This review is from: SAMSUNG XP941 MZHPU128HCGM-00004(0) M.2 2280 128GB PCI-Express 2.0 x4 MLC Enterprise Solid State Drive
Pros:
- Insanely fast read times and good write
- PCIe 3.0 x4 speeds
Cons:
- Uses PCIe lanes
Overall Review:
Have Windows 8.1 installed and using as main PC boot drive. Asrock Extreme6 motherboard using the Ultra M.2 slot. Boot times are wicked fast at about 6 seconds from press of power button to desktop.
Only thing I listed as a con but is not really a con is the PCIe lanes that running at the PCIe 3.0 speed uses. For me this does drop my GTX 970 video card down from x16 to x8 but I don't even notice a difference. Now I will be eventually getting another 970 so am curious to see if this causes an issue with SLI since one of my cards will only be running at x4 instead of both running at x8. Will just have to wait and see but definitely am not going to take an egg off for that because its still a great SSD with very good read and wrtie times.
