Nvme m2 drives

Copy/paste from another thread:

I wouldn't bother with a PCIE 5.0 SSD currently (your system also needs to support PCIE 5.0)
These are far too expensive currently in comparison to a high-end PCIE 4.0 SSD and don't offer significant advantages unless your temp file writes are single large-files that are 10s of GB
For random small-file writes there isn't any significant difference

For high-end SSDs with a DRAM cache, the usual suspects are (in no particular order):
Samsung 990 pro
WD SN850X
Crucial T500
Seagate Firecuda 530
SK hynix Platinum P41 / Solidigm SSD P44 PRO
Kingston Fury Renegade
Adata XPG GAMMIX S70 BLADE

I would go with any on the list, whichever is cheapest on the day

Yes apparently my new nvme drive arrived at heathrow via i would assume a Chinese airline and has now cleared customs…

Now i must decide whether i wish to spend £49.99 on 3 x new bequiet 120mm argb fans
 
Which ones? They need to be silent like i cant hear a thing kinda silent
Thermalright TL-C12CW-S CPU Fan 120mm White ARGB Case Cooler Fan, 4pin PWM Silent Computer Fan With S-FDB Bearing Included, up to 1500RPM cooling fan(3 quantities)

Less than £11
 
yes they are a lot cheaper and funnily enough in another thread they came up as one of the options to replace my current DIY fans

3 for approx £33 - suppose this upgrade can probably wait but good news is today I received my new NVME drive from Shanghai :)
