Posted November 14, 2019 If you need a 2tb SSD, the 660p is the best value right now. It's a bit slower than some other TLC based NVME drives, but still good enough for daily usage.

Posted November 14, 2019 I'd say the 660p is ideal if you have 2 m.2 slots and this is your data/game drive. I have a TLC SSD for boot and the 660p for data and that seems to work splendidly.

Thats a pretty big increase in price. Im just a gamer, so the 660p should be good enough?
