mp600's are nice, we use them on our 3xxx series Ryzens (sometimes striped for even more speed).

I did a bit of research and they seem to be the king for PCI-E 4 drives. I’ve always been a Samsung fan for SSD/NVME.

I hear a lot of the PCI-E 4 drives have some issues but the MP600 are great.

I really hate waiting for disk IO so I always keep my drives top of the line.

I've also bought the Sabrent gen4 drives, they're also good, but at the moment the mp600s are offered at a much better price, especially with current discounts.

Looks like the Samsung 980 Pro is launched and blows away the MP600.

MP600 does 4950 MB/s and the Samsung 980 Pro is at 7,000.
IOPS on the MP600 cap at around 680K where the Samsung is 1M.

The Samsung only comes in 1TB though and is a bit more at $230/1TB compared to $175/1TB with the MP600.
