SX6000 Pro 256GB

This is my first try at using a m.2 or nvme storage. Bought this one because it was inexpensive (as compared to others at $100+), and I have always had good experience with my other computer components made by ADATA. My other products form ADATA have lasted for like….forever. I like the brand for their reliability, performance, and price. My Asus Prime Z370 motherboard had no problems recognizing the drive; it showed right away. Probably not a huge noticeable difference when booting up the computer (as compared to an SATA SSD) but now my PC is extremely fast in games and photo editing. The small form factor is not bad as well. Overall, this drive is snappy, quick, and definitely a great value for your dollars.

Due to what I believe was a heatsink related improper installation on my part(but could still have been a faulty drive, as some have reported), my hard drive failed on me after several months of sporadic issues and corrupted itself, but I believe I was still able to get data out of it. After wiping it, it was fine to use again for a few months before corrupting a second time.I went through the RMA process, and while I didn't know if they were shipping me back a new replacement or my old drive until it got to my house, it turns out I was needlessly pessimistic, as a shiny new drive was delivered. This time I was sure to install it properly and it has worked for just over a year now without any issues at all.I leave this review here now, years later(my order was place on Oct 15, 2021) because I saw a few negative reviews mentioning low RMA quality and faulty hardware. While I can't entirely blame the drive for its failures, poor quality may have had an effect, but I had absolutely no issue with the RMA and have been using my replacement for a year without a single problem.For transparency, my "incorrect installation" was putting on the included heatsink before making sure I had space for it in my machine, at the time it was a laptop with its own M.2 heatsink pad, so having both heatsinks on the same side(under) caused the drive to bend noticeably. This plus the higher temperatures that a laptop typically experiences is likely what caused it to fail, but again, I can not rule out that it may have had a fault to begin with except for mentioning that my new part doesn't have the same issues. I put the new drive in the same laptop for about four months, and have been using it in a desktop for the past eight months.

Bought in January 2020. So all speeds are as specified, worked just fine all that time. Haven't used for the last half year, wanted to install to my old PC, but it turned out to be dead. System can see it, you even can initialize it and make a partition, format it. But once you cut the power and switch it on again - absolutely empty with nothing inside.UPD1Checked other comments, so I'm even "lucky" to have it working for almost 4 years.UPD2Contacted ADATA support. I have to send it to Taiwan myself for warranty since it was purchased out of the US (delivered to Saudi Arabia). The shipping is 31 USD via UPS. A new ssd (absolutely the same) is 36 USD. Well, thank you and screw it, ADATA.

This comes up as an ADATA. It's plenty fast. I got it on Prime day for a good price (less than 10 cents per-gig). It's exactly what we needed. It even comes with a tiny (and possibly counter-productive) heatsink. And it has a decent warranty. The wimpy little Celeron J4105 (Odroid H2) machine it's in boots Windows or Linux Mint in about 5 seconds! I can't believe how snappy that setup is. I recommend this drive.

Really really love these M.2 ssd’s, I originally bought two to run in Raid 0 just as a boot drive and for some of my main programs/launchers and the speeds are amazing and are well worth the money even just for one of them. Although these are insanely fast and great great bang for your buck in my personal opinion I had a drive fail on me 11/20/19, prior to that day had random pc crashes and not specifically blue screens but it just locking up completely until I got the nice Raid array failure and not recognizing the second ssd. I am not upset at all and have experienced this before not on this brand before so gonna provide a update with the Rma and will see what happens. Overall with a 5year warranty to go with and awesome speeds you can’t really go wrong. Also these ssd’s are well worth running in Raid 0, stuuuuuuupid fast read and write speeds.

Read/Write speeds are as advertised on an 8700K/Asus Z390 Maximus XI Board.The included heat sink is a joke. This drive will run hot after long sustained file transfers, such as moving a 2TB game library like I did. Would recommend placing in line with a case fan to nullify temperatures completely or attaching a decent heat sink to provide more potential heat soak and delay the thermal throttle.No M.2 standoffs/screws are included, because of course not. Those are always provided with the motherboard and if this is going in a laptop, buy them separately.

I purchased this to use as a 2nd SD card to keep my games on.I have an Adata XPG SX8200 Pro for my primary card and is definitely worth upgrading to as a primary card. However if you need something that isn't super high performance, but high value, good performance, reliable, competitively priced and comes with the same 5yr warranty as their higher end offerings, this is a great option.

Just installed it today so can't say much to it's longevity, but I'll let their offering of a 5 year warranty be a testament to that.In terms of speed, here's a photo of a test today. As can be seen, the drive was able to hit its rated speeds and then some. To be honest, I wasn't expecting it to be able to even do it, but apparently it did.If anything happens in my use, I'll be sure to come back and update this review. If there's no edit, you can assume the drive is still going strong!

Llegó antes de tiempo programado, en perfectas condiciones, se lo coloqué a mi computadora y se vio el cambio inmediato en la velocidad.

Muy buen producto
