Sabrent recently released the Rocket 4 PLUS M.2 NVMe SSD series. Powered by a mightily fast PS5018-E18 controller this Sabrent offer might become one of the most compelling SSDs we've tested in a while. If you like endurance and PCIe 4.0 performance levels breaching 7 GB/sec, of course.

Really an ultimate SSD . Sadly most of the performance goes to waste . Maybe in the future devs will find use for them.

I do hope prices drop down considerable in coming years, these NVMe really are not for normal use as Hilbert says. I look foward to the day that prices on these things becoming affoardable, for most people norma Sata SSD are still not Affordable, certian better then when I payed that 180$ for 128gb and. but 100 for 1TB for even Sata SSD is asking alot imo
