Silicon Power US70 PCIe Gen4x4 M.2 2280 2TB SSD Review

Storage/SSD by stefan @ 2021-06-14

The US70 PCIe Gen4x4 drive from Silicon Power does trade punches with the products we have tested before from the same category and in many cases, it did succeed to stay on top! The 2TB version of the product comes with a 3600TB rating and 5 years warranty, so you do not have to worry about endurance even when performing storage intensive activities. US70 thanks to its firmware and controller does make use of technologies such as LDPC, TRIM, SLC caching, DRAM cache buffer, End-to-End Data protection in order to keep a high sustained write data rate for longer and also has wear leveling in order to have a similar usage throughout all internal cells.
