the 970 evo plus that I sadly don't have keeps ruling it seems crazy that absolutely nobody talks about it (I have a 970 pro 1Tb that said)

The endurance seems a bit inflated for TLC NAND, especially coupled with the 3 years warranty? 800TBW for the the 500GB model? The 970 Evo Plus only offers 300TBW, and the MLC 970 Pro just 600TBW, I have no idea where T-FORCE is coming with these figures from.
I have a 500MB one, if you're curious about something specific just ask. It's nothing exceptional, just another NVMe SSD.

"High-performance superconductivity – Thermally conductive adhesive offers average heat radiating, instantaneously thermal energy transfer and accelerates the radiating process."
That sure seems to be written by a marketeer. Mostly because it makes no sense. Average heat radiating is somehow "high-performance" ? All right then.
Apparently someone got superconductivity to work at room temperature (and higher) and then didn't tell anyone about it. That should be worth a Nobel Prize, at least.

Decent SSD.
But probably won't buy it... better stuff "just around the corner"

This is a Phison E12 drive judging by the version number of Firmware seen in one of the screenshots of a benchmark. So it looks like it's the same drive at the Corsair MP510 drive that guru3d reviewed here. Also same drive as Sabrent Rocket, and a few other names. I'm assuming the Phison E12 is paired with the same Toshiba NAND that all the other drives are. Nice to get a proper heatsink on it, so I wonder how it compares in price to the other Phison E12 drives (which should all be functionally the same as they seem to have the standard Phison firmware loaded).
