## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well
*by M***S on 1 January 2026*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 2TB NAS rated m2 SSD

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Versatile SSD for NAS
*by M***N on 23 September 2025*

Had to replace a failed seagate rotational HDD in a 4 disk NAS but wanted to increase reliability after repeated disk failures. I was concerned that mixing the SSD replacement would be a problem with the RAID array. I needn’t have worried as the new drive was quickly installed, straight in to the disk carrier and quietly and quickly rebuilt the array - saving precious data in the process. It should massively improve durability of the array and remaining disks will be updated to these as they fail so the whole array will be more resilient.
