  • Great upgrade for the Surface Pro 8
Size: 1TB
I had read a lot of horror stories about upgrading the M.2 NVMe drive on the Surface Pro 8 (SP8). There were a lot of stories about overheating and BSOD when trying to re-install Windows. When I saw this Sabrent drive advertised on Amazon it specifically said Surface Pro compatible and that it ran cool, so I took a chance on it. I am very pleased with the result. I'll do the TL;DR part up front: I upgraded my 256GB M.2 Drive on my Surface Pro 8 with the 1 TB Sabrent Rocket 2230 NVMe M.2 drive, and the drive runs great at PCIe 4.0 Speeds according to CrystalMark 8. No BSOD and runs under 50 Celsius *EDIT*: Under maximum load, about 35 degrees celcius degrees idle/normal operations *END EDIT* according to CrystalDiskInfo 8. I was able to copy all of my files using Acronis partitioning software you get to use free from Sabrent when you purchase their drive. If you want to know exactly how I copied everything over without ever having to go into the BIOS, keep reading: UPFRONT DISCLAIMER: You will need to purchase three things to do this upgrade if you don't have them already. Two of them you would need anyway if you were to upgrade like Microsoft suggests: #4 Torx screwdriver/bit, thermal compound, and an external NVMe drive enclosure. 1) First I did purchase an external NVMe enclosure to copy the old drive to the new one. You can find them on Amazon for under $30 US. You need to make sure the enclosure can take 2230 size drives. I got one that had USB C to USB C cable and was thunderbolt compatible. Another consideration is that after you swap the NVMe drives you can use the enclosure with your old drive and have another high speed hard drive to back stuff up on, although I found you will need an NVMe thermal pad/heatsink for the old drive or it can overheat. 2) After reading about BSOD NVMe upgrade horror stories on the SP8 it lead me to articles talking about AHCI Link Power Management - HIPM/DIPM. HIPM/DIPM power management is not on by default and you actually have to do a Windows registry edit to make it available. There are some good guides on how to do this via a quick google search. I recommend you enable it and turn the feature on. 3) I had to disable drive encryption before copying files over (it is on by default). You can either disable encryption or get a USB encryption key. I chose to decrypt the drive which will take hours depending on how much data you have on the drive. You can re-encrypt once everything is over to the new drive. THIS NEXT PART IS WHERE MOVING FILES OVER AND GETTING WINDOWS SETEP ON THE NEW DRIVE DIFFERS FROM WHAT MICROSOFT WANTS YOU TO DO. 4) I cannot stress enough the kudos to Sabrent for having their own disk partition software. Acronis, which you can get from Sabrent's website, will copy all of your files over for you verbatim; no reinstalling necessary. Follow the disk cloning prompts, and the best part is it will automatically increase the size of your main windows drive to maximum while keeping your boot partition and recovery partition intact (just make sure you chose the correct cloning prompt). Acronis alone makes it worth it to go with Sabrent. 5) The SP8 comes with a front and back metal sleave for the NVMe drive. YOU WILL NEED a #4 Torx screwdriver bit (very tiny!) to unscrew the drive and screw it back in. The metal casing snaps off (do so gently so as not to bend the casing). I cleaned off the thermal compound the old drive had, put in the Sabrent drive, re-applied some CPU thermal compound I already had, and put the casing back together, then screwed it back into the SP8. A lot of videos show using a thermal pad instead of re-using the Microsoft drive enclosure. I think the drive enclosure helps distribute heat evenly back into the SP8 chassis. I turned the SP8 on and it recognized me with all of my files intact without ever having to go into the BIOS the first time. I have been running normally for almost two weeks and not a single issue. Drive runs cool and fast. Works great and couldn't be happier. I hope this helps you out if you are on the fence! ... show more

  • The only steam deck dock you truly need!
Size: Dock with M.2 Slot
I never thought I'll be here writing this review well here we are! So one thing I would like to point out is the craftsmanship of this product. The material doesn't feel cheap the dock has a solid build along with a built-in M.2 slot for more storage I've downloaded my AAA games on my 1tb SSD to test out the dock built-in m.2 slot and I didn't see any changes in speed or load times it ran perfectly fine also the charging capability is nice with a pass through charging the dock has a decent weight so it doesn't feel cheap it's sturdy and secure when housing your steam deck I almost forgotten to mention that the dock has grips on the bottom to prevent sliding or unwanted movements. The heat level is decent nothing major the dock comes with a built-in heat sink to reduce overheating from your built-in m.2 SSD slot I would definitely recommend to a friend I'm also hoping they build on to what they have with this product like a display port and a extra type C port as this dock only has one ... show more

  • Perfect for my ROG Ally
Size: 2TB
Love that now I have 2TB on my ROG Ally but you do only get 1.8TB of the storage but that is still plenty for most of your games and stuff.. easy to install and once you install it, well it does take a while since you have to re installing everything in the handheld and downloading games and apps are really really fast.. I got a steady speed between 600 to 700MB when downloading a game and it took about 30 minutes or less to download a game that has about 120GB.. the initial boost when downloading a game with this SSD was about max 900 and something MB for like 2 min and then it dropped to 600 to 700MB per second.. no problems with this SSD and just perfect for the ROG Ally.. highly recommend and worth the price for it ... show more

  • Works for Steam Deck
Size: 1TB
Been using it for a while and so far never had an issue with it. Games load fast and it can keep with download speeds, just as expected. Recommended over any other no brand names.
