Let’s set the scene: Picture an already beefed-up gaming setup, i7-3700K, 32gb DDR5, 4060 gtx graphics card glinting in the neon glow, fans whirring like a gentle storm — and an onboard 1TB M.2 SSD already in place. The need for more storage, annd an additional M.2 Port on the motherboard encouraged this purchase. Enter the UD90, a sleek little number promising to give us both storage and speed.
First impressions? This SSD is a stunner. It’s not just about the storage; it’s the speed. We’re talking up to 5,000MB/s read and 4,800MB/s write speeds. It’s like strapping a rocket to your data and watching it blast off to the moon. The PCIe Gen 4×4 interface isn’t just fast, it’s The Flash fast. I could practically hear my games thanking me as they loaded with such zest that I barely had time to grab a sip of my energy drink.

And let’s talk about that 2TB capacity. It’s a digital treasure chest, a cavernous space ready to be filled with AAA titles, indies, and everything in between.
But it’s not just about the space or speed; it’s the reliability. This SSD boasts features like LDPC coding and SLC Caching, ensuring that your data isn’t just fast, but also secure and stable. It’s like having a trustworthy co-pilot in the treacherous skies of digital gaming.
And RAID support? For the uninitiated, think of it as a safety net for your precious game saves and data. It’s having the peace of mind that even if one drive decides to take an early retirement, your digital world remains unscathed.
