The P41 is the ideal choice for workstation builds and PC gamers alike. It may run warm during normal use without a heat sink, but it does not thermal throttle at intense loads. SK Hynix provides an incredibly value-oriented SSD (high performance-to-cost ratio). For example, this P41 is priced under slower SATA III-based SSDs. The P41 is suitable for the OS drive where you install your OS like Windows II because it boots up very fast and can support features like Direct Storage. This drive is great for people who want the fastest gaming load times like in Genshin Impact or Minecraft RTX. Pro tip: research if your motherboard or laptop model can support PCIe 4.0 and then use this drive instead of the OEM SSDs for a convenient upgrade. Overall, SK Hynix provided an insane bargain for consumers by introducing their P41 line.
*Please note I had installed the P41 right behind a 3080 Ti and was loading Genshin Impact, so the temperature had a variance in HWiNFO

This is perfect for my editing (FCPX) [Final Cut Pro]. Very fast (for external) [920Mbs Read & 820Mbs Write] Internal would obviously be faster, also depends on your enclosure. Great price for a 2Tb ssd NVMe. Hope this helps. ✌🏻

Good Value for price – not as fast as advertised

Bought the SK Hynix P41 Platinum Gen 4 1TB to replace Samsung EVO 970 Gen 3 512GB.
Wanted faster Read and especially Write speed for video editing.
Pros:
Very easy to install & clone with free Macrium Reflect – my MB has 2 M2 Gen 4 slots & PCIe M2 riser board.
P41 uses existing Windows drivers – nothing to install
Placed P41 in 2nd Gen 4 M2 slot, cloned old EFIS boot partition & 160 GB C: System partition, then switched over to boot from P41 with no probs.
Cons:
No supplied heatsink – runs hotter under load than M2 Gen 3, but not as warm as other Gen 4 drives – did fine with basic ASUS MB heatsink.
SK Hynix website awful – all Sales, no real Support – tried for 2 days to download Hynix Drive manager software – would download very slowly, then crash. Had to get file from 3rd party (Softpedia) Software is so limited as to be not worth downloading.
Other:
Strange Write results on ChrystalDiskMark. I have both a C: partition and D: partition on the P41. The D: partition yields SEQ read of 6595MB/s and Write of 6041 MB/s – not what Hynix claimed, but they do say “UP TO” for their specs. The C partition has similar Read specs, but only can manage 3285 MB/s Write speed.
Same M2 NVME Gen 4 slot, same P41 drive, just different partitions. Tried the P41 in both the CPU linked M2 Gen 4 slot and the X570 chipset Gen 4 linked slot – same disparity
System is ASUS TUF X570 MB, Ryzen 5900X, DDR4 4000 mem, latest AGESA V2 PI 1.2.0.7 BIOS and AMD chipset drivers.
When loading ~175 GB files on D: drive, did run into the “SLC cache full” speed drop – didn’t expect it at that level of transfer, but did recover in a few mins.
Overall, for the price, this is a good value for the average user. If you have money to burn on better drive or just have to have the one with the absolute highest specs, do so.
For the rest of us, this is an affordable & more than capable Gen 4 drive.

good speeds, runs a bit hot 70c
Reviewed in Canada on December 2, 2023
good speeds as advertised. both read and write.
only cons is it reached 70C while under stress test. (bare bone)
installed a good beefy heatsink for it. When under gaming loads its around 50C only.
now lets see how long this NVMe lasts. if you don’t hear back from me again then this drive stays 5 stars.
SSD ottimo, velocità dichiarate reali

Inizialmente un pò titubante, pensavo di rivolgermi ai classici produttori quali Crucial, Sabrent, Samsung ecc. ma, su consiglio di un amico, ho deciso di tentare con questo articolo, in quanto si sarebbe trattato di un disco secondario, quindi principalmente per installazione giochi e applicazioni.
Questo SSD, nonostante la marca possa non dire nulla alla maggior parte degli acquirenti, è performante e rispetta a pieno le specifiche dichiarate.
Veloce, affidabile, installazione semplice come qualsiasi SSD nvme.
Una volta installato, da Gestione Disco (tool integrato di Windows), andate a recuperarlo e formattatelo altrimenti non vi comparirà come spazio di archiviazione disponibile.
Basta anche una formattazione veloce per poter iniziare ad usarlo.
Detto questo, acquisto consigliato, trovato in sconto a 120€. A questo prezzo difficile trovare di meglio, e se la gioca perfettamente con marchi ben più conosciuti come Samsung con la sua linea 980/990 PRO.
Consigliato!
Very much impressed! Would recommend
