The price was dropped to $199.99 at many stores last month. This is a nice additional discount on top of the recent price drop. Thanks OP!

No, it does not meet the minimum requirements of 5500 MB/s. Any 2TB drive that does is going to run $300 or more currently.

you'll need PCIe gen 4 with sequential read speed > 5,500 MB/s.

LTT did a video testing that while PCIe gen 4 drives that are slower than 5,500 will work, there's no guarantee that it will continue to do so.

PCIe gen 3 (like this one) will not work at all.

yes, just small because it uses a phison e12s.

wouldn't bite at this price point, uses micron QLC nand. ServeTheHome did a great review about this drive. my main issue is the post cache speeds are around 100 mb/s, basically worse than a hard drive. and write speeds on some of the ATTO I/O tests were horrendous.

I would rather get a cheap HMB drive with TLC nand.

It seems like you know your stuff.

I am an avid gamer, what NVME is suggested? I keep hearing different things.

I don't mind spending extra $ for a faster drive, but I am told PC gaming doesn't require anything above 3000 read/write. Would the difference between 3000 and 5500 read/write be significant in a game like an MMO or shooter?
