Nope, it comes Wednesday afternoon.

Hehe I know, but I said please

Seems odd that Samsung would release something with a similar name in a similar area (ok, one is a graphics card, another a SSD, but still both in the PC Components area!)

Hey Gibbo,
Any idea when the 128gb or 256gb might come back in stock?
Cheers

Don't need, but so much want . Silly speeds on these drives now, I just wish they would start using different coloured PCB's, just bought a SM951 off you for a Z170 Mark 1 so it was nicely hidden behind the panel.

Noticed the ETA of 11/08 for the 128gb and pulled the trigger
However just noticed that you list the read speeds of the 128gb as 1400MB/s, but another website lists as 700MB/s.
Can you confirm which ones right?

Yeah be good to get confirmation.

I can't find anything official from Samsung, or full specs of the whole range from reviewers who've had the larger drives.

I suspect the 700 MB/s might be right though, since the 1400 MB/s is definitely for the 256GB drive, and the drives get faster as they get larger (since they have more physical memory packages to perform parallelism with).

 

[unp|dissy]

Just to clarify for other people wondering

It is 700MB/s write speed on the 128GB.

OC you need to correct your website.

Not sure whether to keep or return and wait for 256GB :S

 

[Locky]

This looks like a kick ass product.

 

[drakulton]

Does it come with a back-plate?

See my post on the previous page

The listed speeds are wrong for the 128gb drive.
