Making a new build, need to decide between the 2 960 series from Samsung.
The budget is less than $450 for the SSD, so it rules me out of the 960 Pro 1TB. Based on the published specs from Samsung, it looks like the 1TB 960 Evo is actually faster than the 512GB 960 Pro in terms of 4KB random read/write. But sequential read/write speeds seems to be slightly slower.
All the pre-production reviews I can find are on the larger 1TB 960 Pro, which makes sense, as Samsung wants to send out their fastest variant for reviews.
Perhaps somebody have some data for the already released OEM versions between SM961 (Pro 960 equivalent) and PM961 (EVO 960 equivalent)?
