Good M.2 NVMe drive at an attractive price
1 of 1 found this helpful I installed Win 10 (pro, 64 bit) on this NVMe drive. It was a bit tricky to get the install to work (had to 1st disconnect my other SSD and HD drives before it would work). Once installed, I found it to work well and I've had no issues booting into Windows 10 from this M.2 (NVMe) drive. Boot time is fast, but not noticeably faster than what I was seeing on my old SSD drive; could be due to a configuration, but I don't think so. Since I am using this mainly as a drive for the operating system, I can't speak much to the read/write speeds. I am using a few SSDs and a single 1TB HD drive for my games and programs. If I had found a larger SSD drive for the same price I probably would have gone with that, but it is nice to have this connected directly on the motherboard. That allows me to have 4 other (SSD and HD) drives in my case.
One small complaint... HP does not provide software for management of the NVMe drive. For the most part it's not needed, but it would be nice if they made an app available for download (many SSD manufacturers do provide an app for managing the SSD drives).
