    I have an X570 MB and wanted to upgrade to an PCIE4 SSD. I expected faster boot times with the 980 Pro but I didn't see much difference from my original 970 EVO Plus. Using Samsung Magician bench marks, the 980 Pro did 7100 MB/s in sequential reads, twice as fast as the 970. In random reads got only 3500 MB/s, about the same as the 970. I guess that is why the boot times were about the same since booting Windows 10 is mostly random reads.

    Note this product is only supported at this time by the really new high end AMD, and not by Intel chipsets yet. Perhaps 11th gen Intel. Don't buy unless that is your target, else you are paying 2x for something you will not need.

    Good SSD and hit advertised speeds, but sustained writes over 150gb did slow down considerably which shouldn't happen. I reformatted my OS and tried it again and the same issue happened again. I then put them in another one of my machines as just a secondary drive and it did the same thing again. I don't really hit the 150gb+ write level often but when I do, it's kind of frustrating that this shouldn't happen. I knocked off a star cause reading the forums, it should be fixed in a future firmware hopefully.
