Nice SSD storage, 2500 MB/s, thats more than 5 times faster than typical SSDs.
ebay does not have 1Tb i am looking for my macbook pro
these won't work in macbooks anyway - mac uses a proprietary connector based on PCIe apparently
oops i thought they are same thanks mate for informing me before i spent money on them
no sweat, sucks apple did that otherwise I'd be jumping on one too!
Do these work on the old macs prior to 2012 retina display?
@nightelves:
No. I don't believe any Mac has ever had a standard M.2 connector.
If you mean the pre-Retina Mackbook Pro it should be just a standard 2.5 Sata SSD.
Well, what a shame, Apple always throws a trick at their products to make sure it's not compatible with competitors technologies so Apple fanboys fill their bank account on top of Wall Street companies.
Does this drive have true PCIE speeds?
Yeah, it's the NVMe 1.1 based model rather than the SATA based model
Awesome, now I just have to check to see if my laptop supports it.
Pretty sure this is the fastest consumer drive available
Good price and was trying very hard to find excuses to buy this but reviews implied minimal difference versus SATA SSD drives for 90 percent of real world use.
But those benchmark scores tho
People have benched them in raid0 stripe… :O
Very tempting to get one but I am not sure if this works for my Vaio Pro 13.
I know it uses a PCIe SSD but after I read against the above in regards to Mac I think I need to research further.
Note: This SSD requires a PCI Express Gen 3 interface [PCIe 3.0 x4 (up to 32 Gb/s) NVMe 1.1].
Nvme is just the non volatile memory version it should work in any m.2 pcie mobo
Unfortunately that's not quite the case with some of the older Z97 boards etc, though if the manufactures chose to they could update their BIOS to work
I'm running x99 luckily my pc is not even 6 months old and my msi mobo was built specially for one of these bad boys it even has usb 3.1 which I have no use for yet. I have wanted to buy one of these for a while the price is tempting but honestly I can't justify it right now I already have an ssd
Anyone know of a good SSD enclosure that would work with this? eg something like this: http://www.startech.com/au/HDD/Enclosures/m2-ssd-enclosure~S…
Edit: Ah maybe one of these: https://www.ramcity.com.au/buy/bplus-pcie-m.2-ssd-to-usb-3.0…
Is there even much point in getting an NVMe drive? Even SATA can get bottlenecked by USB3
All gone by the looks of it
Scrap that….they've gone and added 10 more to the listing
This is awesome, now I just need the pc/laptop to support it :)
I have this drive on my new Dell XPS 15, and it's lightning fast.
.
Thanks they were $524 when they went on sale a few months ago, building a new PC I could justify the 256 gb version for $300 wish these were that price then
today with "cvalentin20" at Futu I got the Samsung 256 portable SSD I thought it a really good enough price with the discount at $160 to buy
Thanks OP! I was just looking at this the night before you posted as I spec out a new PC!
Ordered!
However, PayPal suggests I paid the full price, $499 but the email from eBay says only $399. Does PayPal/eBay handle the coupon difference?
Check the Transaction details in your PayPal Account. It should show a breakdown of the payment.
You're right, thanks mate! Brain does not work as fast as this SSD does ;-)
anyone's marked as shipped yet? mine still hasn't.
Yeah, already received mine on Thursday last week (Melbourne metro area)
That's a nice price.
