I built a new gaming rig a few months back. I thought my SATA SSDs would be fine, and did not look into using NVME SSD for my OS Drive. After a few months I was noticing the system was not as fast as system guilds I had researched. The eventual fact was my build was not running any NVME SSDs. So I did upgrade my OS Drive to NVME SSD, and I am still shocked how much better my system runs. So this got me thinking about adding a large capacity NVME for my newer game titles. I have a 3.5TB SATA SSD that has 500GB free, and the optimization utility is warning about slower performance due to low capacity. So my hope was to move my newer games to the NVME for faster load times, and hopefully gain back some performance/endurance for the SATA. I started looking, but was only ...

So my hope was to move my newer games to the NVME for faster load times, and hopefully gain back some performance/endurance for the SATA. I started looking, but was only finding 2TB capacity with decent Read/Write/IOPs. Then I found the Sabrent 4TB ROCKET NVMe M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 SSD. I had not heard of Sabrent, so I tried to find reviews. Not many had reviewed the 4TB SSD, but many had reviewed the other Sabrent SSDs. I was impressed by the positive reviews, and most feedback was consistent about the quality/value of the SSDs. The price was a bit high, but the capacity per price is lower then average. With the 5 year warranty the value is even better. So I decided to purchase it via the Newegg Market Place. I have recently installed the drive, and started moving files over. I decided to use the heatsink that came with my motherboard. Idle temps were about 33C, and while in use tend to be 45C. Crystal Disk Mark reported Read/Write of 3250MBps/3025MBps. Copying of my Steam Library (2.6TB) took a bit over 2 hours from my SATA SSD with an average transfer rate of 450MBps. I let the NVME cool down before run some game tests. Games do seem to load up faster in some respects. Texture pop in was far lower, and loading screen progress bars do fill faster in some areas. Games that have large maps (FallOut 4, GTA5) populate distant cells quickly with little resource pop in. So I would say this drive does well for games that benefit from higher read speeds. I would highly suggest the Sabrent 4TB ROCKET NVMe M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 SSD. Large capacity, good Read/Write/IOPs, and a 5 year warranty backing up the endurance of the drive. I am glad that I was able to buy this product, and not have to settle for a lower capacity. One other feature that I like is the Sabrent SSD utility. It only detects M.2 drives, but it is far better then any SSD utility I have used. Well designed UI that tells you all the useful information. Temp, current firmware, serial number, and much more that other utility software makes you dig around in walls of text. It also work with non Sabrent drives! Another value add if you ask me.

Good drive so far, see how longevity goes. Only gets about 3000 MB/s read speeds as shown below.

I spent a lot of time shopping SSDs, and this seemed like the best balance of performance and cost. With how much the prices have come down recently, I don't really know why you wouldn't get an NVME for your main drive (OS and applications). I love my startup times with this drive. Speed and life expectancy were my biggest considerations for this drive. Going off of the specs, it does well in both areas. I don't think I would notice a difference between this and a slower NVME drive, but it's definitely noticeably faster on startup than my old SSD. I use this is my main drive, with a cheaper 1TB NVME drive for file storage. That's more than enough storage for what I do, so it was hard to justify NOT going with an NVME for that second drive.

This is an excellent alternative to other brands with higher awareness. Packaging is a nice quality tin with foam so these are unlikely to be damaged during transit. The speeds are not Samsung Evo but so close and way ahead of other WD, Seagate, Crucial etc at the same price point. This is MLC with some SLC cache to get the performance of both read and write. The Sabrent Rocket Q is QLC so is likely to be slower on the read (I cannot confirm this as I have not reviewed the rocket Q). This is a good Nvme drive and is faster than most. The 5 Year warranty is untested so I cannot comment other than most competitors come with 3 years (make of that what you will). I think they are trying to establish a quality brand in SSD so you are getting a premium product at lower ... MoreThis is an excellent alternative to other brands with higher awareness.

I bought this to put into an enclosure as a cheaper way of getting 2TB external storage for the Xbox Series X. Its great for all my non-Series X enhanced games and should prove handy as additional storage for enhanced games if I come to need it. Transfer time is speedy at around 1gb every 3 seconds. So most games are moved in 2-3 mins for if you need to do that. That speed appears to be sustained for all the time. I suspect the actual bottleneck is the USB 3.1 bus but if you want a drive that for this purpose then Id recommend it as its one of the cheaper drives out there with no real concerns that I could find. Nor have I experienced any issues in using it thus far (a few weeks). The drive will need formatting to a usable state for the Xbox to be able to use it so ...

I can't express how pleased I am with the speed of this NVME. Crystal Disk was spot on with the rated speeds. My computer boots in 2 seconds! I was a little skeptical not being able to find much info on this drive, but I did find out it is based on Toshiba's BiCS 3d TLC NAND. They are the innovators so I was good with that. The price to performance is definitely worth it. 512gb nvme that performs at 3500/3000 and is only 99 BUCKS! I'll take that! The only irritation I had was I could not Clone to this drive for the life of me. I tried Macrium, Acronis, and Casper. Casper cloned it, but would not boot into Win 10. I finally gave up and just installed windows 10 fresh. After that it booted instantly and updated rediculously fast. My WIFI was my bottleneck. I am no ...

I am no pro, but I've built a bunch of PC's for myself and friends for gaming. I've used a lot of different ssd's from samsung, silicon power, zheino, pny, adata, intel, and now sabrent. It gets addicting. To be honest, once you get into NVME speeds it is hard to notice a difference from 1500 to 3500 anyway. SATA ssd is way better than platter, and NVME is better than that. This is cheap for now and competes with the best. If it lasts it's the deal of the century.
Having purchased the 1TB for under 90, WOW, it's not that often I make impulsive purchases like this, but after seeing the lower price - I just had to have one! Having continually updated myself with all things Tech/Computers, and always building my/our machines, and knowing the impressive solid reviews these Rocket M.2 ssd's have acquired, what's not to be like, excellent performance that's close to advertised speeds - at this time price!!! Luckily, our average file is relatively small, so this drive fits our storage needs perfectly. I've been very impressed since owning, again, getting close enough to advertised speeds, using as a 2nd storage, which leaves me with the thought that 'I can without a doubt recommend these Rocket SSD's' so much so, my brother has also ...

Fantastic!
This SSD is excellent and I highly recommend it! I get slightly higher than advertised speeds for at every size except reads of 100MB transfers (read is 30MB/s under but write is still above). High performance M.2 NVMe with my MSI B450 Tomahawk and Zen2 Ryzen 3600X. Getting very consistent speeds in CrystalDiskMark. I have included the results of CDM doing 5 Passes Each at: - 50MB Size, 100MB Size, 1GB Size, 4GB Size, & 16GB Size. This SSD uses the well known and used Phison E12 Controller which is known for these fast 3000+ MB/s read/write speeds. It uses TLC NAND which is much more durable than QLC. For more info on the SSD itself, I would highly recommend taking a look at the 'Spreadsheet' link found in /u/newmaxx's "SSD Buying Guide (WIP)" on Reddit.
As I haven't really heard of Sabrent before, I was a bit hesitant to purchase this, but after a bit of researching, I figured I would give them a try. Other than the issue of the spacer on the motherboard, the installation was smooth. I knew that nvme was a lot faster than sata, but it didn't really sink in until I tested after installing this. After dumping a bunch of files from my Sata ssd over to the new drive, I decided to see just how much faster it is. I started with an 8 gigabyte file I had there. After the copy command, the file just sort of popped over on the other drive... Wait.. Yeah it finished before it even popped up the copy dialogue. I progressively grabbed larger files and was finally able to get the dialogue long enough to see a progress bar at ...

I progressively grabbed larger files and was finally able to get the dialogue long enough to see a progress bar at about 20GB After a bit more benchmarking, this one doesn't quite have the same top performance as one of my samsungs, but it comes pretty close, and for the price I'm definitely happy with it. I've now had it for about a month, and so far been pretty solid with some fairly heavy use
I've only had the drive in for a couple of days. So far, to be completely honest, I don't see any difference in speeds, load times, etc between this drive and my Samsung 850 EVO. I transferred World of Tanks from the Samsung drive to this (58 GB file). It took a few minutes with an average transfer rate of 460MB/s. That is well below this drive's touted 3,400MB/s and even below the 560MB/s of the Samsung SSD. I would have expected the Samsung to bottleneck the transfer at its max speed.

I will update as time goes on or need dictates.
