Remember these are not just incredible prices, but these are the new ultra-fast models, so get your orders in fast. :D
 
Why is it that the vertex have consistent write speeds over the range and all of the other ssd's you seem to see only have decent write speed at high capacities?
 
Normally the smaller drives are slower due to The fact that they take the standard drives and make them smaller simply by reducing the number of chips below the max that can be accessed simultaneously. I guess the vertex use of compression masks this.
 
Was thinking the same thing myself. Why would people choose slower?

I'm looking at getting a drive around 256GB - the M4 is nearly £100 cheaper. To me read speeds are important not write, I use a lot of VM's so I'd like them to be all on one fast drive. The M4 offers excellent good read speeds and remember its Max read speeds you are comparing. In real world usage you are not going to see a huge difference between the drives so for me getting the cheaper of the two is a no brainer.
 
I make it 137 years, I rarely use a drive for more than 3/4 years before I need more storage. With SSD's being so small I'm upgrading every ~18 months to increase storage.
