Corsair's latest member of the MP600 series offers good all-round performance and the heatsink keeps the drive safe when under load, but it is in a highly competitive market segment with faster drives around the same price point so a little bit of adjustment with the price would help it.

The Corsair MP600 Elite is inexpensive and available with an optional heatsink for a small premium, but uneven throughput performance holds back this DRAM-less M.2 SSD from excellence.

The Corsair MP600 Elite ranks very high performance-wise among the host memory buffer (HMB) SSDs we’ve tested. It’s worthy of your NVMe 4.0 short list if you’re not continually writing very large files.

The MP600 Elite 2TB is our current recommendation for the overall best DRAMless SSD.
