    Samsung has a good track record with their SSD's so I picked the PRO when it went on sale because it uses MLC NAND and has a 10 year warranty. Although the EVO using TLC NAND is cheaper, I'd rather have better performance over storage.

    We have used lots of these PRO SSD drives and they're great for anyone looking for lots of performance. The PRO drives also have lots of extras for those demanding users.

    Didn't see the benefit of going with the M.2 SSDs just released for the extra cost at this point. Maybe when SSD's are the bottleneck again but at this point not yet.
