Not too long ago, Samsung used to be the clear leader in SSD performance. But the 980 Pro was released too late, and it doesn't compare as well in specs as these newer controllers from Phison et al. I'm interested in seeing the results from the next large comparison of drives with all of these newly released controllers. Hopefully there will be some "real-world" benchmarks, like tests at QD1 or 2, to show which really will be the best for the consumer/prosumer.
