucial come with a free downloadable version. If you're doing a fresh OS install, you're good to go.

Once installed with my Windows 10 Pro installation cloned, I got far better speeds than my old SATA SSD. addlink states you should expect 3400/3000MB/s read/write speeds, but I got above that, 3453/3229, with an Intel i7-9700K with 16GB of DDR4 3000 RAM. Windows boots in about 5 seconds. Everything is zippy and feels really next-level fast.

I can't speak to this SSD's longevity, but it's rated at 1200 Terabytes written, an MTFB (mean/average time between failures) of 1.8 million hours, and comes with a 5 year warranty.

If you're looking for a lot of blazing fast storage at a great price, it's hard to see how you could go wrong. Highly recommended.
