What is the booting time for different SSD from pressing power button to showing desktop, including Intel Optane and Samsung 960 Pro?

Awesome review, but what is the booting time from pressing power button to showing desktop for different SSD including Optane and Samsung 960 Pro?

This is already obsolete technology. Super-prone to catastrophic failure and super-slow compared to modern drives. Check out Samsung 960 PRO SSD 2TB: Sequential Read 3,500 MB/sec Sequential Write 2,100 MB/sec RANDOM READ (4KB, QD32) 440,000 IOPS (Thread 4) RANDOM WRITE (4KB, QD32) 360,000...

Fast? Intel claims the new Optane SSD 800P series is capable of up to 1,450/640 MB/s of sequential read/write throughput. Random performance reaches up to 250,000 read and 140,000 write IOPS. That is SLOW. Compare to gold standard: Samsung 960 Pro 2TB: Sequential Read Speed: 3,500 MB/sec...

What about full benchmarks with sequential read/write and random rad/write (IOPS)?

Do not repeat the same over different contiguous table cells!

Is it possible to use Samsung Portable SSD T5 to boot Mac and work from it all-day-long?

Do not compare apples and oranges. Either all single or all RAID. Otherwise it is misleading. Stop FUD. Get the facts: Intel crosses an unacceptable ethical line http://semiaccurate.com/2017/03/27/intel-crosses-unacceptable-ethical-line

Samsung V-NAND (3D NAND) is the gold standard and much better than SLC/TLC/MLC-NAND.

How does it compare to the gold standard now: Samsung 960 PRO 2TB with sequential read/write speeds of 3,500/2,100 MB/sec, random read/write speeds of 440,000/50,000 IOPS and 5 years warranty (or 1,200 TBW, whatever comes first). Check out: Intel crosses an unacceptable ethical line...

Thanks, but I meant where to buy it now, not in August. Thanks.

Where to buy the Samsung SM961?
