Review: Very fast, easy to install - Great little drive, good capacity for the price, I'd get another one but my mobo only has one slot. About 4x faster than my SSD drives in benchmarks. Review: 2tb and initially very slow in late 2013 MacBook. - I replaced my original 512Gb samsung SSD drive in my old MacBook late 15 inch pro retina. Restore of mac was through a mojave bootable usb (formatting the new drive as AFPS). Used paragon disk manager for the windows bootcamp side and it loaded back fine after creating an initial new bootcamp and restoring onto there. My previous disk was 512gb but the restore from time machine has take-over nearly 900gb on the new drive! bizzare, but presume I had a lot on icloud that can now fit on! The lane width via system report showed as 1. Therefore speeds were half the speed of original drive at 370MBs for read and 380 for write. The whole laptop was sluggish and unresponsive. After nearly a week of trying to get firmware updates I gave up (Instructions from Intel website don't work on Mojave) . So I prepped desertcart for a return of the drive. Just in case I reseated the drive and it failed completely coming up with ? in a box. I tried several other reseats with the same result and was convinced I had killed the MacBook! I put the original disk in and all ok and booted! I could get by! The old ssd showed width of 4 and I had a working laptop. I then did a final full reseat of the new drive including reseat in adaptor, ensuring all the way in until it clicked in the long sintech adaptor (had to be brutal btw). I rebooted and It went black for a about 3 minutes and I made a coffee. It eventually started to boot. Was it my imagination or was it fast again? System Report showed a width of x4. I ran speed checks. Read 1400MBs and Write 1200MBs. Very responsive! Eats slightly more battery than before, but very marginally as the battery is rather old and worn out showing as poor anyway. No sleep issues and performed several reboots without issue. I am now very very happy. ## Features - PCIe Performance at an Affordable Price - Empowered by Intel’s innovative QLC technology, the Intel SSD 660p offers higher capacities at a lower cost than TLC-based options. With PCIe, the new SSD 660p skips SATA and its limitations to offer up to 2TB in one drive - 2x the Capacity in Identical Footprints - These client SSDs pack more data than TLC-based storage, allowing up to 2x more capacity in identical footprints. The thin M.2 80mm form factor make sit perfect for notebooks, desktops, and mobile devices that need storage for everyday computing - The architecture of Intel QLC technology in the SSD 660p is made to intelligently boost performance. QLC and SLC “spans” on the drive adjust bi-directionally based on used capacity for the life of the product. Increases in capacity usage trigger the SLC span to decrease, and decreases in capacity usage trigger the SLC span to increase ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07GCLLKDC | | Are Batteries Included | No | | Best Sellers Rank | 38,349 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 232 in Internal Solid State Drives | | Brand | Intel | | Colour | black | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (2,653) | | Date First Available | 8 Aug. 2018 | | Form Factor | M.2 22 x 80 mm | | Guaranteed software updates until | unknown | | Hard Disk Description | Solid State Hard Drive | | Hard Drive Interface | PCIE x 4 | | Hard Drive Size | 2000 GB | | Hardware Platform | X86 | | Item Weight | 9.07 g | | Item model number | SSDPEKNW020T8X1 | | Lithium Battery Packaging | Batteries contained in equipment | | Manufacturer | INTEL | | Processor Count | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 16.51 x 12.07 x 1.91 cm; 9.07 g | | Series | SSDPEKNW020T8X1 Intel SSD 660P Series | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Intel - **Colour:** black - **Compatible devices:** This drive is compatible with servers and arrays that accept M.2 2280 PCIe drives - **Connectivity technology:** PCIe - **Digital storage capacity:** 2 TB - **Hard disk description:** Solid State Hard Drive - **Hard disk form factor:** 3.15 Inches - **Hard disk interface:** PCIE x 4 - **Installation type:** Internal Hard Drive - **Special feature:** Portable ## Images ![SSDPEKNW020T8X1 Intel SSD 660P Series Internal - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wE74hUbOL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I will use for gaming, so largest file would be 60gb. Will this drive slow down after I fill it up to 700gb of games? I have 20mbps internet** A: It isn't a significant upgrade going from sata ssd to nvme unless you often edit big videos. The 660p is slow when writing data in its native QLC mode so it begins by writing in SLC-cache mode. Once this cache runs out it's then as slow as a hard drive and as the drive fills up it will reach that limit ever more quickly and then you will regret it. It's better just to get a premium SATA SSD like a Western Digital Blue or Samsung 860 EVO. One 660p user: "I got the 1tb 660p and i am not happy with it. slc cache is way smaller than advertised. My drive is around 50% full and after ~10-11gb write boom 100mb/s." Another: "I own a 1TB 660P. I do not like the SLOW sequential writes. I find the Adata SX8200 PRO a great middle ground. It is very nearly as fast as a Sammy NVME ssd." Another: "DO NOT BUY THIS SSD in my opinion. Id say Im your typical PC user and Ive bought it brand new a month ago and sold it now after a month. It was 1TB version. Your PC will feel fast, however you will face its limitations once in a while and they are extremely annoying. I had just built a brand new PC and had to copy some big files more than once, so I encountered these problems too many times. Its sustained writes are unaceptepbly slow! Whenever you'll need to transfer bigger files, games etc. its speed drops to 100MB/s. In theory the speed drops depending how full it is, but you are buying 1TB so that you could use it and not for keeping half of it empty so it would work fast. I dont know if it is because of drivers or because of the technology but I believe it may be a little more complicated than just keeping some free space in it. Its sustained writes speed could be low in my experience even when its almost empty. I had the pleasure of formating this 1TB SSD at 100MB/s before selling it, so I know. And I tried formating piece by piece and other methods. From my experience it gets slow when you use it a lot and not necessarily when it is getting more full. Probably both of these things affect the speed. You can clear the cache in Intel software but it often helped only temporarily and 10GB into copying you get 100MB/s again." "Not the fastest, but bang for the buck except when it comes to thermals. It runs so hot I had to pull it from my work station. So be advised, if you use this chip it could even double the temperature of your system board." Mr Intel, what is a 5-year warranty? Zero years, sir, and that's a cast-iron fist-pumpin' guarantee. **Q: Es compatible con la board b450 aorus pro wifi?** A: Yes **Q: I would like to build a Linux machine. What motherboards are compatiable wih this drive?** A: Please check the manual of your computer. For example, I use a computer HP Elitebook 850 G3, I read the manual from HP, it can support NVMe PCIe drives - [M.2 (2280) 256 GB PCIe-3×4 SS NVMe]. So I bought this disk and it has worked well. I have installed with Fedora 30 Linux and MS Windows 10 Pro. **Q: Do it work in gigabyte aero 15 oled ?** A: Yes ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very fast, easy to install *by F***B on 28 August 2019* Great little drive, good capacity for the price, I'd get another one but my mobo only has one slot.
