Problem in many cases is availability. i do agree that its completly wrong what they do, but we need to understand that these manufacturers they just buy these ICs for their SSDs when they manufacturer themselves, not considering "white labeling".
The problem is that they can't get an infinite number of batches for a single product, in my opinion, they should be transparent about it, saying that it could change and list in details all the different variants

They get away with it, to some extent, by listing the official specs very conservatively and omitting some specs altogether.
When they need to switch to inferior NAND or controller, they baked enough wiggle-room into the original spec to still meet them all.

Sadly, real-world performance doesn't care about a select few specs on a marketing spec-sheet, which is why the bait-and-switch re-reviewed products always look bad.

Sounds like exactly what Corsair does with their RAM.

Strange things are happening to my 2TB NV2, approx. 10 months after the purchase, so I have decided to share the information. Another person is having exactly the same issues with his 2TB NV2, so I guess it won't be an isolated case.

Just to clarify before everything else - my NV2 has perfect SMART, just 2,3TB of writes and under 500 power-on hours for these 10 months since its purchase. I have used it just for file storage (family photos and videos), as a second drive installed on the motherboard's second (Gen.3 x4 M.2 slot).
With this type of usage (occasional incremental writes), I am not sure since when I have the problem. It could have been there right from the beginning...

Now the problem - accessing the information already stored on this SSD takes ages! Anything from just clicking on folder properties, photos / videos thumbnails visualization, to opening and copying files is happening waay too slow. Is is OK, sometimes, and not OK most of the time.
The copy process starts, usually fast, then goes to 0MB/s, stays there for 5-10-15 seconds, 2-3-5 minutes, then goes up again and so on. The SSD's access time is seconds, sometimes tens of seconds. The "Disk active time" in Task Manager shows 100% almost all the time.
This happens no matter whether I try to copy files from the NV2 to an external USB drive or to the other SSD in the system.

I have noticed the problem yesterday. My system has been through a lot of software changes, driver removals / updates etc. for the last 12 months since Win10 was installed, so I have decided to do a clean OS install last night, but unfortunately this did change anything.

The system's specs are:
Win10 22H2, all current updates installed
AMD chipset drivers from MSI's web site
Kingston SSD manager, latest drive firmware installed
MSI B550A-Pro MoBo
Kingston NV2 in the MoBo's second (chipset) M.2 slot
Seagate FireCuda 530 in the MoBo's first (CPU) M.2 slot

In the System Event Viewer I have lots of warnings "Reset to device, \Device\RaidPort2, was issued" which correspond to the "pauses" in my file copy attempts.

The SMART status of the NV2 appears to be OK too:

Would you suggest any further steps, which will ensure that the SSD is the culprit (before attempting a RMA)?

PS. The other guy, who is having the same issues with his NV2, has already tried switching the NV2 with his main SSD (switching both M.2 slots on his motherboard) and a different motherboard, but the problem still exists.

Hi, I've been having similar issues with my Kingston NV2 recently and hundreds of Event 129 - I am using it as my main OS drive and quite often it throttles down to unbearably low speeds and the system hangs. It's very frustrating. Initially I was thinking that it is overheating but the temps on my side are not that high. Highest I've seen was like 42C which should not be a problem. I am considering formatting it and not using it as a OS drive ever again. Turned out to be such a shitty SSD

is tlc or qlc?

@djsolidsnake86 - it is a TLC one. Confirmed earlier in this thread.

As an update to my post above, I can write that after a quick format, my 2TB NV2 is working, as there have never been any problems with it. Writing / reading - everything works as it should.
I have given it to my father and he is using it as a system drive now with no issues.

problem can happen again

uBaH · Dec 29, 2023

For sure it can

I have advised my father to keep a copy of his files on his mechanical drive (which is still in the system). In addition to that, I have kept his original 128GB system SATA drive, with the OS, settings and all his data.
In case the NV2 fails again, I should be able to have his system up and running in almost no time.

PS. Using this NV2 as an everyday, system drive should highlight its problems much faster than my type of use (data backup drive, accessed from time to time).

Recently purchased the NV2 1TB from amazon for $30. Guess it was on clearance and the price seemed good with the rebounding ssd prices. Wanted to share my findings that appear unique. Was hoping for the Phison + TLC combo. Phison flash id didn't work. Thought I ended up with SMI 2267 + TLC combo instead. But for some reason the SMI flash id kept getting stuck after reading LBA and it would lock up the whole system. Tried different systems, SM flash ids. Same thing. Finally peeled off the sticker and was surprised to see some brand I never heard of, TENAFE TC2200. Huh?! Luckily there is a flash id for that too. I got unlucky and got intel QLC. Overall, the crystaldiskmark results dont look bad. I thought from these results I had TLC. Also these results were limited to pcie 3.0. DIdn't have a 4.0 slot available.

Oh well, a bit disappointed in kingstons stupid mystery bag tricks, but this is cheap and only being used in my laptop for game storage. Wish I picked up that crucial p5 1TB for $30 about half a year ago when ssd prices bottomed out... Also, my version was 005.A00G Taiwan, which by some posts a few pages ago indicate those were TLC. Also this review has the same version and he got SMI 2267+TLC. So I think these versions definitely don't indicate anything concrete. I think its faster than my ancient samsung pm961 1TB with dram. Tossed that into my unraid server for much needed cache.

Recently purchased the NV2 1TB from amazon for $30. Guess it was on clearance and the price seemed good with the rebounding ssd prices. Wanted to share my findings that appear unique. Was hoping for the Phison + TLC combo. Phison flash id didn't work. Thought I ended up with SMI 2267 + TLC combo instead. But for some reason the SMI flash id kept getting stuck after reading LBA and it would lock up the whole system. Tried different systems, SM flash ids. Same thing. Finally peeled off the sticker and was surprised to see some brand I never heard of, TENAFE TC2200. Huh?! Luckily there is a flash id for that too. I got unlucky and got intel QLC. Overall, the crystaldiskmark results dont look bad. I thought from these results I had TLC. Also these results were limited to pcie 3.0. DIdn't have a 4.0 slot available.

Oh well, a bit disappointed in kingstons stupid mystery bag tricks, but this is cheap and only being used in my laptop for game storage. Wish I picked up that crucial p5 1TB for $30 about half a year ago when ssd prices bottomed out... Also, my version was 005.A00G Taiwan, which by some posts a few pages ago indicate those were TLC. Also this review has the same version and he got SMI 2267+TLC. So I think these versions definitely don't indicate anything concrete. I think its faster than my ancient samsung pm961 1TB with dram. Tossed that into my unraid server for much needed cache.

I also bought a 1TB Kingston NV2 from the recent Amazon deal, and got a 144L QLC + Tenafe controller.
Firmware CBG04418
I ran these tests on a fresh install of Windows.

Sequential performance seems fine, but the random write performance is abysmal. The best result I got was ~500 MB/s.
Maybe because I tested this just after a Windows install and updates? I'm not sure.

Is it possible to request a compensation or replacement from Kingston? I bought 2 of these SSDs last year because the reviews I read about it were excellent (https://www.techpowerup.com/review/kingston-nv2-1-tb-m-2-nvme-ssd/), turns out this review is the old one and I got the worse QLC variant. My PC gets stuck (100% utilisation) when doing sustained write.

vinhtq115 · Aug 29, 2024

I use my NV2S 500GB for dual booting. Seems like it runs fine with Ubuntu. On Windows, 1-2 months ago, it started showing 100% activity usage on boot and slowed everything down. Somehow, running TRIM command on Linux and defragmentation on Windows and then rebooting temporary mitigated the issue but after a few restart into Windows, it showed up again.

Holy moly, I knew Kingston were one of the worse brands for bait-and-switch but this is so bad I'm lost for words.

Controller: totally random
NAND: totally random
Endurance: totally random
Performance: totally random

The only guarantees you have is that it'll be DRAMless, it'll be nothing like as fast as the launch-day review samples, and performance will be garbage-tier, possibly even so bad it's problematic

What controllers/flash to avoid in nv2 series?

I got this:
CRTP2324: TenaFe TC2200 + YMTC X2-9060 128L 512Gb TLC (250GB/500GB) version.

Temperature and reliability are important to me, not speed/performance.

@Chrispy_

That is like looking at the Solar system and conclude its all not worth it, cause the Sun will someday be the end of it all.
In just as little time as 5 billion years that is.

Looking at the positive sides of this SSD.

It will last longer then you live.
It will be about 25 times faster then a Hard disk.
It can be bought for as low as 30 dollar per 1TB.
It will not get hot and does not need a heatshield.

@masterdeejay
These do not get hot, do not need a heatshield and will be reliable enough for consumers.
But always, with any brand of hardware, make at least 1 back up, pref. 2 (co-location).

Kapone33 · Oct 22, 2024

NV2 drives are best used as Game drives. If you are into NVME there are faster drives to use for boot. Being the OS drive is one of the hardest things you can do to an NVME drive. Just look at Disk usage in HWinfo and you will see that the OS drive is always in use. The issue is that there are cheaper drives that are faster right now as the NV2 is more expensive than when it launched.

The first two points have been proven wrong on multiple occasions and reported on dozens of sites/forums around the web.
$30/TB is regional - if you see it as the cheapest drive on sale, then great - you get what you pay for.

The thermals depend on the controller. NV2 is literally a "random crapshoot" of controller and NAND that means nothing. It could be anything, so long as it's dirt cheap. Here's a list of all the known variants, and it's not even a complete list. Some of these controllers run hot, some of them run cold, some of them are fast enough, some of them are dog slow. Trying to generalise with the NV2 is actually impossible because it's not a single drive model, it's an umbrella term of a name that describes the collection of bottom-of-the-barrel, cheapest available parts that Kingston can cobble together to make a functional SSD.

All I see is a complaining opinion, but no links to prove batch wide high temps or high failrates with the NV2.
I actually have several NV2's in use and none of them disappoint. They are fast and run cool without any problems.
These are sold in batches by the millions. So Kingston cannot rely on one supplier. They even have several production lines in different countries.

As a result they come under many specs with this NV2 type. So what? They all run fine and none of these have a high fail rate or need cooling extra's.
Almost all of them will outlast your lifetime. So for these prices there is not much to complain about.

If you want to prove your point then please show me links of this NV2 where they fail by the masses, run hot or show consistent low speeds.

Until then this is a cheap but fast, running cool good NVMe SSD.

Is there any NVME that has high failure rates? I do have a NV2 that is essentially dead. Having said that I have built 3 PCS using NV2 as all storage. Those were the first batch that were all TLC but I also have a 4TB in my main system. This is not the days of OCZ SSds or Kingston USB drives. When the NV2 first launched they were inexpensive and competed with offerings from Team and Adata on the low end. Today they are similar in price to WD drives now.

Never used a Kingston NVME, but almost all my failed SSDs are Kingston.

Owned the following including both SATA and NVME.

2x Samsung 830, 4x Samsung 860, 1x Samsung 850 pro, 1x Samsung 970 evo, 1x Samsung 980 pro. - 0 out of 9 failed.
1x WD SN850X, 1x WD SN570 - 0 out of 2 failed
2x Crucial MX500 - 1 out of 2 failed.
4x Kingston varying models. - 3 out of 4 failed.

The kingston record isnt great, even more so as most of them havent been used much.
