Performed up to specifications, Single-sided, Does not thermal throttle
No DRAM cache, Priced as much as a Gen4 drive, Random performance drops in certain tests
Lexar has teamed up Silicon Motion's SM2263XT controller with 64-layer 3D TLC NAND from Intel on the NM610. One thing that this drive is missing is a DRAM cache chip. This is because the drive makes use of Host Memory Buffer (HMB). With this configuration...

After using and testing the Lexar NM610 drive for an extended period of time, we can say with certainty that it is without a doubt an entry-level NVMe drive. We came close to meeting the NM610 1TB drives rated sequential speeds of 2,100 MB/s read and 1,60...
Great Performance, Small Form Factor, Super Fast NVMe, Available in Sizes up to 1TB, More Storage Less Cost
Sample drive offered inconsistent performance with varying filesizes

Consistent performance, Better than SATA performance all around, Great for Office and Surf PCs, 3-year Warranty

Slow direct to TLC write speed, Ugly sticker, 3-year warranty, No software package
Lexar's NM610 is a worthy choice depending on the price you catch it at. It doesn't offer the best performance but is good enough for most tasks, especially gaming...

Pros, Strong 4K read and write results in Crystal DiskMark tests
Cons, Mixed performance, High cost per gig for feature set, Warranty just three years, Low durability rating, No software options
Bottom LineWhile Lexar's NM610 PCI Express M.2 SSD posts strong benchmark results in some scenarios, its high cost per gigabyte and lower-end durability specs undermine its value proposition...
