Question NVMe Storage

[Yankee_LT]

Okay, so I have two choices here that I would like to ask you all about. My current PC configuration has a 1TB Operating system drive, the Corsair MP600 Core XT, and a 2TB storage drive of the same. I want to change this to either the MP700 variant (for both drives) or the Samsung 990 Pro. There is the MP700 Pro variant, which is a bit steeper in price. Yes, I understand that there are probably better brands out there, but these are my choices.

Thank you.

1. Why change?

2. What motherboard do you have?

 

[Yankee_LT]

The motherboard is the MSI X670E. I'm thinking about changing it because of the read/write speed.

Your motherboared M.2 port is PCIe 5.0 x4.

Your drives are PCIe 4.0 x4.

You will not see any visible performance increase, no matter which one, or both of those, that you change.
