But there is one problem with it on my RPi4: this thing is inoperable during power up for a longer period of time (a second or two) than my USB HDD. Totally unexpected, as SSD drives are usually extremely quick for everything, including being the first drive to come online during power up.
A second or two delay at power up wouldn't ordiinarily be a big deal, but on the Raspberry Pi 4, the first drive to come up is automatically choosen as the drive to boot from (there is no BIOS on a RPi4). That means I wind up booting from my HDD instead of the faster SSD.
The label on the bottom of the drive says "5V 2A," but I bet it actually uses much less power than that on average because this drive runs just as cool to the touch as the excellent Samsung 860 EVO that I have (5V 1.2A according to Samsung's label).

TBH 1TB is kinda small for today's SATA SSD, wish they had released the 2TB version like they did with P31. If you are looking for 2TB like I do, Sandisk/WD Blue would be your bestbet when on sale at Bestbuy, will stack with 15% recycle coupon
How is this slow? What's your definition of slow? This drive is faster than most sata ssds. I've had mine for over a year now and use it for gaming. You won't notice the difference between pcie and sata ssds in gaming. I know because I recently bought their 2tb pcie 3 about a month ago and moved all my games over. I can't tell at all, I'm sure if I use a stopwatch the gen3 will be faster, but not by much.
