Use the tool as a buying filter. It does not replace the motherboard, console or manufacturer compatibility documentation, and it never assumes that a higher model number is automatically the better SSD.
FireCuda purchase checklist
Four checks before buying the SSD
Verify the family
Do not let FireCuda 530, 530R and X1070 collapse into one listing. The R suffix, X1070 name and exact SKU are part of the purchase identity.
Match capacity and cooling
A 1TB listing is not interchangeable with 2TB or 4TB, and factory-heatsink SKUs should be compared separately from bare M.2 versions.
Check the M.2 host
Confirm an M-key PCIe NVMe slot, intended PCIe generation and physical clearance. A compatible Gen3 slot can run a Gen4 SSD at the older link ceiling.
Protect warranty eligibility
Keep proof of purchase and verify seller, region and manufacturer terms. Warranty and Rescue services are not a substitute for backups.
