Pretty cheap deal, nearest price I could find was £89.99 on amazon. Novatech are reliable for anyone with doubts.
SSD has read speed : 2800MB/s

Do I need it. No.
Do I want it. Yes.
Must try and hold off until Black Friday.

I bought an nvme drive, waste of money to me (spent a long time debating, but wanted to know first hand it was!), no faster than a fast ssd in real world usage, although benchmarks are nice!
suppose if I run a ton of sql vm's it would help...
I won't lie, I was excited when I popped it in mind!
saying that, its a good price :smiley:

The pm has much lower performance than the Sm
Also since it's an oem sku there's no warranty
Save your money, go for the 950 pro or upcoming 960 pro

Good deal , these are nice I have the Samsung 950 pro and you get some nice performance out of them. OS load quite fast but be warned not all motherboards support OS boot from them, only the newer boards x99 and z170 seem to allow it.

It's still a PCIe NVMe SSD. It'll spank any SATA based SSD out there and it's cheap! I think I paid around this amount for my 256 GB SATA SSD probably a year ago, it's great how fast things are moving forward on the SSD front.
Oops just realised it's a wccftech link, shame on me :disappointed:

Dual 32 core AMD mobo, 64 cores, 128 threads. AMD Naples. Better specs than anything Intel has but quad channel memory bandwidth instead of six channel. If the IPC is close to Intel then it's a major coup for AMD in the server market and high end professional market.

Would any of you kind souls know if this would fit in a Lenovo X1 Carbon 2nd Gen (2014)? I have one with no HDD and I really want to get it up and running....
Should fit, will it work? Well without doing research I imagine your Lenovo carbon is using AHCI as the controller interface and not NVMe and the socket generation is older so won't be able to maximise the performance if it did work. I'd hazard a guess and say it's not compatible.

i think/hope you can boot off these on a z97 mobo too, Dunno if 960 evo will be cheaper.
Might go for M.2 when it gets a bit lower in price, MeinKraft needs it.
