HI,
For mobile devices my choice for NVMe SSD is Kingston A2000, about 2GB/s R/W, up to 1TB size available. Decent speed, no flaws and slow downs of cheaper drives, 5Y warranty.
For more space or if I needed top performance I'd look for Samsung 970 EVO Plus or something like that.

Hi @stud.muffler, the highest capacity we have tested for type NVME is until 512GB, and the brand we tested that works well is the one you're currently using SAMSUNG/MZVPV512HDGL. We are not able to guarantee the compatibility of larger capacity. Thanks!
