The Sabrent Rocket 4 PCIe Gen 4 SSD with a 2 TB capacity is now on sale for only US$119.99 instead of the US$179.99 list price. Aside from boasting 5,000 MB/s sequential read and 4,400 MB/s write speeds, the drive comes with features like Advanced Wear leveling to ensure an extended lifespan and Bad Block Management to enhance drive reliability.

2023 is proving to be a good year for PC gamers who are on a budget. In addition to falling GPU prices, Solid State Drives (SSDs) have also seen deep discounts. Tom’s Hardware reported back in March that prices of SSDs had fallen anywhere from 15 to 30% since January. Thanks to these cuts, you can now get the speedy Sabrent Rocket Gen 4 PCIe NVMe SSD for US$119.99 on Newegg (via slickdeals). The discounted rate represents the lowest price the drive has seen in the last 30 days.

Because it is a PCIe 4.0 drive, the Sabrent Rocket Gen 4 has advertised sequential read and write speeds of 5,000 MB/s and 4,400 MB/s respectively. The random read and write speeds land at 750,000 IOPS. The Sabrent Rocket Gen 4 also has an endurance rating of 3,600 TBW. This is backed up by five years of extended warranty if you register the drive within three months of purchase.

So, how does the Sabrent Rocket 4 perform? According to PCWorld’s review of the Sabrent Rocket 4, although the drive failed to put up an impressive showing in synthetic benchmarks, the real-world performance proved to be very good.

In short, if you are looking for a spacious PCIe Gen 4 SSD on a budget, the 2 TB Sabrent Rocket 4 appears to be a very good option thanks to its speedy real-world performance and low price.
