Dah... sadly i'm 3 to 4 hours away. So not worth the drive for $20. lol Unless I have a good reason to be in KC

So tempting. I just forked out the money for a 960 SSD, but Samsung has become a really difficult company to support. I'm sure it's a great product, but their website and overall back and forth has been a serious nightmare. I just sent them a cancellation. If I hear back from them tomorrow then I'll definitely pick this up.

 

Thanks for posting.

Make sure you read AnandTech's review before you go buying this expecting super duper NVME speeds. It seems the controller in these SSD's is trash.

It's still faster than SATA drives, and is far cheaper than the faster NVMe drives. But yeah worth reminding yourself that it's not the uber high-end kind of SSD.
