Consumer review (newegg.com)

Several months in, still works fine

I have now installed two Transcend MTS800 M.2 SSDs into Intel NUCs (5i3RIYH and 5i5RIYH) and several months in they are both working fine. I can find no faults in the performance - sure, one can probably write tests that show other SSDs, especially...

Good card, Great value, better than Xfired 270Xs.

I bought this SSD because it was the only 500gb+ m.2 ssd available on newegg at the time. I had this in my laptop for 2 weeks before it died on me. Kinda sucks losing a weeks worth of work on programming projects for classes. From this experience I...

This ssd performed ok for two weeks. M.2 interface. Newegg's RMA policy

Died after 2 weeks of light college note taking & programming usage. Not the fastest speeds. Overpriced

Perfect For The Price

This SSD performs the best in it's class for the price. With M.2 ports now hard wired into new motherboards, this is a wicked fast drive

Yes, it's fast

Basically, if you are upgrading from a standard harddrive, you will think this thing is mind-numbingly fast. It will do a 10 second boot up. I do recommend installing a standard harddrive with it, and changing all your temp file locations to the normal...

It's a big SSD

It's not the fastest SSD on the market??? I have no legitimate complaints
