    Out of order

    Does not work within 15 days of installation.
    Tried other M.2 mounts with no results.
    Bad note on the product received, not the seller (waiting for after sales service of course).

    Double-sided SSD

    I bought this SSD for its value for money, for use as a primary drive in a ThinkPad P14s Gen2.
    Unfortunately, when I mounted the SSD, it turned out to be double sided and the motherboard didn't allow for this.
    So I asked LDLC for a return, which went very well (hence my note) and bought a Samsung EVO 970pro.

    Already down !!!!

    I bought the Kingston KC2500 500GB M2 NVMe card in October 2021 and installed it in my laptop.
    5 months later, it has just dropped out of my laptop and is no longer working. It has broken down! I can't believe it! :(

    Perfect

    10/10 for LDLC, for the quality of the service. The price was right at the time of my purchase. 10/10 for Kingston. I bought these SSD's for caching on a Synology DS920 NAS, they are recognized directly and allow me to gain in performance on reading and writing small and large files.Very happy with my purchase
