This review is from: Intel 750 Series 2.5" 800GB PCI-Express 3.0 x4 MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) SSDPE2MW800G4X1
Pros:
Basically the same as the 400GB and 1.2TB, only it is 800GB.
Cons:
It did not cook my dinner.
Overall Review:
Used this on the Maximus VIII Impact, works like a champ and the board has U.2 native. Perfect combo, thanks asus. I have a Samsung 950 pro on another computer and it is faster on some synthetic benchmarks and slower at others. But the difference is not noticeable. The big advantage with the intel 750 is that it does not take up any room on such a small motherboard allowing Asus to put other addons on the board. The big negative of the U.2 port is that if Intel kinda cooked up the connector why did they make it need external power. The connector should be able to supply 40w or something like that. Needing external power from a SATA connector is messy. Only a minor grip as the node 304 case does not have a window and it looks just fine from the outside. Although having a heatsink and access to more power really makes this drive enthusiast and the Samsung 950 consumer.
