Netac SSD Solid State Drive N930E

A friend of mine just bought the 1TB Netac M.2 drive a few weeks ago and told me it out-performed the 256GB M.2 that came with his PC. I just bought a CyberPowerPC gaming PC in December that came with a 256GB SATA SSD, so I had to give this a try.Physical installation is as simple as one screw, depending on where your slot is on the motherboard. In my case, the only M.2 slot is beneath the GPU, so I had to move that before installing, but that was no issue.If you are wanting to use this as your main Operating System drive, which I'd highly recommend, since it means booting significantly faster thanks to it's incredible read/write times, there is a great free tool called EaseUS Todo Backup Free. Using this tool, I created a "backup" of my C drive to the Netac and then configured my PC to boot to that drive instead of the original C drive. Once Windows boots, your Netac will now be the C and your old C drive will be re-assigned a different letter. If you don't need the old drive, you can remove it from the PC and keep it as a backup of your Windows installation. Otherwise, you can simply format that drive and use it for spare storage.I ran CrystalDiskMark as well. As you can see from the photos, the Netac drive actually performs better than the listing, and anywhere from 3 to 7 times as fast as the SATA SSD I had installed previously.I'll update as I go if there are any issues with this drive, but I think this is a perfect solution for anyone who wants to speed up their system.

I saw the price and jumped at the chance, I was excited to try out this drive since my system only has an HDD and an SSD. For the first two months, it worked perfectly, boot speeds were impressive in comparison. Soon after, I had issues with the drive no longer even appearing in my drives, my previously installed files had all been corrupted, and I had to revert back to using my backups. It is extremely disappointing that in only a short amount of time, this product has failed on me. So if you want something that works for you in the short-term, this is your drive. I have tried just about everything on it, yet to no avail.

I had an empty NVME slot in my new PC that was asking for some love, so when I saw this product I decided to get it.Installation took 3 minutes. It would have taken 1 minute if I had a magnetized screwdriver as I kept dropping the very small screw that holds the SSD in place.Once in, I turned on the machine, formatted the drive and now I have an additional 500GB of superfast storage. I tried copying large files from my other NVME SSD and I had a rate of around 300MB/sec which is pretty amazing.At this price, if you have a newer motherboard that supports NVME M.2 SSDs, there really no reason to have the slots empty. The speed of your computer will increase significantly if you boot from one of these.

Failed after a month. PC won’t boot. Very disappointing. I don’t think I would recommend this to anyone. It’s worth spending the extra $$ and getting a better quality drive. I installed Win10 and just watched some YouTube videos for fun. Not once loaded a game or attempted to do anything complex. My PC wouldn’t boot after a simple restart of the PC.

So I finally pulled the trigger, feel stupid for not doing it sooner. Did a lot of research and decided to run 3 hard drives, m.2 for OS, games,and a HHD for multimedia. Went with Samsung Evo m.2 1TB for the game archive. 4TB 3.5 SeaGate Barracuda for multimedia (temporary) Night and day difference between the old set-up and new. Highly recommend!!!! Super easy to install just pop it in an I Ran Windows 10 Boot USB and installed on M.2. Wam-Bam Thank you....
