The C930 SSD is available in 1TB and 2TB capacities. It’s a shame we can’t get a 4TB version which seems to be more popular with lowering prices of SSD. Still, for most users, 1TB is just right, and 2TB will be more than enough.

Worth mentioning is a long five-year warranty. Not many SSD have such a long warranty. There are only single products with more than what KLEVV offers for its top series. On the other hand, most users will replace a SSD, or even the whole computer in five years.

The SSD arrived in perfect condition with 0 hours and 0 GB written on the counter.

 

During tests, the SSD used included a heatsink and motherboard heatsink. In both cases, we haven’t noticed throttling. If AIDA64 is correct, then it can be caused by a very high temperature limit which suggests throttling at 120°C. It’s hard to believe it’s true as most M.2 SSDs have it as high as 70-75°C.

So far, so good. Now let’s take a look at the product itself.
