User questions & answers

Question:	Does this gove 1tb of extra storage on my xbox or only 330gb
Answer:	Yes
Question:	What is the read write speed?p
Answer:	The specs on this drive are Rapid PCIe Gen3x4 Interface : read/write up to 3500/3000MB/s NVMe 1.3-Support , so if your Motherboard supports PCIe Express 3x4 (PCI 3.0) which is what this drive supports, PCIe 4.0 which is only now being made available on the newest AMD chipset motherboards and specific SSD drives using the new interface will benefit from the new PCIe 4.0 speeds. Long answer short: this drive should be compatible with a PCIe 4.0 supported motherboard, but rated speeds are PCIe 3.0 for this drive.
Question:	Is this hard drive able to be used for storing basic files and documents or is it meant only for gaming data
Answer:	No. Apple began soldering SSDs to the logic board beginning in 2016. Although, it would work in either an external Thunderbolt 3 or USB-C enclosure. Cost will be relevant to the type of enclosure used regarding its throughput capability.
Question:	Does it come with the cable to hook to a computer
Answer:	I can confirm, have two working in RAID 0 as a boot drive with a fresh install of Windows 10. No issues, followed some YouTube videos for the recommended setting to get RAID working. Since I'm using a motherboard with Intel RST, a driver was needed to identify the drives during Windows install but I was aware of this ahead of the time and had the drivers pre-loaded on my USB install media. Seamless and getting every bit of promised performance on CrystalDisk.
