We’ve looked at the performance, but what about the price? Getting a well-performing NVMe drive isn’t as expensive as you might think, at least not when we’re talking about the Silicon Power P34A80. The 1TB version which I’ve tested today can be yours for just £117.99 or $114.99 via Amazon. The larger 2TB model will set you back as little as £249.99 or $244.99.
Design-wise, there isn’t a whole lot to say about the SP P34A80 from Silicon Power. It is a simple M.2 2280 module which is compatible with close to any modern system. There’s no heatsink attached to this drive which also makes it compatible for tight SFF systems and laptops. That said, the sticker on the top does look quite good with the mesh pattern. The commonly used colours, black and red, also make sure that it’ll match and look great in most systems.
Performance-wise, the SP P34A80 lands in the top end of our charts all the way through, proving that it’s built with a solid choice of components. The controller and NAND make a great pair which deliver what you want: Performance!
Feature-wise it has everything you want too. From the basic NVMe 1.3 support over the RAID engine to ordinary SMART. There’s nothing standing out here, but it covers the basics you’ll want from a drive such as the P34A80.
If you’re in the market for a well-performing NVMe M.2 drive, then go for it. The performance is top and it is backed by a great 5-year warranty on top of it. What’s not to like?
“Silicon Power offers a well-performing and affordable drive with the SP P34A80 which also is backed by a great 5-year warranty.”
