- Is the VisionTek DLX3 worth it over a PCIe 4.0 drive?
- Only if the machine's slot is PCIe 3.0 or the budget is tight. A PCIe 4.0 drive is faster, but boot times and app loading feel similar for most users.
- Will it fit my laptop or desktop?
- It fits any M.2 2280 slot that supports NVMe. Check that your slot is keyed for NVMe and not SATA-only before buying.
- Does it have a DRAM cache?
- VisionTek does not list a DRAM cache for the DLX3. Expect sustained writes on large files to fall below the 2,900 MB/s peak.
- How much space will 256GB actually give me?
- About 238GB after formatting. Windows and core apps take a large share, so plan on it as a boot drive plus a few games, or as secondary storage.
- What is in the box?
- The drive itself. There is no heatsink, screw or mounting hardware included, so check your board has an M.2 screw.
- Is it good for a PlayStation 5?
- No. The PS5 requires a PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive with a heatsink, and this is PCIe 3.0.
