About This Product
The PNY CS2241 is a 500GB M.2 NVMe SSD utilizing PCIe 4.0 x4. It offers faster sequential read/write speeds than PCIe 3.0 drives, suitable for general computing and light gaming. While it provides a performance uplift over SATA SSDs, it is a budget-oriented PCIe 4.0 drive and may not match the sustained performance of higher-end NVMe options in its price bracket.
Verdict
“A budget-friendly PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD for users seeking a basic performance upgrade.”
