cusideabelincoln Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 M.2 doesn't necessarily provide a performance benefit to an SSD; that will come down to the controller and type of NAND being used. But it's nice to have a budget option for this specific form factor; there are only a few cheap ones to choose from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would argue these would be best as a budget OS drive. I wouldn't recommend this solution for storing game or bulk media! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
