Compatibility: very lovely to fill the 3,500MB/s of the pcie 3 m.2 connectivity on both z390 and x470 boards.
Storage: this particular pilot-e model is highly recommended. Superb performance and huge space.
Bravo Mushkin
Anyway, I digress... this SSD works as advertised (fast!) and is incredibly inexpensive. I've used Mushkin memory before many years ago with great results, which is why I didn't hesitate to buy this SSD. What a steal!

The Bad: Crystaldiskmark is reporting 2450 MB/S read and 2650 MB/S writes. The websites reviewing this product were reporting 3300 MB/S read, 2600 MB/s write. That's a fairly big difference. I'm hoping Mushkin has an updated firmware or something.
The Ugly: To make matters worse, this product isn't even listed on the manufacturer's website. I've opened up a support ticket with the manufacturer to see how they'll respond, maybe they'll have an updated firmware. I'll report what happens here.
Other Words: In the meantime, if you want an SM2262EN-based NVME SSD, I would recommend the HP EX950 or the ADATA XPG SX8200 pro.
Edit: I'm revising my review to 5-stars. Mushkin got back to me within a few hours of my creating a support case. The person who responded was knowledgeable and assisted me troubleshooting the drive's slowness. It turns out it was my laptop, a Dell XPS 15 9570 having strange issues with this drive (strange issues in general). When I re-tested the drive on my desktop Z270 chipset system, the scores were well within expectation. I was getting 3300+MB/S read and 2800+MB/S write.

The NVMe is easy to install, installed on an Asrock B365 Pro4 motherboard.
Would I get this again? Yes, I would. Especially at its lower price than other 1TB NVMe are.
Finally bought a 2nd one so I can clone Win10 from the original. Still have no issues with the first one that I previously bought. And so far there has been no issues with this 2nd one.
I recently bought a laptop that came with a 128GB m.2 drive and I was sick of running out of memory just with the windows installation. I wanted to use that computer for work basically and I couldn't install many things on it. So I bought this little thing and the rest is history.
I really like how fast this drive is and how quick everything loads, including the OS, faster than anything I've tried so far.
I definitely recommend this for anyone looking into upgrade the storage at a great price.
You can go through the trouble of figuring out which drives uses the good controllers and keep and eye out for sales on one of them, most of which need to be steeply discounted to be good value, but lately I have just been buying these. It doesn't really go on sale because it is priced very well all the time.
Bottom line, it has a top tier controller, excellent performance, and is consistently available at a price that puts it in a strong value position.
Didn't do any speed tests. Didn't buy it for the speed, bought it for the saved space in a laptop. SATA6 vs. NVME speed difference isn't noticeable at all unless you are doing large IO (more than gaming or day to day use) .. but the smaller foot print is worth the few extra bucks.
