  Fast yes, but it died today, exactly after a year, avoid it kids, go for Samsung which is reliable, don’t think about the increasing price like I did

  Perfect, it works perfectly, and I didn't have any trouble with the installation at all!!! I'm using it on my computer for dual boot (meaning I've installed a second operating system on my computer, specifically Linux Ubuntu with the tutorial from user: @TwentyOneGR (Thank you very much for your excellent videos and your very useful tutorials, tips)

  Much less than expected. Average speeds and quite a few freezes. There are many better options in the same price category. Replaced by a Kingston as the main (C) and this one took the storage position.

  As long as it worked, it was good... After 1.5 years of light use (computer with minimal operating hours), suddenly it doesn't even turn on, nothing... I tried it on another computer, dead... We will see with the warranty etc...

  This review is about the capacity: 250 GB

  After 1.5 years of usage with only one installation of Windows 10, it suddenly stopped working. No matter what I tried (upgrading BIOS, etc.), the capacity remained 0B. I even attempted to format it and it cannot be done.

  I had bought it for 72€ about 6 months ago and back then I thought it was a good purchase until I started using it.
  I used it as an external backup for large files and I was disappointed.
  It is very fast up to about 3 gigabytes and then the memory, I suppose, gets full and its speed drops to 40MB/s.

  I bought this specific 1TB for 56 euros and it is really worth the price. Unfortunately, the photo is not of the actual product and Intenso will give you another one. In terms of build quality, it is average, you feel like it will last you around 60 to 65 euros, anything more is not worth it. I give it 4 stars because I caught it at a low price.

  It wears an SM2263XT Controller and Micron 96L(B27B) TLC Nand, it achieves the expected numbers in benchmarks (2100/1700) and has no issue with thermal throttling. At 57€ for 1TB, it is a good value for money. In the market, there are many models with 2263XT, stay away from QLC models like the NV1.

  The PC boots in 5 seconds.

  Attention! For anyone who will install an M.2 for the first time, they will need a special/very small screwdriver to attach it, as well as a very small screw for the M.2 which is not included. (For an assembly kit costing 5-10 euros).

  If it wasn't among the top 3 prices for NVMe, I might have given it 3 stars.

  Intenso generally has accustomed us to good drives, even if it is not particularly well-known as a brand. The Premium is no exception.

  Detailed benchmarks: https://youtu.be/GeVCBWSEYHk

  Positives:
  ► It delivers exactly the promised numbers in Sequential.
  ► Very good 4K/IOPS performance, surpassing even the Gen 4 Patriot VPN4100.
  ► Good quality 3D TLC NAND, with a high endurance limit (600TBW).
  ► Good price per GB for what it offers.

  Negatives:
  ► For prolonged writes above 70-80GB, the drive heats up and its speeds slightly drop (200-300MB/s). This is a non-existent issue in everyday use, but if there is the possibility to add a heatsink, it doesn't hurt.
  ► The WD SN550 is slightly more expensive, but it outperforms it in some aspects.*
  ► Only 2 years of warranty.

  Despite its negatives, I consider this drive to be a good value for money and a good solution in the current market. Its main competitors, NV1 and SN550, are a lottery in terms of what you will get in terms of controller and NAND, which completely changes their performance, reliability, etc. The Premium is consistent in the components it uses, so you know exactly what you are paying for and what you are getting.

  *Referring to the version of the SN550 with TLC NAND. If we are talking about the version with QLC NAND, the performance is considerably lower.

  It does what it's supposed to as a backup disk. Fast and reliable without costing much.

  It's worth the money. No temperatures or anything, and I have it for gaming.
