ADATA XPG Gammix S70 PCIe 4.0 2TB Review

Up Close

Silver text on a red background might not be the clearest thing to read, but the reality of modern shopping is that you’re not going to be picking the Gammix S70 off a shelf but getting it delivered to your door. Particularly in the current Covid times. We like the sheen on the box though. Very attractive.

  
  

Maybe we’re old fashioned but we’re a little bit wary of putting a sensitive device in plastic packaging. We know ADATA wouldn’t have done it unless it was fine, but we’ve spent too many years with anti-static straps on our wrists to want to be anywhere near combining plastic and memory in the same space.

  

Front on we think it’s quite attractive. The silver cover will blend in nicely to any design whilst also reflecting a bit of the RGB lighting with which we’ve all filled our cases.

  

The side view of the heatsink gives you a good idea of how deep it is. Certainly you need to pay close attention when installing this to make sure that you’ve enough clearance between your motherboards M.2 slots and any PCI cards you might have installed.
