Yeah prices are so bad now but don’t skimp! I originally upgraded ALL my consoles Xbox one S/X 6 total and 2 PS4’s at first I used PNY CS900 1tb drives the Xbox systems have zero issues being windows based basically they manage the SSD’s fine the 2 PS4’s killed those PNY SSD’s in a few months and th

yea, the PNY CS900 is actually a low quality cheap DRAMless SSD, so, it might actually be whats causing it. They are known to drop off terribly once they hit 50% full, and they have issues maintaining decent write speeds over long writes.

So, the PNY CS900 is a very low end laptop Sata SSD and not suitable for anything other then a low end workstation or a low end laptop. I would not use them for anything like ZFS or hosting VM disks. they are DRAM-Less and rely on the controller direct IO access to NAND no PLP, so they do not cache

If the laptop has already 2.5" HDD in it, then you should be able to swap it for as sata 2.5" SSD like you found. Just be aware you need some USB to SATA adapter, for the data transfer / OS clone from HDD to SSD, if you don't have any other means for that. Ps. Do mind that CS900 like to fail, it's c

Overheating on a ud90 isn't an issue unless in a desert or in a laptop. In a gaming pc with proper cooling it's perfectly fine, it's a slow gen 4 drive. Unless it's had a controller swap I'm unaware of and that's what youre referencing? P34a60 has even less potential to overheat, as it's a gen 3 dri

I am referring to the large amounts of complaints of overheating and failures in reviews. Also complaints that once the cache is saturated it hits 250mb/s speeds for longer loads. Apparently they also did bait and switch QLC in while advertising TLC. it has 8% 1 star reviews on amazon vs the micron/

SSD’s fail too had mine fail in my phat ps4 could have been the fact besides heat that it didn’t have internal cache memory and self trim onboard that is kinda important with PS4 OS , replaced it was a PNY cs900 1tb with a Samsung 870 evo and its trouble free and faster because it can maintain itsel

Hi, i bought PNY cs900 1tt ssd, it worked maybe 2 months every day using. Not sure what was that problem, but ssd died. Windows can format it, but after format it dies again. Maybe TRIM? Any ideas?

Yes an SSD depending on the model can be very efficient and in general they are I think you just need something with storage but I absolutely do not recommend the PNY CS900 it works well but is not great I recommend Western Digital or Curcial which are very good brands but I would still like to poin

You might find this helpful. The PNY CS900 appears to be of cheap overall quality hence poor performance is to be expected. If your mainboard supports, I would invest in a proper Gen4 NVMe instead of relying on a SATA SSD.
