Design and Build:
Tiny in design, and makes you really wonder how such a little thing can pack this much power. The SX8200 looks almost the same size as a piece of Notebook RAM, but it offers and does so much more.
Coming with its own heatsink to help with heat management further improves on this elegant design. The SX appears pretty sleek, albeit fragile due to its small size, but it is all part of the appeal.

- Storage Temperature: -40°C~85°C
- Shock Resistance: 1500G/0.5ms
Power Usage:
- Power Consumption: 0.33W Active (Typical), 0.14W Slumber (Typical) (*measured by power meter)
For the performance, this piece of hardware offers, it’s barely costing us any resources. It truly is a marvel of engineering.
Performance:
These NVMe drives have been making waves after waves since release, and upon using one myself I can see why. These little beauties may not look like much, but damn are they potent. The overall increase in performance they offer is out of this world.
These things make a massive difference with anything you do. Whether you’re gaming, editing photos, or making some video edits. They will help speed up the process immensely and make the entire process so much more thrilling.
They offer performance enhancements in pretty much every aspect of computer usage, even the little things go so much faster, and as we know, it’s the little things that more than often take up the most time.
MGR Gaming’s Conclusions:
Pricey for sure, but oh so worth it… They truly and completely enhance anything you can throw at them. Their operating speeds are absolutely insane. Whether you’re copying large files or tons of small ones, these little beauties make handles the entire process with little to no effort.
Even though they are priced quite heavily, especially on the higher capacity ones, but if you can afford one, you will not be disappointed. It’s a win-win every time.
