buy this instead, brand new NVMe SSD with warranty , PKR 14700

checking the Reviews might be nice yknow. Kingston has been notorious for sending reviewers stock with Phison controllers and TLC memory whereas the customer models had some SMXT controller and QLC memory. It is also Dram less.

also despite being PCIe-4 its the slowest pcie 4 ssd out there and cant even max out pcie 3 speeds.

Anybody buying this should know that any reviews of this are likely to be unreliable and that any info that Kingston has provided cannot be trusted since theyre mix-matching the actual components of the SSD without making any actual notion that changes have been made.


From an actual review from amazon:
"To anyone who complains about slow write speeds (500 -600 Mb) please do study about technology of dramless SSD's. It's normal for such discs to drop write speeds after heavy loads but once disc is trimmed speeds gets back to normal (2000-2500 Mb) therefore don't blame the ssd for that.

To anyone looking for Phison E21 controller do look someplace else. I was also baited by TechPowerUp review but it's seems only reviewers recieved it.

My 1 Tb ssd is using Silicon Motion controller SM2267XT. It should be somewhat similar on the paper to Phison but in my case I've only achieved 2700 Mb rate at PCIe Gen 3. Maybe PCIe Gen 4 motherboard will provide better results."

I have no idea why you guys are comparing apples to oranges, the poster here is selling sata ssd while @Nouman20th you are asking ppl to buy nvme drive instead (which most sata ssd buyers (like me) buy sata ssd coz we dont have a free nvme slot or pcie slot to expand nvme slots). Please let the poster sell in peace

It's always dead final till you figure out that your stuff is not selling for the asking price.
It's funny when people offer 10K for something that costs 20K, most people believe that stuff on PG and OLX are stolen and we will sell them for their asking price and they will sell them with profit. Everything is getting expensive day by day and they want everything for free. Poor people with pipe dreams.
