The PCIe Gen3x4 interface allows for read/write speeds of 1,800 MB/s and 850 MB/s, while 3D NAND flash technology means it can process quicker and more reliably than planar NAND drives Read More
I would like to add this to dispel the idea of 'gaming' NVMe SSD's
Almost any game WILL see a noticable reduction time betweeen a hard drive and a SATA ssd, however there is VIRTUALLY NO DIFFERENCE between game loading times on SATA and NVMe SSD's as the processor becomes the limiting factor at the SATA SSD point
I've been waiting for a good NVMe deal, but this just kinda hurts to look at. For 13% higher price, a 960 EVO 1TB gets you (according to spec):
78% higher read speeds
123% higher write speeds
175% higher IOPS
The only thing I would say is that perhaps this M.2 drive is much more stylish, if you're into that sort of thing.
Right. But I don't work with big files and many other buyers don't either. In terms of playing games there's not much impact between this and the Samsung. So the extra money to buy faster memory wont be very beneficial. $ to performance wise.
BoomtownYea but games wasn't the point I was making. To your point, this drive is fine for gaming and system boot since it won't make a noticeable difference. It's a good pick for this community to your point of "gamers." My point is there are much faster drives with nvme that will be a better pick for someone working in media and not just gaming. I have to imagine there are more people than just me working in media on this site. This drive is as fast as anything out there for gaming or just booting a PC. But for anything in media, samsung's nvme drives offer way faster data transfer which makes a huge difference in time it takes to export transfer or both. This drive, as you've pointed out, will be just as fast for booting your system or gaming. My point is that if your doing media, there is better in terms of data transfer out there.
