Literally the only difference is form factor... and all the extra money you'll pay for a motherboard with an mSATA slot (assuming you aren't using it in a laptop.)
I'm still waiting for cheap ass 1TB 2.5" drives. My laptop drive is getting kinda derpy.

That still relies on ahci you fucking retard.
You should've got a nvme ssd.
o i am laffin
>>51735099
mSATA is just SATA III over a different interface, OP is talking about M.2 which is 10Gb/s compared to 6Gb/s.
>>51735154
>10Gb/s
You mean 32Gb/s if you're doing it right and running it over PCI-E 3.0 4x.
>>51735115
I wouldn't buy a sandisk ssd, go for samsung evo 850 best ssds atm
>>51735216
Why though?
It was the 960GB Ultra II. I read plenty of reviews and everything seemed perfectly fine. Obviously it's not supposed to be the performance king but any SSD (assuming it's reliable I'M FUCKING LOOKING AT YOU OCZ) is going to shit all over a conventional drive.
Do you have a specific issue to present?
>>51735099
that is just a pic from google
I got:
Samsung SM951 MZVPV512HDGL Solid-State-Disk 512GB MZVPV512HDGL-00000

first I'm not a poor fag broke nigga like you, second I do need this speed I work with raw hd video.
>>51735021
Motherboard manufacturers dont have a common throughput for the slots(some are just sata and others are varying pcie speeds) and there are very few pcie m.2 ssds. Also so few people have a use for more than one ssd, anything faster than sata 3, and its a lot simpler for the tech illiterate to just use a 2.5" drive kept away from all the heat of a cpu and gpu
>not pcie
goml fags
>>51735154
M.2 is a form factor, not a connector.
It's either SATA or PCI-E.
>>51735216
>>51735255
There's literally nothing wrong with Sandisk.
>>51735264
Why though? The 500gb 850 m.2 costs ~€200.
>>51736922
That's SATA III, as fast as a standard one. PCI-E is a LOT faster.
>>51735255
It's about 840 Evo tier. Can't beat it for $150-175 tho.

So, why aren't you posting your benchmarks bruh?
Let us see your wonderful m2 drive at work
>>51737283

>>51737296
That's not "YOUR" drive, that's a "lel muh syntetic benchmarks" image you found on a tech site.
Only if you, like, wanted to sell me something.
>>51737317
Real world benchmarks m8
I am planning on buying a m.2 ssd, but it seems like ther are a couple different types of ports for them.
For instance Samsung 950 PRO 256 GB Internal SSD - M.2 - MZ-V5P256BW - PCI Express 3.0 x4 (NVMe)
It seems like the nmve makes it much more expensive, an I correct? Is nmve the type of m.2 port?
>>51737317
All here for you bro, The sata 850 evo often beats its m.2 brother in load times
>>51737354
So, you're shilling a drive you don't even have, hilarious.
>>51737382
My point is, op talks like he had one when is just shilling.
>>51737391
I think you are confusing me with OP
>>51737405
Dont be stupid then, I was talking to OP.
>>51735021
Because my motherboard came out before M.2 went mainstream. While we're on the subject, are PCI-e drives better? Or the same seeing as m.2 is more or less PCI-e anyway right?
MSI Z68A-GD65
>>51737410
I dont know how you can look at those bench marks and call it shilling.
>>51737420
M.2 in raid 0
>>51735021
Because I'm too poor to afford a Samsung 3d nand flash pcie m.2 ssd and I won the HDD lottery with my barracuda which works just fine for now
>>51737453
I already have two SSDs in raid 0, I don't even need the speed, I just wanted a single drive to show up in windows.
>>51737435
Trying to promote a slower drive is shilling, but I think OP already left in shame.
Even my fucking Alienware 15 has 2 m.2 slots.
>>51737508
Show us your timestamped alienware then anon
>>51735021
because I have a Z87 mobo
I also waiting for new 3D memory ad lower price per gigabyte

are you satan
http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-Digital-Predator-SHPM2280P2H-480G/dp/B00V01C6M8
Is there any functional difference between the M.2 SSDs and the PCIe SSDs? Is one faster or better or is it just the same thing?
>>51737622
>are you satan
Maybe
>>51737225
>>51737296
Hey man, but an m.2 is closer to like RAMdrive speeds!
Oh wait...
because I don't do enough shit that requires an m.2 over a sata ssd, especially at that price range. gonna wait a bit and then maybe?
>>51735021
The speed difference is only apparent for large files anon.
Better off not falling for the m.2 meme unless you do video work or something. Large amounts of small files is near same speed.
Plus that heat and cost.
>>51737023
+tax +tip?
>$200 for the 512gb
took a while to figure out how to get win7 installed but it was worth it. I use it on my workstation PC and seeing gigabytes of RAW files and videos move so fast makes me smile.
Boot times and general computing doesn't feel any faster than my SATA3 ssd in my other PC.
If you need one, get one, but the regular stuff is fine. My $200 WD RED 4tb in RAID 0 setup gets 550 read/450 write, so you don't always need an ssd to be sanic.
>>51736877
>M.2 is a form factor, not a connector.
Those are almost the same thing retard
M.2 also specifies the connector.
So, I feel dumb. I thought just having an M.2 that had 2280 dimensions was going to fit, but now I'm confused with this key system. If I got the 850 EVO that has a B+M key, would it work in a slot that uses either B or M or does the slot have to read both B+M?
Samsung 950 pro master race reporting in........ 256gb was 189. Expensive but fast as fuck......
>tfw you'd want one of these, but then you'd have to upgrade motherboard and processor and probably RAM as well.
I just don't have the 800€ to do it...
>>51738363
Will buy it ASAP also. Was getting a traditional SSD but these are on another level. I got a new system with Z170 and only HDD for now. But I am going for the 950 Pro 512 soon.
>my Z97 doesnt have M.2

what kind of retard does not use YYYY/MM/DD-HH-MM-SS
I'm building a new computer for xmas. I was really tempted to get the 950, but I just couldn't justify the price. The raw benchmarks which measure transfer speeds look amazing, but other benchmarks which measure the actual time it takes to do common tasks like booting and loading big applications show only a very minor increase in performance. I decided that it just wasn't worth the price just yet. SSD prices are falling like a rock, so in another couple years I can get a bigger capacity for less money. I got a Skylake board, so I can always upgrade later.
>>51735021
I would get one but my motherboard disables 2 of my 6 Sata ports if i use it.
And i need them.
