The decision

Fast local project storage

Choose when

Your host has a compatible slot and fast local storage is the measured bottleneck.

Avoid when

You need portable storage, shared network storage or your only backup.

Before checkout

Verify the whole system.

  1. Match the 2 TB SKU and select the correct heatsink variant.
  2. Verify the motherboard or laptop slot, clearance and cooling.
  3. Check firmware guidance and migrate with a verified backup.

Complete-system cost

Check heatsink clearance, any required enclosure and a separate backup destination.
