Do you suspect that the nx500 is a victim of the NAND shortage, or is it's problem a bunch of dumb marketing and engineering decisions?

Performance wise, it wasn't AWFUL. It definitely has a pricing problem though.

Good review.

It's reassuring that you guys didn't give the conclusion "This is really good!" when it clearly isn't. Honest reporting.

Chris, I also appreciate the honest conclusion. This drive is at least better than the Intel 600p; however, the pricing really makes it lose any appeal for me. I would definitely go with Samsung for the performance.

I wonder why they just didn't go with an m.2 option and then have an pci adapter. I'd almost expect most people wanting to buy this will have a board that will have at least one m.2 slot. I'm just not into using my express slots unless it need to be used.

If you can't beat Samsung's performance and you're unwilling to beat their prices, why even bother?
