ADATA Spectrix S40G 512GB NVMe M.2 SSD review

ADATA recently started offering their Spectrix S40G NVMe M.2 SSD series, RGB bling aside, we really wanted to check out this SSD as it is based on a Realtek RTS5762, an 8-channel NAND controller we had not tested before.

Well, this looks like a silly product - an RGB heatsink which is not really a heatsink and just makes the product run hotter instead. Might have been an ok product if it weren't for the overheating. The sustained write performance when you dropped a 100GB ISO file onto it was good, that's about it.

I understand that companies need to keep products coming but they should be trying to improve on other companies short falls, i recently had a Crucial P1 1tb, without a heatsink it reached 75c but with a heatsink that had a blower fan built in it stayed below 55c peak but as this product can not be improved it feels like a pointless product venture, yes it may have good peak speeds but if you need to live in the artic to stop it throttling its not one that i will consider, would be good if HH tested it without the rgb on to see if that is the thermal issue.

Great review, Hilbert. So, in your opinion, what are currently t the NVMe SSDs with the best cost/performance available in Europe?
Cheers
