So just used Macrium (30 day free trial) which is so smooth and simple and transferred everything over in about 15mins (each drive) with no hitches or bitlocker issues. If its value you are after its probably better spent on a CPU or graphics card improvement but it’s a very very solid upgrade and much neater case solution as now fitted to the mobo rather than via spaghetti like SATA cabling.

Easy fitting, just a single screw on the motherboard. The loss is negligible. I fitted into my (2-year-old) PC but check your motherboard to make sure you have M. Good replacement for my old SATA SSD, much faster of course.

So any one claiming the chip route will significantly limit/cap speeds doesn't know what they are talking about. Works fine. Extremely fast boot, from cold to fully up and running in less than 10 seconds, this thing reads at a staggering 7,000Mb/s! Can’t fault these M.

R/W speeds are absolutely as claimed (even being surpassed by a few % in both cases)- 2nd image is in the bay directly connected to the CPU (running windows/programs)- 1st is via the Z690 chip (SSD being used for data storage). So if you're installing this in a more modern computer you will undoubtedly get faster speeds
