There really isn't any such thing as a "slow" NVMe drive. That, however is one of the faster ones.

Ah okay thanks

It's not the fastest, but not on the slow end (for NVMe drives) by any means. It above average in terms of speed I believe. 

 

The EVO series are one of the best in terms of quality for the price.

Yes, this is one of the top consumer nvme drives

It's really fast, especially if you have 13GB+ of free space.

*the 660p with less than 10-20% of it's space available would like to disagree*

Fair enough. I am still running a 950 pro 256 that cost WAY too much in Feb of 2016. It is only about halfway full because I have enough other drives to keep most of stuff on. I honestly can't justify buying a new one for ~ 1000MB/sec faster reads.

Not really 660p specific, most SSDs including TLC NVMe's slow down heavily around that filled up capacity.

Ever heard of Phison E12?

The top consumer NVMe drive is the Intel Optane 900P. If you're going for "one of the top", that's incredibly subjective. But that will not include the EVO, even Phison E12 drives like Sabrent Rocket will outclass the evo on tasks such as content creation.
