Sabrent Rocket v1 user here - amazing. Do not buy the new ones they cheaped out when they got popular on the nand.

You mean the Q version ?

Those ones are no good for sustained file copy but also I'm lead to believe the existing refreshes of the normal rocket are not what they used to be.

Its just to store my Sample libraries on in my studio...So read speeds into Kontakt are important but writes not so much...Once the samples are copied it wont get much write action, just read action...

I was just going to get a 2 TB SSD but figure for the extra 50 and tidyness I would get a NVME....

The Sabrent seems to be the one of the cheapest TLC drives at 2 TB I can find

Well for that purpose it would still be perfect

its installed...but I fear it may have to go back...I’m only getting 3000mb read speeds... :confused:

My Samsung 970 1tb OS drive is getting 3400mb reads

I get 3440mb read but like I said they changed them to cheaper chips.

It’s advertised as 3400mb though regardless of the change in controller from E12 to E12s

And if it's Rocket Q, that's step lower tech QLC Flash drive.
WD Blue SN550 is right now the best priced TLC drive.

That’s not available in 2tb tho ?
