Samsung 970 EVO Plus Internal SSD Reviews
7th Place Out of 8 Tested
By Robert
Rated 3 out of 5
Date: 2023-09-12
I tested with with 7 other M.2 2280 ssds and it came in 7th place. It is not the fastest in my test setup, but it seems solid and the biggest difference was in the writes not the more important reads. The reads were strong. My test environment is a bit different. I had ssds from PNY, WD, Samsung, and OWC in the testing. Samsung good though at reporting the TBW and other data about the ssd itself, where some of the others we not as good. Furthermore, some would slow down to a crawl especially on writes, but this ssd did not. It is fine in my environment, but not the best price point relative to performance. I hope this helps someone.
It works like a charm!

Will this drive work in acer predator triton 700 in a raid 0 configuration?
I imagine so if that PC has 2 M.2 slots that are compatible and using both wont compromise other slots like Sata ones you may want.
However these drives are so fast I cannot imagine what could be gained by that. Unless just going for some benchmark.

If the Dell unit can accept an M.2 SSD then yes it should work. Check with Dell tech support or our local computer shop.

Does this ssd support Asus S300MA-DH701 Desktop Computer ??
Techs specs says there is an M.2 expansion slot available for storage:
"1x M.2 connector for storage"
https://www.asus.com/us/Displays-Desktops/Tower-PCs/Everyday-use/ASUS-S300MA/techspec/
However you probably want to open the case and check that the port is actually available. It's possible that the M.2 is already used by your current NVME SSD

NAS Cache question: Looking to use this or WD Red SN700 as a SSD cache for my Synology DS1821+ (currently in use with data on HDD) and was wondering if adding these will remove current data on HDD?
No, adding a cache drive to a NAS unit will not in any way affect the data stored within the array. Cache drives are used to improve performance and are separate from the NAS's main storage pool.

What's the temperature range of it? I understand it will work fine in a PC because of better cooling system. Would you suggest to use it in a laptop? Or you would suggest another model?
Did you visit Samsung's web site to look for this information? I'm using one in a laptop without any problem, but then, I haven't ever left this sitting on the dashboard of a black pickup with the windows closed, parked in Phoenix at midday in July and expected it to work.
