SABRENT Rocket 4 Plus

The SABRENT ROCKET 4 PLUS delivers flagship PCIe Gen 4.0 speeds up to 7,300 MB/s read at a compelling price point. Built on the proven Phison E18 controller with 3D TLC NAND, it's fully PS5-compatible with proper cooling and transforms gaming load times, Windows boot speeds, and creative workflows. While lacking proprietary software and brand prestige of Samsung or WD, it matches their performance for significantly less—making it the smart choice for enthusiasts.

SABRENT Rocket 4 Plus-G

The Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus G enters the market as the world's first retail SSD with firmware specifically engineered for Microsoft DirectStorage workloads. Built around Phison's PS5018-E18 controller paired with faster 1,600 MT Micron flash and proprietary O₂ GO firmware, this PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive delivers sustained random read performance that exceeds even Intel Optane in specialized testing—but DirectStorage adoption remains sparse enough that you're betting on future potential rather than enjoying immediate benefits.

SABRENT Rocket 5

The Sabrent Rocket 5 tackles PCIe Gen 5's biggest problem—thermal throttling—by delivering 14GB/s speeds that actually sustain themselves with standard motherboard cooling. Built around the Phison E26 controller with Micron's 232-layer TLC NAND, this bare drive runs at just 7W under load and stays below 60°C during normal usage. At $190 for 1TB, $340 for 2TB, and $730 for 4TB, it undercuts the Crucial T705 slightly while offering superior thermal efficiency, though the Gen 5 premium over excellent Gen 4 drives remains steep.

SAMSUNG 870 EVO

The Samsung 870 EVO represents SATA technology at its absolute peak, delivering 560MB/s sequential reads and exceptional endurance ratings up to 2,400 TBW across capacities from 250GB to 4TB. Built around Samsung's MKX controller and 128-layer V-NAND, this drive maxes out the SATA III interface while maintaining the reliability Samsung's EVO line is known for. But here's the uncomfortable truth—NVMe drives now cost essentially the same money while delivering six times the performance.

View

SAMSUNG 970 EVO Plus

The Samsung 970 EVO Plus remains a compelling Gen 3 NVMe option in late 2025 when priced competitively below one hundred dollars for 1TB. This M.2 2280 drive delivers sequential reads up to 3,500 MB/s and writes up to 3,300 MB/s through Samsung's Intelligent TurboWrite caching technology, performance that still satisfies mainstream gaming and productivity workloads even as Gen 4 and Gen 5 alternatives dominate headlines. Available in capacities from 250GB to 2TB with endurance ratings up to 1,200 TBW, the 970 EVO Plus benefits from Samsung's in-house manufacturing control and five-year warranty backing, though current pricing around two hundred dollars for 1TB significantly undermines its value proposition against budget Gen 4 competitors.
