970 EVO

You may be able to find a deal on older Gen3 NVMes. I still use one in my desktop PC (Samsung 970 Evo). They'll work in the Ally. Although the Ally ships with a Gen4 from the factory, I can't think of a single PC game that will shit its pants if it runs on anything slower than the slowest Gen4. My d

Return the terrible BX500 and get a reputable M.2 NVMe ssd. Look for Samsungs 970 evo plus, 980, 990 evo plus for example. Sandisk/wd offerings are great too, just dont go with greens. Either Blue or Black series from Sandisk. T580 will run all ssds at up to 1800mbps, but with a bette drive random p

Hi there! I’m with Dell’s Social Support Team. Thanks for reaching out! The good news is that your Latitude 7480 supports M.2 SSD upgrades, so moving from a 256GB SSD to a 512GB/ 1TB SSD is a great way to give the system some extra life and breathing room. Since you're down to only 7GB of free space

You may be interested in Samsung 970 EVO Plus, WD Blue SN570, or Kingston NV2. Any of the Gen3 NVMe drives will work well, as they are all fast and quite easy to find when compared to Crucial. Just select the one that is the cheapest for you.

990 Pro and T500 are great, but definitely overkill here. Your laptop's PCIe 3.0 slot will bottleneck them anyway, and those top-tier Gen4 drives get super hot in laptops. Maybe, you can look into the SK hynix Gold P31 or Samsung 970 EVO Plus. They are perfect for Gen3 slots and have DRAM. The WD Bl

Hi, I’m using my A329S with a samsung 970 evo 1tb nvme ssd+ugreen enclosure. Works like a charm so far.

This is exactly why I purchased 4 brand new (2 of each model) 1TB Samsung 970 EVO PLUS & 1TB HK Hynix P31, under $100 each on Amazon promo. Plus a 1TB Samsung 9100 PRO, the PCIe 5.0 version, total was just over $162 shipped, purchased with the rest of my AM5 system. That was when to buy. Because mos

i feel you on being scared to open it up. your AN517-54 has two m.2 slots and they're both pcie gen3, not gen4. that crucial t500 will work but it'll run at gen3 speeds (about 3500mb/s) so you're paying extra for speed you cant use. id grab a gen3 drive like the samsung 970 evo plus or crucial p3 in

I use Samsung 970 EVO 500GB without any problems with Pi 5.
