waiting for 4tb sata ssd to drop a little lower to replace my 2tb hdd.

[...] but Samsung's 980 Pro Gen 4 SSDs were among the best options for the PCIe 4.0 platform until just recently, when rivals began releasing their top-tier designs. [...]

I suggest you should at least take a note that Samsung's PRO series were not beat by any of the publishers in terms of durability and endurance, which makes them much more superior in my opinion (Because for a storage device that's meant to hold data this is one of the most important matters). Others might be a little faster by now, but Samsung can hold up to ten times the write cycles of what they guarantee, while all others manage to do at highest one and a half up to max two, maybe three times. Thus you get much more out of the budget for a Samsung PRO SSD.
