I had my OS on a Samsung 960 Evo, it wasn't bad. But this NVMe from Adata is much better and faster. I am very satisfied by my purchase.

Abysmal software and support
Having bought this drive in the week, I decided I was going to put aside some time on a Saturday to install this SSD as my main drive and clone my existing SSD onto it. One of the reasons I purchased this product is because it came with a free Acronis license. However, after installing the hardware and navigating the shoddy support website to register the product and obtain an Acronis license I got this message:
"Acronis key redemption has been temporarily suspended until May 11, 2020. Please contact our service center for more information."
At that point that was 9 days in the future! So I email the service center and get no response - no automated response or anything to say when I can expect a reply. I'm not even sure if my support request will get seen or handled.
Sorry Adata, get your act together! This is not acceptable. If you sell a product with included software licenses then you have to provide that license immediately on demand, not several days or weeks in the future. Whatever internal IT problems you're having, get them sorted ASAP because it is impacting customers.
I'm sure this is good hardware but so far I have no idea because I can't get it fully installed.

Write and read speeds aren't as fast as advertised.
Great product overall. Nice heatsink, cheap price, and M.2.
If you take only those factors into consideration, great. There's no reason not to buy this product. However, you're advertised "read/write up to 3500/3000MB/s", in reality, you'll probably receive ~2750MB Read | ~2200 Write. Now, by no means are these speeds slow, but when you're advertising "up to" those kinds of speeds. People expect to receive metrics similar to the ones you advertise.
Still better than most of the other SSDs on the market. This brings competition to a market primarily dominated by Samsung due to reputation, I like it. The cheap price blows me away, and the heatsink isn't much but surely appreciated.
Overall: 8.4/10. Could have been better if you advertised lower numbers, or if you were to get the same performance advertised. I also have an understanding that that performance may reflect the 1TB version, but that's a totally different product.

Brilliant.
Boys, no need to get Samsung for as long as these guys are around (at £100).
I've only ever bought Samsung SSDs. Among other drives, I've got a NVME 960 Pro (250GB) in my PC just for WINDOWS (I got it back in August 2017 and it's been doing the job fine ever since).
Why Adata? I built a SFF PC for my wife as a Christmas present. She's not an enthusiast as myself so she wouldn't care Adata or Samsung. In any case, I want going to put crap on her new PC but quite the opposite. So I checked the reviews and they're quite consistent: Adata 1TB is a strong performer. So I pulled the trigger.
I compared the new build against my build and my wife PC (Adata) has faster write/read speeds than mine. Whether you'll notice it or not is a different story.
My wife's PC specs (used exclusively for typical office tasks: Word, Excell, browsing and movies):
- Ryzen 3400G
- Asus ROG Strix X470-I Gaming
- Adata XPG SG8200 Pro 1TB
- Corsair RM550x
- Raijintek Metis Plus
My rig:
- Ryzen 3900x
- MSI RTX 2080 GAMING X TRIO
- Asus Crosshair VI Hero
- EVGA 850W T2
Etc...

Plenty fast
I bought this drive to populate an M.2 slot on my old AM3+ motherboard for dirt cheap. I then realized it only had Pci-e gen 2 x4 not gen 3 and that meant the bandwidth was almost halved. So decided it was time for an upgrade anyway. Got a new AM4 system and things changed. As you can see from the pictures the drive is very fast indeed, only downside I encountered were synthetic benchmark results which vary a lot.
I did a real world test transfering a 46 GB video file to a sata ssd achieving 140 MB/s and a copy back to the drive at 260 MB/s. So, comparing to a sata ssd this drive is about twice as fast in writing and many times faster in reading.

MacBook Pro boost
As the owner of a late MacBook Pro late 2013 with a 128GB SSD, I was increasingly having to remove apps and reinstall them as I kept running out of space.
So after much research I order a NVMe M.2 adaptor card for the MacBook https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sintech-Replace-MZ-JPU128T-SD6PQ4M-128G-MacBook/dp/B01CWWAENG/ and the ADATA SX8200 512GB drive.
After backing my existing drive, I swapped out the Apple PCI SSD and replaced it with the adaptor board with the ADATA SX8200. Very straightforward and easy to install. I used a trial version of Carbon Copy Cloner to backup and restore.
The new drive works fine with MacOS Catalina, sleeping and hibernating works perfectly. Speed wise I'm nowhere near what this drive is capable of and in hindsight I could have probably got away with a SX6000 but that is a limitation of a 6 year old MacBook and not the drive. That said the read speed has doubled and the write speed is nearly 4x faster.
A worthwhile upgrade that has breathed new life into my laptop.

Dont forget the screws
This drive is quick, no doubt about it BUT motherboards are supposed to have the screws to hold them down already in place and, of course, mine didn't. I had to order them up M2 x 3mm ie tiny little buggers. Fortunately the insulation tape held until they arrived - check first before ordering.

Good Price, Good speed but my drive went faulty
I purchased this m.2 NVME SSD as my first venture into the new ssd format.
Installation was easy and was just a case of plugging it into the m.2 slot on the motherboard and securing it with a screw.
The drive came with a stick on heat spreader and you will need to use this if your motherboard doesn`t have a heat spreader supplied with it.
This drive gets quite hot under extended use.
While the drive was working it delivered excellent speed and snappiness in use and i was really pleased with it, Unfortunately just over 2 months after purchase the drive stopped working and wasn`t recognised by my motherboard any more.
Further investigation using another motherboard led to the conclusion the drive had failed and was returned to the supplier.
I am not saying these drives have a build problem far from it just that the item i got was returned due to failure.

Perfect for the right device!
Put it in my XPS 13 9550 to replace the trustworthy Samsung Evo 850 SATA 2.5 so I could fit a bigger battery than the 56w that came with it in a view to swap it with a 97w but fitting the Adata SSD noticeably cause an increase it fan noise even though temps seemed low and the SSD temperature didn't show up in Hwmonitor software, BIOS or anywhere else I've looked..
Ironically though I put it in a Dell XPS 13 9350 are it works brilliantly! Completely silent with no fans on ever and yet ultra fast and apparently minimum heat, judging by other system temperatures.
I don't understand why the same SSD can be so incompatible with one system but so welcoming of another, but arguable it happens!
Hey Ho!

Nowhere near as good as other reviews. Terrible random writes.
Verion 512GB. On brand new ultra fast pc.
Since it's unlikely with such product to be randomly different from other in batch, one can assume, reviews and testing methods are heavily misleading. Only one review with video on Amazon, shows EXACTLY the truth about Adata vs Samsung.
Not going to present to many details here, so quickly.
Small buffer, and quick overheating threshold.
Means, for first 10 gigs it's ultra fast, then drops down to 1gb/s writes. Reads are better, not much thou.
It's both buffer running out, and overheats within 40 seconds (without heatsink).
Random writes terribly low. Just about that of SSD.
Read/ write 1gb/s EXACTLY as video of other review shows.
So even with the price tag, it's NOT acceptable at all.
Returned. Got Samsung, and much better, still far away from reviews people give to it. Overheats too without heatsink, but last many times longer, before affecting performance.

Good value, great speed for the money
Loved the price, love the speed, love the capacity.
Dont love that uk product didn't include the fixing screw as seen on you tube videos.
Dont love lack of instruction or support included.
If you buy this to be your main drive, make sure you understand what your doing with regards to cloning etc.
I do have to state here that Amazon customer support is forthcoming BUT they only act as intermediaries with manufacturers who dont respond, so dont knock Amazon for trying.
Ok couple more good bits:
Once successful cloning is achieved by your own voyage of discovery learning, this drive delivers, I have added the included simple adhesive heatsink as the m.2 drives can run hot, so the more ventilation in your case the better or whatever other heat dissipation solution you come up with.
There are a lot of cloning software available but be careful as some of it is not free or fully functional. I used EasUS free 30 day trial very successfully.
Will definitely be looking for mb with at least 2 or more m.2 slots for future build as it eliminates cables/connectors required for drives and keeps the case nice and clean.

It arrived the very next day..less than £60 for 512 Gig drive...not that long ago i paid over £120 for 120 gig...yes £1 for every gig..
Anyhoo....ya dont get that tiny stand off an 3mm screw..
But looking in my motherboard box..ASUS ROG STRIX X470-F..i found a pair of stand offs with matching screws..
Whop whoop..
To install i had to remove the graphics card..no biggy ...decided to clean inside of case whilst there..
Then remove heat sink cover..
At this point ya should take pictures of ya NVMe cos ya will need the serial number to claim ya free Acronis 2013..
But personally i already own Acronis 2019...(not 2020 too many bugs for me)..
but its easy as pie to fit..
Did a fresh vanilla Windows 10 PRO 1909..(November update )
Took 5 mins ...yes..FIVE mins..
So i am well chuffed...thing is once ya put ROG heat sink cover on it ..then place ya graphics card back in..there is nothing to see...
Have upped pictures of speed...plus upped pictures of the slow Kingston SSD (its gonna be a scratch disc now..)
Also added piccys of mechanical speed...
So to summarise i am buying another after just one days use..

Unbeatable for Price
I am a gamer and build my own budget pcs so know a good value product when i see one. I was very tempted to go with a Samsung but trying to keep price down and looking at reviews online for this drive i decided to go for the Adata. I already had my OS on a Adata M.2 so know they are good drives. Fitting it was easy and Windows installed super fast. This thing is fast, and i mean fast. Loaded The Division 2 in quick time and makes every programme seem more responsive. Check the benchmark test in the pic so you get an idea of what speeds you will get. It was checked with my pc that has Ryzen 3 1300X, MSI B350M Pro, 16gb Ballisitx RAM DDR4 & GTX 1060 6GB & nothing is overclocked. So that gives you an idea of how it goes with a budget system designed to play and run 1080p games. Forget Samsung, this is what you want.

Drive not being detected in Windows.
This is a great drive, good speed and value for Money.
The only issue I had was installing Windows 10 (2004) on to it.
The drive arrived the same day (fab), installed it in the M2 slot took a few minutes. This was the only drive in the machine, checked the BIOS (X470 MO) detected instantly so this was going to be straight forward.
Booted and Installed Windows 10 (2004) from USB, I got to the start setup screen and it couldn't find the drive and prompted for a driver to be loaded. Checked vendor site no drivers (as what I expected), forums said that the Evo 970 drivers are compatible, loaded them still wouldn't work.
Dropped into the command windows from the repair section run diskpart I could see the drive/partition/volume but Windows still wouldn't work when running through the installer.
Looked at various forums/google a fair few had experienced the same issue most didn't resolve, gave up and returned the drive. I was close to doing the same thing but I was over 5 hours in by this time, after trying various methods to resolve.
When everything else failed, I was tired (early hours etc) I was going to throw in the towel. I thought one last thing, I decided to grab an old version of W10 (1604) well old, booted it up from the USB and hey detected the new drive straight away, everything worked.
I run the windows updates to 1607, this took a while, downloaded the MS assistant installer, to speed up the process and upgraded straight to W10 (2004), finshing any new patches that where needed that took a further 45-60 minutes, never looked back since.
This may seem a drastic approach to some people, I only mention it to try and help somebody else out who may be stuck in the same situation and potentially save them hours.
Conclusion fantastic drive, on par with the EVO 970 - For me the 5 year warranty and longevity helped decide between them. Only downside, it doesn't have the built-in 256 disk Encryption that the EVO has. Nothing that Bitlocker and a TPM couldn't sort out.

It's great...but should you go larger or smaller than 512gb?
I built a new desktop computer recently and decided to go for an N.VMe drive due to the touted speed increases over an SSD.
After lots of research, the Adata seemed to offer the best price-to-performance ratio and had good reviews.
When I booted up my system and checked the bios, the Adata was already identified so I didn't have to fiddle with anything. It was then just a case of restarting the system with Windows 10 loaded onto a USB stick and the install process had the OS installed within 15 minutes.
The system boots up Windows 10 pro in around 20 seconds and I'm more than happy with that...considering I was coming from a mechanical drive for my last system!
The only regret I'm having is that I may have chosen the wrong size for my own personal needs. I've installed the various software I use on the drive too, but there's still lots of room left, but not enough to have say, all my music, or all my videos saved there too.
I feel like I would have been better off getting a smaller drive and then investing in a larger capacity SSD for files, or opted for the 1gb NVMe version.
Oh, don't forget that this drive doesn';t come with screws, so ensure your motherboard supplies them (mine did) or you'll have to source some via Amaazon.

Pretty Good But Pipped to the Post
Got one of these for a fairly reasonable price (£70). I think if it was a tenner cheaper, it would have been more of a no-brainer. As it is, it's a pretty good drive. Not the fastest overall but does have slightly quicker random reads than a lot of similar drives.
My main bugbear is that I also got a WD Black for the same price a couple of weeks later. This drive is a decent amount quicker and has much better support utilities too - the AData SSD 'Toolbox' is pretty much a waste of time. On the plus side, this drive is 512Gb rather than the more prevalent 500Gb so you get a bit more room. In the end, I've whacked the WD Black in as a boot drive and am using this as a game drive. Seems to work well. But yeah, would have got 5 stars until the Black got reduced to the same price!
Please see my AS SSD benchmarks of both - these are both taken in the same M2 slot on the same PC - the WD is considerably quicker pretty much across the board.

Lightning fast
I may be biased as it’s my first experience with this kind of SSD but this thing is lightning fast and I couldn’t think of going back to using anything else. System restarts take a few seconds and for games with frequent loading screens it does make a big difference.
We did a comparison on two almost identical setups on the same game with mine running from the usual SSD and my friend running from this then we uninstalled and switched. Came out roughly double the speed on this one so for games with frequent loading like fast travel etc then this does greatly improve that experience.
