  • Much faster speeds than advertised.
Color: 1TB
Inland (Microcenter) markets this as a 1900 mb/s write drive when it is actually much master. It uses a Phison E12 controller which is known for these speeds. I uploaded my crystaldisk test results. This $100 SSD trades blows with drives that cost twice as much. If you’re worried about the brand, don’t be. Inland doesn’t manufacture anything. They are using high quality components made by Phison and Toshiba. The Corsair MP510 and Silicon Power P34A80 use the same hardware. With such quality NVMEs at this price range, I see no point in spending so much money on the premium Samsungs. Keep in mind that my speeds are for the 1tb model. The lower capacity models will show speeds similar to the other benchmarks. ... show more

  • Fast and Inexpensive NVME
Color: 1TB
I held off buying NVME drives for a long time because SATA SSDs were cheaper and were still hugely faster than older HDDs. But now some NVME SSDs are the same price as SATA SSDs and are faster, so it was time to upgrade. I use my Inland (Microcenter) NVME as my boot drive with a separate partition for gaming and it is flawless. Pros: + PRICE! Why buy a SATA drive when an NVME is faster, costs the same, and has no cables? + Fast! Phison E12 controller has similar performance to Samsung NVMEs that cost more than twice as much as Inland. + Uses 512e sector size for easy cloning with other SSDs/HDDs if you need to. (The Sabrent Rocket uses 4K sector size, which may cause problems with cloning depending on your software. If you clean install, this doesn't matter!) + Runs cool. It's usually around 35C when doing basic computing and jumps to a whole ~40C when loading a game. I maxed out at 66C benching with CrystalDiskMark. When copying game files from one SSD to my Inland, I maxed out at 64C. When copying game files from an HDD, it was under 60C. Unless you're working with HUGE files or copying lots of files back and forth constantly, it's not going to overheat on you. I'm using a Ryzen 1500X with a tower cooler, and my NVME slot is located between the CPU and GPU. I have a Meshify C case with 2 140mm intake fans and 2 120mm exhaust fans, so it has plenty of airflow. + If you do install an aftermarket heatsink, the drive is mostly bare. You won't have to worry about voiding a warranty by removing stickers. More manufacturers should do this! Cons - Most other Phison E12 controller NVME drives have 5 year warranties. Inland's is only 3 years. - Doesn't come with any software for upgrading firmware or monitoring drive health and such. Not a big deal. I use HWiNFO64 for monitoring drive health anyway. ... show more

  • Good value but know what is needed first
Color: 1TB
This works in a MSI Pro Carbon as a data drive but will not work as a boot drive. I have circled back with MSI, Microsoft, and both point fingers at each other. So I am using as a data drive until they determine how to get cloning / move os / new win 10 install to work such that it becomes a bootable drive. ... show more

  • Works as a windows 10 64bit boot drive with pciE adapter
Color: 256GB
I use this drive with a MSI Gaming 5 Z97 motherboard with the latest bios to boot into windows 10 64 bit 1903 version. It's kind of tricky how you have to do it, but no extra drivers are needed. Go into bios and disable all bootable drives as the boot drive and close out the bios. Wait for your windows installation media to boot up, then do a fresh install. This drive should show up in the windows 10 new install menu of drives if you're installing from a USB drive or a windows 10 instillation disk. Make sure you select this drive which will be known as a pcie ssd in your bios if you used a pcie/m.2 adapter card. And install to that drive which will be empty. Windows 10 will automatically format the drive as it installs windows 10.

  • For performance/space/price. This is it!
Color: 1TB
Looking to upgrade from Samsung 950Pro 256gb to larger NVMe. Found this Inland Premium 1tb for such a good price, went ahead and pulled the trigger. Was skeptical due to the few reviews, however, they were all positive. The worst case would send back. Pros 1. Price/size: Very affordable NVMe 1TB for about a Benjemin 2. Performance: The performance is up there near the Samsung range at half the cost or better. CrystalDiskMark snapshot added. This is after installing 55gbs on 1tb drive. Unknowns 1. Longevity: This remains to be seen. Will definitely report back should I have any early failures Issues Had an issue booting after clone. I believe this might have been due to the Samsung 950Pro running on Samsung proprietary driver which would be incompatible with the Inland Premium as it would use standard Win10 box driver. Tried Recovery of the clone without resolution. Ended up installing from scratch. Not a huge issue with the exception of time involved. However, I believe the Samsung 950Pro NVMe was cloned from a Standard SSD, which was upgraded from WinXP to Win10. Clean install was probably the right way to go in the end. ... show more

  • Runs faster than rated speeds
Color: 512GB
Got the 512 gig version and also bought a set of ssd heatsinks . A lot cheaper than Samsung evo plus which cost about 127 dollars but samsung's has faster write speeds compare to this. Got this for 70 dollars. Didn't come with any cloning software but no big deal cause I was able to use a free version of Macrium Reflect to successfully clone my drive. Also runs cool after I installed an ssd heatsink. Not sure how reliable it is compare to samsungs but so far so good. ... show more

  • Great value so far.
Color: 512GB
This is a great value for a fast drive. I’ve had it as my main boot drive for two months and have had no problems. I’ll update this review if I have any issues within the next five years.
