PNY CS1030 1TB M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen3 Black

The PNY CS1030 M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen3 x4 is an excellent choice if you're looking to upgrade an older computer with a traditional hard disk drive (HDD) or SATA SSD. Its excellent value for money makes it a very attractive solution! Modest performance: With sequential read and write speeds of around 2100 MB/s and 1700 MB/s for the 1 TB version, the CS1030 doesn't rank among the fastest in its class (PCIe 3.0). Problem with QLC memory: Older tests reported that PNY had used QLC memory on some CS1030 models, resulting in lower write speeds and reduced durability. However, the current model uses TLC memory, which offers better performance and endurance, but it's important to check the exact model specifications before buying.
