Kingston M.2 Speed Test. Raspberry Pi 4.

Raspberry Pi 4 8GB
Running 64bit Raspberry Pi OS

As mentioned in the video the M.2 drive with USB adapter didn’t boot Raspberry Pi OS unless it was cloned from an already fully booted sd card.

Price vs Performance is very good with this M.2 drive.

I will put Ubuntu on it and see how it runs.
