Will this fit my Lenovo laptop?

It fits machines that take a 2.5-inch SATA drive. Check your model's drive bay and connector before buying, since many newer Lenovo laptops use M.2 NVMe instead.

Is this faster than an NVMe SSD?

No. It runs over SATA 6Gbps, which tops out far below PCIe NVMe drives. It is a match for SATA-only systems, not an upgrade for speed.

MLC stores two bits per cell. It is an older, more endurance-oriented flash type than the TLC and QLC in current drives, and it is no longer common in new consumer SSDs.

For an operating system and everyday files, yes. For large game libraries or video work, it fills quickly; a bigger drive suits those uses better.

The drive itself. Cables, mounting brackets and cloning software are not included, so check whether your machine needs a caddy or screws.

Is it worth it over a current SATA SSD?

Only if you want the exact Lenovo part number for a repair. A current SATA SSD of the same capacity generally offers newer NAND and a lower cost per gigabyte.
