Some difficulties, but it worked fine.

Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2018

Capacity: 240 GBVerified Purchase

The box as delivered by Amazon does not contain a UPC code so it make me wonder whether this is a gray market product. Without a UPC code I cannot register the product and without registering I cannot find a way to contact support. The Adata website contains no simple contact us option.
When I try a firmware update, I get a message that it cannot be done in IDE or Raid mode. I am in AHCI mode as I am replacing a Samsung EVO 850 that is in AHCI mode and I confirmed this via BIOS. And I cant' contact support! The website offers no options to update Firmware. There is no download option.
The cloning software is very old version of Acronis which failed. I struggled to make the clone bootable.
I installed in my ASUS Z170-A and it seems to be working, but the benchmarks do not approach rated speed.
I saw stellar reviews on this product and went with it instead of the Samsung EVO 970 which was $27 more expensive.
BTW: Why all these reviews about a different product? The product is M2 NVMe product not Sata.

Update: To be fair and objective I upgraded the rating. The UPC code on the box is covered by an Amazon label. Not sure why they do that and it is hard to remove. Secondly I managed to open a ticket and they responded with a Tech Support phone number. I got a tech on the line who was helpful. That number is 714-332-8735 or 714-332-8736. Their SSD Toolbox gives an error when trying to upgrade firmware. He said they have not updated the toolbox for the new product which should have been done when they released it. I was a little disappointed in the benchmark numbers I got, but everybody's PC is different. I did get it installed with difficulty due to cloning issues from one SSD to another. I could not get it to boot but probably not an issue specific to Adata. Getting their Acronis cloning software was not straight forward. I did get it work eventually using Diskpart and it seems fine. At $80, it was a great price.

Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2018

Capacity: 240 GBVerified Purchase

UPDATE: Still working fine over 1.5 years later. I have not had any issues with the drive slowing over time. It's possible the reviewer that did had filled the drive to near capacity, as I know ssd's need some free space to function properly (as much as 20% in some cases). I have posted screenshots of the crystaldisk benchmark results side by side with no significant changes. I upgraded to a Ryzen 5 3600, which may explain the slight increase in speed in some of the tests. I also posted the smart drive info. After 1.5 years as an OS drive on a gaming computer it still has 87% life left.

This easily installed in my ASUS Prime X470-Pro AM4 motherboard with Ryzen 5 2600 processor. It benchmarks very well in CrystalDiskMark. The heatsink on my motherboard keeps it under 45 degrees C while running benchmarks even. I took off a star because I was unable to download the Acronis software. I was able to find the correct serial number and register on the website, but the download was only going at a few kilobytes per second and would eventually crash. I ended up just re-installing windows and copying over the files I needed instead of cloning the drive from my old SSD. I also was not too impressed with their toolbox software. It couldn't even read the current firmware version, let alone update it. I doubt there is any new firmware yet though, since its still a new product. Adata definitely needs to work on their website and software.

I have had this for about a month now with zero hardware problems since installation. Windows definitely boots more quickly than it did from my older ssd. I also like that there are no cables to deal with and it takes up very little space.

So far so good.

Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2019

Capacity: 960 GBVerified Purchase

Getting what I paid for according to CrystalDiskMark.
You will see a dramatic increase over the hard drive in the now infamous Anthem(I still think it's decent). You won't see a huge jump over SSDs in gaming load times but in areas like Game Installations and Workloads NVME setup as PCIE will drastically improve the experience.

Cons: This might be true of all M.2 drives. IF YOU WANT TO MAKE IT A BOOT DRIVE PREPARE TO WORK. The other issue is the software stinks.(you don't need any software to get it to run. Just plug it in and set it up in the Disk Manager). You get bad temperature readings and such. I dunno what they did but it has also led to inaccurate reading in HWINFO as well. The only way to accurately see your temp is to use CrystalDiskInfo(I swear I don't work for them lol). The Software that comes with the M.2(and HWINFO as a result) reads my M.2 temperature as(and I am not making this up) -273c degrees LOL. Asus makes decent boards and I am using the M.2 Heatsink but c'mon lol.

Luckily, the CrystalDiskInfo somehow has an accurate temperature 23c idle and 33c load.
I will probably still buy another at some point because I have 1 more M.2 Slot. Gonna see how this one does 1st. It's fairly close to the top Samsung's but at a price mere mortals can afford to pay.

Five Times Faster than SATA

Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2018

Capacity: 480 GBVerified Purchase

In my homebrew computer this drive (480GB version) replaces an Intel 540s SSD, also 480GB but using the SATA connection instead of PCIe. The motherboard is an ASUS H170 Pro. If the CrystalDiskMark tests are to be believed (as I think they are), the new PCIe/NVMe Adata drive is roughly 5 times as fast, actually from 4 to 6 times as fast depending on the specific test.

I wish the box had included a little more documentation about how to install it - not even a web link. But I guess there isn't a lot that can go wrong if you're careful with the device. I used Macrium Reflect to copy the Intel disk to the new Adata disk, and Windows didn't want to find the new disk properly at first, but it allowed booting into safe mode and somehow it fixed itself. It boots normally now.

Some M.2 disks heat up under heavy load and throttle themselves to prevent overheating. My Intel 540 did that, but this Adata drive has a built-in heatsink which may help - I haven't thoroughly wrung it out under heavy load yet. In any case, the built-in heatsink provides easy attachment for a larger, better one.

I've only had this drive for a day, but am very happy so far.

Important things to know before you buy this outstanding price to performance drive

Reviewed in Canada on December 4, 2018

Capacity: 480 GBVerified Purchase

Whether you call it NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) SSD or PCI Express (3.0 x4 ) SSD, it is all the same.
This ADATA SX8200 NVMe SSD has a great performance a little less but similar to Samsung 970 EVO NVMe SSD but for much less money. It is much faster than a regular SSD especially if you use it as a boot drive ( I wouldn't recommend it otherwise, not as a backup drive anyway) and it also has a 5 year warranty.

But keep in mind that you need a motherboard that can support NVMe ( most recent motherboards do) in other words that it has a M.2 slot that supports not only regular SATA SSD but a M.2 slot that supports NVMe SSD. To also take advantage of the full NVMe SSD speed, you need to install it in the M.2 slot that has the 4 lane PCIe Express (3.0 x4) as per the instructions manual of your specific motherboard. Otherwise it may only run at half the speed if placed in another m.2 slot. Also make sure you can boot from it in the Bios with NVMe.
Even if you do not have a M.2 slot you may be able to use a M.2 NVMe to PCIe 3.0 x4 adapter card to install the NVMe drive on it. But keep in mind that most older mainstream BIOSes do not support booting from NVMe and most likely, never will.

Other important fact is that if you use it on a Windows system, make sure the operating system supports the NVMe drivers for it to be recognized during the installation process. I know for a fact that Windows 10 does support it automatically but Windows 7 doesn't.
But there is always a way...

This section concerns installation on Windows 7 only

I was finally successful installing my Adata SX8200 NVMe SSD on my Windows 7 system but I had a hard time even though I knew it would be a challenge. Since Windows 7 is an older system ( but still supported until 2020 by Microsoft) it did not have the NVMe support since it is a newer technology. If you insist on installing it on Windows 7 for any reason, you will have to inject the NVMe drivers into your Windows 7 Installer USB before you can install Windows 7 on your NVMe SSD (make sure you get the most recent version on the Microsoft website since it has USB 3.0 support as well on it, unless already know you do have it. Also If you can't download it because you do not have your product key handy, there is a legitimate tool called HEIDOC that can do this download for you but keep in mind you will still need a Windows 7 product key to activate your copy of Windows within 30 days. There are 2 legitimate website where you can buy it for cheap on SCDKey.com and on Kinguin.net. They even offer a protection for a few dollars more in case you're worried your product key wouldn't work for any reason).

As for power users out there !!! There are a few good YouTube videos and web sites that shows you step by step on how to integrate the NVMe drivers through the Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK) using the CMD (command prompt) using the DISM command line into install.wim but even if you follow the steps it may not work since you have to know which index (of the 4 indexes) represents the Windows 7 version you are installing (ex. : Windows 7 Ultimate or Windows 7 Home, etc...) to mount the Windows 7 NVME drivers. Of course there is command line for this also... :

dism /Get-WimInfo /WimFile: c:\sources\install.wim
(where " c:\sources\install.wim " is an example of the location of your install.wim location on you computer)

Since I didn't know at the beginning that there was multiple index on the install.wim that I got from my Windows 7 Installation USB drive I did not verify it so the DISM commands all worked but did not apply on my specific Windows 7 index version unfortunately.

I did not want to get through the whole process again, so I decided to use a much simpler method using a tool from Gigabyte on their website called " Gigabyte USB tool". By the way it seems to work on other motherboard brands because it worked on my Asrock motherboard. To find the tool search for "Gigabyte USB tool" in Google and select the link on Gigabyte.com then go down the list and search for "Windows USB installation Tool" to download it, install it and follow the instructions from the video I mention on the next section. --- Whether you use the DISM command line and include the /recurse option( to include the sub- folders within the location of your drivers) or the following method please consider using a 16 GO USB drive since 8 GO may not be enough space while adding the additional drivers to your Windows 7 installer USB key.

I strongly suggest you to watch a video on YouTube called "Installing Windows 7 on Kaby Lake, Skylake, Coffee Lake and NVME - LIVE" from Carey Holzman who explain it very well. He even explains how to get the updates on Windows 7 for recent computer systems for Kaby Lake and more recent ones on Intel platform and also for Ryzen on AMD plarform... there is a specific patch called Wufuc by Zeffy on github website. That worked for me !

Hope that was helpful !

A solid drive - if you get the right one

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 18, 2018

Capacity: 480 GBVerified Purchase

Overall, the ADATA ASX8200NP 480 GB is a solid SSD that matches advertised performance.

However, I had terrible experiences with the first drive that I received, which ADATA labelled as V5.0 on the box. This drive came boxed in all black packaging.

Firstly, I bought the drive as new, but it was used. This only became apparent when I ran a Windows 10 installer to discover that the drive had already been partitioned for Windows. Upon booting I ran HWiNFO which determined that over 500 GB had already been read from and written to the drive. Moreover, the drive started taking up to twenty seconds to boot to the BIOS and subsequently started occasionally BSODing with the error code DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION when I woke my device from sleep. This then started happening every time I woke my device.

ADATA list no firmware updates on their website and I had tried both re-installing Windows and extensive troubleshooting, so I sent the drive back. The replacement I received came packaged in a different box. This new box had red edging and carried the model number V6.0 on it. This new drive works flawlessly and has none of the same issues that the V5.0 drive had.

I cannot guarantee that V5.0 drives all have this problem but ADATA/Amazon are sending out different versions of supposedly the same SSD.

In short, the ADATA ASX8200NP 480 GB is an affordable option compared to the considerably more expensive alternatives from Samsung and WD, but double check the version you receive.

Adata XPG SX8200 480GB SSD Working Perfectly on my 2015 MacBook Pro 15”

Reviewed in Canada on November 9, 2018

Capacity: 480 GBVerified Purchase

I upgraded my 2015 MacBook Pro 15” with the Adata 480GB XPG SX8200 SSD.
I also needed an Adapter and after reading the reviews, went with a full size Sintech NGFF M.2 PCIe SSD Adapter, rather than opt for the mini size adapters.

The Sintech Adapter was being shipped from China. I expected it between the middle of November and early December. I was pleasantly surprised to receive it today, after only 9 days.

After installing the blank Adata SSD, I then booted up my laptop from an external backup drive. The Adata SSD was recognized straight away and I was able to format it.

Then, I opened SuperDuper and cloned from the backup drive to the Adata SSD.

After completion, I restarted my laptop. Immediately I noticed really high temperatures between
75c to 85c, which obviously, I did not expect. I left it for an hour and still the same results.

After reading a few more reviews, I removed the heat sink (with the XPG logo) that I initially installed and also, the white specs label. Straight away, the temperatures dropped to 35c to 45c and remained steady, which is where I am at now.

So far, this has been a great buy. The performance of the Adata SSD is certainly faster than Apples Samsung 250GB stock SSD and I feel some comfort knowing that it has a 5 year warranty

The drive is flawless -the installation software utterly useless

Reviewed in Canada on December 16, 2018

Capacity: 480 GBVerified Purchase

The software for copying your old drive to the new is utterly absurd. Its an OLD version of Acronis . . . It decided my hard drive had a password and without that nothing happened.

Not that in the melee I didn't sign up for another year of Acronis - not that it helped . . . I had an hour and a half on an afternoon free to do the job - it took three in total. For some reason one of the programs I tried found disk errors - I am quite certain there are none - but after doing the entire copy - stated certain errors were bad.

BUT - it was my fault for being over-optimistic - I have used software from Samsung etc - to clone drives and BAM! its done. These guys need to get their software package in order. Customer support? Really?

And I tried my library of tricks - I cannot remember what software eventually actually cloned my drive - wish I could - but I tried three at least and maybe 4.
