Lexar NM790 4TB SSD, M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4x4 NVMe 1.4 Internal SSD, Up to 7400MB/s Read, Up to 6500MB/s Write, Internal Solid State Drive for PS5, PC, Laptop, Gamers, Professionals (LNM790X004T-RNNNG)

I bought this to upgrade my mini computer, which I use for audio recording and composing. There were not many 4TB drives at this price point and I wasn't sure how good it might be. I needn't have worried. It works flawlessly and the benchmarks, while not the best, are still excellent and this upgrade has made a noticeable difference to the speed of my software. I can certainly recommend this on value and performance.

When I ordered my gaming PC, i tried to save on the costs of the build by scrimping on the SSD drive. It very quickly got to maximum storage and I was storing games on external USB drives.Then wondering way games were taking ages to load.Ended up looking at reviews online looking at what would be the best storage for things like games.The HDD was the slowest, then SSD, and the fastest was the NVMe SSD. So for the budget I had, it was an SSD with more memory, or the NVMe which is faster but less memory.I went for the 4TB NVMe and it didn't disappoint.I had to check that my CPU had the NVMe slot and luckily it does have one. Gutted it doesn't have two to be honest, as installing this was very easy and took 2 minutes. It doesn't require cables to the CPU nor does it require any power.Managed to transfer all my games to it no problem, the CPU recognised the new SSD with just a few clicks. Games are running better and loading up much faster. Still got loads of memory left.Probably the best upgrade I've made for the PC yet.

HiI needed more storage and plumped for this after reading favourable reviews. I'm now using it as my boot drive as it's faster than the Sasbrent Rocket which was there before. The speeds are great - just as advertised.The only minor concern was the high idle temperatures compared to my other drives. However using my motherboard heatsink it never throttled or showed strange behaviour (board is MSI Tomahawk wifi Z690 and heatsinks are pretty good). I've subsequently switched to an aftermarket heatsink. Thermalright and Xclio do very neat little SSD "sandwich" coolers for less than £10. This has dropped temps further so I've got a decent margin of safety.I was so impressed with the price and performance I bought the 4TB version for my other rig. As regards longevity the drives have a five year warranty up to 1500 TB writes for the 2TB version and 3000 TB writes for the 4TB version which seems generous. I hadn't heard of Lexar in relation to SSDs but they seem to have a good reputation for other flash memory products such as SD cards.Hope this helpsMag

I'm now using this SSD as the main (boot) drive for my iMac.So far, it's performing perfectly. And it runs a little cooler than a 2 TB drive from Samsung, which I previously used to do the job.(For older readers : This SSD holds 2 TB of data, yet is the same size as a stick of 1970's Wrigley's chewing gum. What a world we live in now!)

I wanted some additional fast storage in my computer but didn't want to break the bank too much. This drive was a bit of a punt as Lexar is not a brand I immediately associate with providing good quality storage. I'm happy to report it all works as advertised though and I've had no issues with it. I'll definitely consider buying from them again.

it loads my games up very fast, for reference it loads up Warthunder in just 25 seconds and loading times for other games are also very minimal. Great SSD.

Affordable, incredible speeds and basically a set and forget drive. Don't forget to update the firmware.

I purchased this SSD some time back for a new NAS I was putting together. Initially I did have some issues with it not being detected but it turned out to be user error not setting up the NAS array correctly. It was an easy fix and then worked brilliantly. With this being on all the time in a NAS I wanted to ensure there’s no issues with the heat level build up, long life etc and so far so good. No issues to report.
