Wonder why some results are so different from Anand's in respect to WD Black SSD / Sandisk Extreme Pro.

Just wondering about the launch dates on page 2, weren't the 970 EVO and PRO just released? The table says April 2017 though
And yep, still reading to see if Samsung gets even more of my money...

This worth it over the 960 pro m.2?

Or the difference that marginable that you wouldn’t notice the differences in a day to day world?

The 960 EVO 1TB can be had for €356 which comes out to €0,35/GB vs €0,43/GB(€429).

edit: The 960 EVO 500GB comes out €0,38/GB vs €0,44/GB for the 970 EVO 500GB.

But obviously the 970 EVO was just released so it commands a 14%(€27) price premium for the 500GB model and 20%(€73) for the 1TB one.

This worth it over the 960 pro m.2?

Or the difference that marginable that you wouldn’t notice the differences in a day to day world?

As I went from a 950 PRO 256GB to a 960 EVO 500GB recently, I'm inclined to say nill difference noticed in day to day usage.
