Reddit mentions of XPG SX8200 480GB 3D NAND NVMe Gen3x4 M.2 2280 Solid State Drive (ASX8200NP-480GT-C)

You should check out the Adata XPG SX8200. It been on Amazon for $110 recently without a sale, and it consistently goes on sale at Rakuten for about $93

Benchmarks vs WD Black:

The ADATA XPG SX8200 is a better deal. It's $150 and for some reason amazon doesn't charge any tax. That's like paying $133 before tax. It has 3200/1700 read/write compared 1500/900 of the Kingston for $3 more.

OP get yourself an M.2 NVMe drive. It won't take up any space and is a massive performance improvement from those HDDs. A rig with those specs has gotta be running off m.2:

Great drive, have it in my system now. Speeds comparable to Samsung 970 Evo

UPDATE:

> Adata XPG SX8200 NVMe PCIe M.2 480GB

It's $135 with faster read and random read, but slightly slower writes than the WD Black. Overall it is better for performance. But you lose 20 GB and pay $10 more no taxes on amazon link and free shipping so its cheaper.

What's the difference between this sx8200 PRO and the regular sx8200?

Gadang! for comparison I purchased this XPG 480GB for $110 last October 27th. Daaaaaaaaaaang!

Same price as the Amazon deal we had for ADATA NVMe

Consensus was that it was a good deal. Not familiar with Inland, looks good, but waiting on the experts to chime in.

This is what I ended up getting https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BLMP9ZT/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A2UXO5LPTDY3LN&psc=1

Amazon has them on for $140 as well

Edit: sold by Canada Computers lol...might be cheapoer shipping for some people i guess.

I just got the new z390 Asus Strix that has two nvme slots. I’ll double check to make sure that there isn’t any hardware conflict with PCI.

So do a 512GB Adata EX920 for OS/Games/Apps and the 500GB Samsung 970 Evo for workspace and I should be golden?

Edit: is the EX920 an HP? So run either of these two for OS?

Same drive in 480GB size, is it a bad price ? I'm not super up on that size NVME prices...

Lots of people have already responded, but you could save $30+ dollars by switching your nvme drive to an adata xpg sx8200 $139.99 tax included.

I just upgraded my 2015 mbp 13” with a nvme ssd and it was a noticeable improvement. You will need an adapter linked below.

I used an Adata 480gb ssd below for mine.

Motherboard is pretty but expensive.

Get this m.2 nvme ssd before the deal expires if you are video editing. Its larger. Only a little extra and way better for this kind of stuff. Not better for gaming or boot times tho

Why not buy from Amazon US itself? Available for $125 - which comes around 9.5k INR.

EDIT: Newegg link - $110

https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=0D9-0017-000C3

I see it sells for much cheaper in US (expected).

Here's the Crystalmark screenshot if you want to compare with other SSDs in similar price range.

Much faster than a 860 EVO (which costs about 1k less (~$15)).
