My 256GB 950 PRO is killing it!! Love it! :thumbup:

Thank you for the review Hilbert! Looks like the Samsung 950 Pro M.2/MVME is missing from the Sisoft Sandra Drive Index Write MB/s table.

Excellent review Hilbert as always it was a great read. As a true Storage speed enthusiast myself i still drooling over this nVME SSD performance.

Nice review and a great product but i'm worried about storage sizes of modern SSD's. I was looking at my steam account and some other games that are over 50gigs in size now. A drive of only 480gigs will only hold a few games these days and you will probably start running into problems and more errors once this drive is more than 75% filled. Once these PCIe drives start hitting 8Tbs then hopefully games will still be 20-50gigs. Since games seem to be growing in size still at a rather incredibly fast rate then SSD's need to catch up on size and stop trying to break speed records and increase density/size. It won't be long at this rate before some modern DX12 games may reach the 100gigs mark 🙁 GTA V for example is already 64.4 GB on my system and that's with 0 expansions so far. If it does get some then it may be the first game for me to reach that 100gigs.

I had a 372GB PCI-e SSD, but had to remove it when I went from a r9 295x2 to my 980ti sli setup. It was a real shame. Load times were basically non-existent.

This should have been tested against the 512GB 950 Pro, not the 256GB. The 512GB 950 Pro is also cheaper, about $330.00 USD.
