Right. They clearly hit a wall here. Not much else to say but a minor update to the 850 EVO, which is nice. I will be getting the 2TB version of this or probably Crucial's offering for my main PC. Already have a 850 Pro in my PS4.
But yeah performance and stuff is pretty much all the same for the top brands.
So 850 EVO v3 with a new controller.

Considering how close in performance this is to the Crucial MX500 1tb and that the 960 Evo 1tb is 100€ more expensive i think ill be going for the former.

Not close at all. 900 series are NVMe. MX500 is a contender to 800 SATA series.

Great hard-disk replacement for smaller laptops which support single 2.5" drive (1 or 2TB version)
NVMe drives are nice and everything, but they are still very pricey for the size, and games are HUGE these days, meaning I'd have to use the 2nd drive in a laptop, which is usually a crappy HDD, killing all my loading times.
Glad to see 4TB is finally reaching mainstream, a bit expensive but eh, it will come down, slowly but surely.
