This is a look at the drive temperatures throughout all of the disk tests carried out on Linux. The Sabrent Rocket 4.0 1TB did operate warmer than the other solid-state drives tested and peaked at 82 degrees, so an external heatsink may be desired.

On a performance-per-dollar basis, the Sabrent Rocket 4.0 1TB was delivering better value than the Corsair Force MP600 1TB at around $239 USD though in the days since carrying out these benchmarks at some retailers the Corsair drive has now dipped below the $190~200 price point.

If taking the geometric mean of all the tests successfully run on all of the drives, the Sabrent Rocket 4.0 is just a short distance behind the Corsair Force MP600.
