Installed in a PCIe slot and the speeds it gave me in writing and reading are 3126Mbps and 3024Mbps

Purchased at the end of January 2024 for €6 including shipping. Installed on an Aorus B450 Pro (rev 1.0) with BIOS F61a. It houses a Kingston NV2 1TB that is cooled by the Be Quiet MC1. The installation was very easy. The drive accommodates games with long loading times (BeamNG.Drive & Hogwarts Legacy). The card has a red light that indicates it is functioning (permanently on) and that the disk is in use (flashing). It is very powerful at first and if you are not in a very bright room, it distracts your attention when working or playing. Since the initial installation, I have not encountered any problems (~3 months now) despite daily extended use. I am considering buying another one for the last available slot on the motherboard if I need extra space in the future. It goes without saying that based on price, build quality, ease of installation, etc., it is highly recommended with 1000. I will update the review if anything changes in the future

It does what it says 100%. Installed on an Asrock h410m-hvs motherboard that does not have an M.2 connection with a Crucial P3 M.2 500GB CT500P3SSD8 disk.

It does what it says. If you have a free PCI-E slot on your motherboard, you can add an M.2 NVMe drive. In order for the drive to have the operating system, the motherboard must support it. I used it on a B450 motherboard to add a second NVMe drive and it works fine. If the PCI-E slot is 2.0 like in my case, then the speed of the drive will theoretically max out at PCI-E 2.0x4=2000mb/s, which is reasonable. I can't speak for its durability over time, but it is generally recommended.
