The underlying drive is identical (to the copper version). It combines a Phison PS5016-E16 controller with 96-layer 3D TLC NAND flash memory over 8 channels, and a DDR4 DRAM cache (512 MB for the 500 GB variant, 1 GB for the 1 TB variant, and 2 GB for the 2 TB variant). All three variants offer sequential read speeds of up to 5000 MB/s. The 1 TB and 2 TB variants offer up to 4400 MB/s sequential writes, while the 500 GB variant offers up to 2500 MB/s. The 1 TB and 2 TB variants further offer the same 4K random-access performance numbers of 750k/700k IOPS (reads/writes), while the 500 GB variant offers up to 400k/550k IOPS. GIGABYTE is backing the drives with 5-year product warranties.

  Ooft, makes me feel bad for buying a 1TB A2000, although half the price I'd much rather this.Still haven't opened the kingston either.

  Isn't it better to get the silicon power 1TB NVME PCIe4? It is same price and available for delivery. It is SLC instead of TLC.

    Pretty sure that is also a TLC SSD. It has SLC caching, which isn't special, pretty much every TLC and QLC SSD has SLC caching.

  I have to ask, what are people using high performance PCIe 4 SSDs for, over a SATA or PCIe 3 SSD? Sure, if you're a data scientist or a pro video/3D editor, or if you have a lot of money and just like getting the best, but for most people I'm struggling to see the use. The upcoming consoles will have PCIe 4 SSDs, but it's almost certainly going to be at least a few years before you'll see significant improvements vs a PCIe 3 SSD, at which point the drives will be much cheaper.

  How is this different to the copper one? Heat sink?

  To be fair it was also this price yesterday. It's not a prime day deal, I have been watching this for weeks.
