Covered with a 3-year limited warranty and featuring a 336 TBW endurance value, the 960 GB Lexar NQ100 SATA III SSD has a sequential read speed of up to 550 MB/s. With a list price of US$74.99, this affordable storage upgrade solution is now down by 40% on Amazon, so it can be acquired for just US$44.99, which is its lowest price in 30 days.
Introduced in early 2021, the Lexar NQ100 lineup of SSDs is available only in three sizes, all of them below the 1 TB value: 240 GB, 480 GB, and 960 GB. Although there is nothing impressive in these drives for those looking to get the fastest storage solutions for their new computers in 2023, the Lexar NQ100 is a good upgrade solution for old hardware that is still stuck with the SATA III interface. Now, the 960 GB model, labeled LNQ100X960G-RNNNU, is down from US$74.99 to US$44.99. The 40% discount pushes this product to the lowest price it had on Amazon in the last 30 days.
According to the official product page, the Lexar NQ100 can operate between 0°C and 70°C (32°F and 158°F) and can handle 1500 G half sine wave 0.5 ms shocks, as well as 7~800Hz, 3.08Grm, 20G, 1 Oct/min, 30min/axis(X,Y,Z) vibrations. The sequential read speed goes up to 550 MB/s. This SATA III SSD drive is covered by a 3-year limited warranty and has an endurance rating of 336 TB.
The Lexar NQ100 shares 6,374 user reviews on Amazon with other lineups, such as the SL200 portable SSD or the NS100 SATA III SSD. The resulting global rating is an excellent 4.7/5, with 84% perfect scores and 11% 4/5 reviews. Another excellent deal available at this time is the 60% discount that applies to the 512 GB LNS100-512RBNA, which can be acquired for a mere US$24.49.

In my early school days, I hated writing and having to make up stories. A decade later, I started to enjoy it. Since then, I published a few offline articles and then I moved to the online space, where I contributed to major websites that are still present online as of 2021 such as Softpedia, Brothersoft, Download3000, but I also wrote for multiple blogs that have disappeared over the years. I’ve been riding with the Notebookcheck crew since 2013 and I am not planning to leave it anytime soon. In love with good mechanical keyboards, vinyl and tape sound, but also smartphones, streaming services, and digital art.
