Sabrent Rocket 4 PLUS 2TB (2022) NVMe SSD review

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 03/11/2022 06:27 PM [ 23 comment(s) ]

We again review the Sabrent Rocket 4 PLUS M.2 NVMe SSD series, this round with a B47 firmware. Powered by a mightily fast PS5018-E18 controller this Sabrent offer might become one of the most compelling SSDs we' have tested in a while. If you like endurance and PCIe 4.0 performance levels breaching 7 GB/sec, of course.

my 1tb rocket dropped 13% after my initial install of games totaling just 305gb(15 games)

This sound way too fast even for qlc drive the report is either wrong or something is wrong with the drive to drop so fast would have to have about 2.5 TBW .... And the lower I saw on 1tb is either 100 or 150tbw

While my 1 year old 1tb Sabrent Rocket 4 PLUS+ is fast.... i wont buy another Sabrent, i have a few games installed on my 1tb drive using 450gb out of 931gb, funnily they are my least played games, after 2847 power on hours, 8524gb written and 17544read my drive is at 85% health, i have a corsair mp600 2tb which is older, it has 8959 hours ,9713gb writes 36225reads to it and yet is still at 99% and was previously an os drive for nearly a year.

I can see some brands prefer quantity over quality, my Adata SX8200 Pro still goes strong after having over 15 TB written and it's health status is at 99%. It's my system drive also.

Where does one get this firmware? I only see 1.2 on their site.
