is it possible to have Paul also test these new chips with mitigation on how they affect PCIe SSD performance?

though I do like added power test during use not just idle, whats with the review tests seems all changed. we longer see seq read/write nor random read/write performance at QD1-4. further more with TLC especially more so on QLC, I want to see the speed while saturated by write to see the real...

2TB for $520? not bad at all for a TLC drive, especially one at this performance level considered to be better than the best in industry. nice review Chris! can't wait for a 4TB of this drive out for less than $800 though.

i mentioned usb because its got 5v and has a current limit of less than 1 Amps. but im not trying to run off USB voltage/current. optane isnt a 3.5" btw, trying to run it off laptop SATA power with a splitter cable.

as mentioned on title.. plan to fit a U.2 900p 280GB/480GB into a laptop (super thick laptop) but iirc laptop only got 5v rail sata power for those 2.5" SSDs/HDDs. i know 3.5" HDD can't run off usb 2/3 because not only its 5v but USB2 only provides up to 0.5A while USB3 is 0.9A. but can 3.5"...

thats high performance 4k right there

hey, in the picture of the disassembled cisco USB wifi module, which model is that?

performance is way too slow too, patriot released something much faster at same capacity or greater i believe. if it doesnt max at 400MB/s read and at least 200+ MB/s write no point getting it.

nice one paul, being waiting for this forever now. time to READ

"Enthusiasts should keep their fingers crossed for some type of Rapid Storage Technology driver with support for NVMe and Skylake in Windows 10." thats what i live for

chris your aritcle is so good. any chance for thermal test?

nice write up man, SSD still pretty competitive performance still keep climbing although really no where else to push for SATA format. when will we see a 4k read pass 100MB/s and write passes 250 1 drive

we need 3GB/s, two in raid 0 best.

some people would be ok with just a 2.5" sata SSD. for people that are getting this, considering you are on a sata III ssd and you are trying to explain its just much better to have it over a sata I but they just wont budge because they dont think the difference is worth the cost, and they do...

from HDD to SSD you see the huge latency drop by about 50x, where as fastest SSD compare to ram is maybe 30-50x dependent on ram/ssd. with NVMe can look forward to at least another 3x loss in latency. basically it'll be so much more snappier than your ssd for sure.
