Fikwot FN955 1TB NVMe SSD M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4x4, Up to 7300MB/s, 3D NAND TLC Flash Internal Solid State Drive

I got this product to replace the old 1TB SSD in my ASUS Rog Zephyrus G14. I'm a software programmer and was consistently running out of space on my laptop. However, I didn't exactly want to pay a lot of money for a Samsung SSD, and this SSD was on sale for $160 for 4TB. I thought it could be a bit fishy, but considering the feedback that was already received, I thought this SSD was worth the investment. I went for the 7350MB/s model because paying extra for +50MB/s seemed pointless, and my laptop would probably not see a big difference between the two models. Upon receiving the SSD, I thought cloning would be hard. I used a simple M.2 enclosure from best buy to facilitate the transfer, along with some online software I found. Installing was as simple as discharging my hands, opening up the laptop, and plugging the new SSD in. Upon rebooting my laptop, the bit-level clone on this new SSD worked first-try, so I didn't need to reinstall Windows or any other programs. Unity now builds my projects about 3x faster and programs that took a couple seconds to open up now open instantly. The SSD is even at 2% usage maximum when playing a game. I loaded up World of Warcraft and saw a drastic increase in my FPS, and cranked up the textures in Fortnite to "Epic" and still saw an increase in performance from when I previously ran the game on "Medium" textures. In conclusion, this SSD is a lot better than other M.2s on the market and didn't require extra drivers. To clone my data, I opened up the disk partitioner and initialized the disk in partition-table format, then created a single new volume on it. From there, I was able to identify the disk in the downloaded cloning software, which made more partitions on the drive and then cloned it. Cloning 1TB (minus 156gb) of data took about 30 minutes, then I shut down the computer and replaced the drive. Upon installation, the PC immediately booted up normally and I didn't have to install any software. A driver prompt appeared at first which I accepted, and after 1 restart, the only thing different with my PC was the new storage space and some crazy speed from this new SSD. I definitely recommend this, solid 10+1 out of 10. Edit (2024-02-15): I liked this SSD so much that I ordered another 4TB model for my new workstation desktop!!! (I might plan on getting even more for the other slots) Thank you Fikwot!!!

I picked up the Fikwot FN955 4TB NVMe SSD to expand storage on my laptop for large media files, games, and backups. Installation was simple — standard M.2 2280 fit, instantly recognized by my system, and formatted without issues. Performance is impressive for the price. In real-world testing, I achieved consistent sequential read speeds around 5000 MB/s and writes near 4500 MB/s, close to the manufacturer’s claims. Random I/O is also solid, making game loading and large file transfers quick and smooth. Thermal performance has been reasonable under heavy loads, although I recommend using a motherboard heatsink if you expect to run sustained writes on huge data sets. For typical daily use, temps stayed within safe limits. No firmware hiccups, no compatibility headaches, and 4TB of fast NVMe storage at this price point is simply a great deal. So far, reliability has been flawless, with no errors or slowdowns after several weeks of stress testing. Pros: ✔️ Huge 4TB capacity ✔️ Excellent sequential and random performance ✔️ Easy installation, no compatibility problems ✔️ Great value per terabyte Cons: ➖ Could benefit from a heatsink for very large sustained transfers Overall, if you want a budget-friendly but high-performing 4TB NVMe SSD, the Fikwot FN955 is a solid and practical choice that delivers as advertised.

I’ve had this installed for a few months and have had 0 issues. But I usually don’t have my ps5 in rest mode. This drive is on par or beats the stock drive on top of the added storage space. It’s amazing to have the space for games I am wanting to try out and not having to worry about clearing space or worry about how large a game is. I keep some games on main drive but I keep it mostly free. After a new game downloads I transfer it over which takes 1-5minutes depending on size. If you’re on the fence, don’t be. Get this easy to install price point is amazing and speeds are great. You won’t be disappointed.

I have been using my 2TB Fikwot SSD (FN955) for just over a year and a half and am 100% satisfied with the choice to purchase this drive over the other options considered. It has operated as my gaming drive and at no time have I experienced any issues related to file access and storage. I regularly get full use of the data transfer speed, just a moment ago watching an installation operate at 7.3 GB/s solid. I monitor my system temps closely (w/ HWiNFO) and this SSD has maintained mid 40's backside / 30's top. If I was to choose today, I wouldn't hesitate to purchase this drive again. PC: x570 w/ AMD 5800X and DDR4 3200
