Still in great shape!
I've had it for 3 years on a PC that runs at least 10 hours a day every day. And unbelievably, it's still in great shape, with the same performance as when I installed it in 2022.
Kingston is a mark of confidence for me

No bugs, no latency, does its job very well, RAS as they say, I ordered 2 of 2TB and it's fine.
For an M.2 SSD, the write speed (in particular) is pretty disastrous. After 3 years of use, I find it hard to tell it apart from my mechanical drive, which is at least consistent over long file transfers.
It's less noticeable when reading, but you still end up with transfer peaks at zero for no reason. Maybe the drive is overheating, maybe there's a DMA problem... I really wouldn't recommend it.
My PC has two hard disks, but of course most software is automatically saved on the C: and that takes up a lot of space, so it gets full very quickly. I wanted to increase the memory of my PC and LDLC offered me 2 possibilities at a price that I find very acceptable. In "off-peak periods", this can happen very quickly (1 to 2 days) and for me it lasted 1 week but I was warned of the delay so I made it as convenient as possible. I am very satisfied with the result.
A really faultless ssd NV2 with kingston quality at a low price, why deprive yourself? Whether as primary or secondary storage, or as mobile storage, it does the job.
Responsive and competent staff who were able to resolve my system storage problem (Windows 11...) on a pre-mounted HP ...
I wouldn't hesitate to call on them again when I change my PC in the future.
Hello, everything was working fine until I had very, very long access times and wondered if my disks were dead. In fact no, apparently it's a known bug when the disk exceeds 60% of its capacity. So I'm disgusted that I wasn't warned and I'm going to have to buy new disks. I'm delighted. Thanks LDLC and Kingston for the seriousness.
LDLC customer for nearly 20 years, never disappointed.
SSD NV2 at a fair price.
Recommended for all your electronic purchases!
Well received, works perfectly.
Price is slightly higher than Amazon.
LDLC should concentrate on good products and reduce the quantity offered.
Limit the number of shops to be competitive.
I'm only giving it 4 stars because it didn't come with a screw and I wasn't expecting one... apart from that, everything was perfect. I recommend it.
