Seagate Lightsaber Collection Special Edition 2TB M.2 SSD Review

We love our fast storage here at eTeknix, with the promise of shorter loading times and faster system performance, upgrading your storage can really make a big difference to the PC user experience. With the latest PCIe Gen4 NVMe M.2 drives from Seagate, you can get some of the fastest read/write speeds on the market right now, so how could they possibly make things even better? By adding an illuminated lightsaber design to the heatsink, of course! The Force is certainly strong with this design.

Seagate Lightsaber Collection

It doesn’t matter if you live on the dark side or not, as this SSD comes with three faceplates, allowing you quickly change it out for the lightsaber of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader or Luke Skywalker to suit your personal taste or the aesthetic of your current PC build. The heatsink isn’t just for aesthetics, of course, it’ll cool the drive and ensure it can maintain the impressive drive performance, which can deliver read speeds of up to 7300 MB/s.

This drive is available in either 1TB or 2TB variants and is just the latest in a long line of special edition drives from Seagate that span Star Wars, Marvel, and gaming franchises. You can check for up-to-date stock and prices here, as this one tends to sell out quickly when stock lands.
