Yep, that's why Samsung Gen 3 prices have fallen off a cliff

80'ish degrees under load with passive heatsink
Filesystem errors within 3 minutes with no heatsink
Thermalright should be releasing heatsinks with active fans soon
65°C Egg whites become a tender solid although ovomucin yolk cords will coagulate much higher. The yolk protein starts to thicken.
70°C Egg yolks set.
73°C Whole egg sets
Early gen, early adopter prices and specs. Not that much faster than gen 4 drives while running even hotter and being 3x as expensive, all while being useless for anything besides transferring large files continuously. Really feels like ssd tech hasn't meaningfully changed since the jump from sata to nvme other than price drops.
Ubiquitous question here: Does this work with PS5? XD
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say this'll be fast enough for the PS7
Actually with how ssd speeds are going. Very likely not lol.
Yes*, but you most certainly cannot put the ssd cover plate back on with that heatsink. Let's hope you can at least still put the PS5 plastic plate cover back in.
Soon enough 16gb of ram will become a bottleneck on PCs, bare minimum on GPU’s and (possibly) recommended on high end SSDs
It does "feel" like RAM and bulk storage are on a merging trajectory. I haven't looked into the thruput of DDR5, and ignoring the wear on SSDs, but it seems to me that with some mods to OS memory management, SSDs could have the purpose of bulk storage and most RAM functionality. SDRAM could be down-sized and having the purpose of buffer/cache and working memory only.
I'd go $300 for this. I may be waiting a while.
No PCIe gen 5 x4 SSD for you, come back 1 year.
hold out for Gen6
Yet another PCIe 5.0 SSD with Phison E26 controller and Micron 232L TLC NANDs
Corsair MP700 PCIe Gen5 M.2 NVME SSD 1TB $299

This thing must get hot! Could probably cook an egg on it.
