🛑 Rule 0: Immediate First Steps
Before attempting any data recovery from your M.2 SSD, cease all activity on the drive. Continued use, even booting your system, can overwrite lost data, making recovery impossible. Disconnect the drive from power immediately. If it is your boot drive, this means shutting down your PC or PS5 console. The M.2 2280 form factor is delicate, so handle the drive carefully to avoid physical damage.

TBW (Total Bytes Written): Up to 1200 TBW (2TB model). Q: What are the maximum speeds of this M.2 drive? A: This is a PCIe 4.0 drive, so it's very fast. It can reach sequential read speeds of up to 7450 MB/s and write speeds of up to 6600 MB/s, which is ideal for demanding applications and game loading.. Q: Does this M.2 SSD come with a heatsink for use in a PS5? A: No, this particular model does not include a heatsink. For installation in a PlayStation 5 or a high-performance PC, it's highly recommended you add a compatible M.2 heatsink to maintain cool temperatures and consistent speed.. Q: Can I install this in a laptop that only supports PCIe 3.0? A: Yes, you can. The drive is backward-compatible and will work in a PCIe 3.0 slot. However, its speeds will be limited to what that older interface can handle, which is around 3500 MB/s.. Q: How long is the warranty on the X16 drive? A: The drive is covered by a 5-year limited warranty. It also has a TBW, or Terabytes Written, endurance rating that specifies the total amount of data that can be written to it under warranty.. Q: Why would I choose the 1TB version over the 512GB for my PC? A: The 1TB drive usually offers a better price per gigabyte, giving you more storage for your money. It also provides more room for your operating system, large games, and software without you having to manage your space as closely..
