Thanks for the review,it is amazing how many test can be done on Harddrives/ssd/Nvme.
I agree in the conclusion

Do we really need 7000MB/sec storage units.
Um no? This is a premium performance product, often synthetically measured, and you'd need serious workloads to get the best out of it. Your PC isn't going to boot faster as your OS is the bottleneck, your PC games might load a fraction of a second faster, your application load up just as quickly as an NVMe SSD with reads/writes in the 2 GB/sec marker. Guys, this is the honest truth.

One thing I can say about these fast drives,they are excellent for copying large files(for me PC Games) from one drive to another. Transferring a couple hundreds GB's of game files in a matter of a less than a minute compared to hours is just an awesome time saver.

4KQ1T1 in the 90s is starting to become a more common thing. This is good to see because you will actually feel this in day to day use.
