Silicon Power US70 PCIe 4.0 NVMe review - Product Showcase

Product Showcase

The following images were taken at high-resolution and then cropped and scaled down. The camera used was a Canon DSLR shooting 12 MegaPixel photos. You should easily be able to place the M.2 unit into a compatible NVMe protocol motherboard. Most motherboards chipsets support it. You should, however, check out with the motherboard manufacturer if you have an x4 lane PCIe Gen 4.0 version with NVMe protocol support. Of course, these SSDs are backward compatible thus PCIe Gen 2.0 / 3.0 will work as well, however, the interconnect is halved in bandwidth per generation and that this has a large effect on performance. The latest Windows 10 iteration has an up-to-date NVMe 1.3 protocol driver natively, so it is not necessary to install a 3rd party driver.

 

 

We advise to seat the SSD under a motherboard heatsink and hide it away. If your motherboard does not offer that, please install the heatsink. Not only does that look cool, but it also keeps it cool as well. The compact M.2 2280 form factor ensures compatibility with the next-generation desktop and mobile platforms that support the M.2 PCIe slot and interface. The 80 on 2280 is short for 80mm, aka, that is the length of the card and 2280, you guessed it now .. 22mm for its width. It really is that simple.

Above the backside, there are two NAND (Toshiba/Kioxia) ICs spotted on either side, also one SK Hynix DRAM chip on each side ( 512MB each).

Silicon Power M10 External SSD review
A little while ago Silicon power released the so called M10 series SSD drive, which in fact is an SSD series that can be used externally, thus outside your PC as it comes with a Mini USB connector and special design casing. As such last week Silicon power submitted the 64GB model for review, and though the product is not targeted at a high-end market performance but leans more towards a portable mobile market .. this little drive could definitely be interesting for a lot of you guys.
