For those want to avoid tax on Newegg: list at 170 on eBay, make an offer of 150 and the seller will automatically accept.
Pros:-
- It uses MLC 3D stacked NAND that should be longer lasting
- Similar to Samsung 960 Pro (but performance may be a little different due to firmware)
Cons:-
- No real support; you cannot upgrade firmware (the picture, if correct, has revision 0)
- It's last generation 48 layer 3D stacking and not the latest Samsung controller
- It's technically slower than the 1TB NVME 960 Evo; but one would hope that the endurance is better?
If I had to buy today, this would still be my pick as I'm a fan of MLC and the price is very good.
However, Zen 2 chipsets support PCIe 4.0 that has double bandwidth; so I expect that we will see better NVME's on the horizon when Zen 2 releases. I expect these will likely be 2x the price as well (and minimal real world performance difference). I'd actually be more interested in a 2 lane PCIe 4.0 as this will get the same performance as today and allow multiple NVME drives (lanes are limited on most motherboards).
Added NVMe.

MyDigitalDiscount is best-known as the OEM of the MyDigitalSSD series, but they also sell and warranty SSDs made by other companies. They're reputable.
This is a pretty good deal for real 2-bit Samsung 3D MLC, especially at 1TB.

This seemed problematic from my reading; one suggestion was to buy a cheap brand name laptop, such as Levono, that offered this OEM drive as an option and upgrade from their website.
