Evo and Evo Plus are greatly overpriced, even considering they perform better.
SN750 is of similar value (pros and cons respectively, but overall very similar), but more expensive.

I generally consider SX8200 Pro (And this GAMMIX S11 Pro as heatsink'ed version) the best overall SSD. It has plenty performance to deal with all workload, is very power efficient (SN750 is not as good on this), and good customer support. And of course, the price is really nice considering all the factors.

Sequential write is only slightly slower than some more expensive models, but in long sequential write workloads it also performs better than most of them. I think you can check Toms Hardware Review for details.

SN750 is better for desktop due to power consumption, but only when at similar price. Phison PS5016 SSDs are pretty overpriced and somewhat imbalanced. And Samsung is generally too expensive and at this time a bit outdated.
Because people don't know how to read and buy the 256GB or the 512GB version thinking it's going to have the same read and write speeds as the 2 TB version.

Other than occupation of the slot. Are there any other benefits for using 2 1tb vs 1 2tb?

Yeah, this is basically the 8200 PRO with a heatsink.

A lot of reviews are saying the NVMe isn't giving the advertised reading/writing speeds.

Edit - Amazon reviews are saying the same thing with benchmarks to prove it.

I suppose if you're paranoid of the drive dying you'll lose more of your data on a 2TB drive.

I'm personally in the market for a 2TB NVMe because my mobo only has two M.2 slots and I want all the data I can fit in the space that I have.

Yeah that's the only concern I had but by doing some research it looks like it is better to have 1 2tb so I bought this. Now huting for a good mobo for i9-10900k processor

Any reason not to buy this over WD SN750 or Samsung Evo line? In other threads ppl have said adata/xpg nvme have slower sequential write speed but I'm not seeing this with web reviews.

Well, there's what's advertised and what people are saying. The reviews on NewEgg and Amazon both are saying the reading/writing speeds are lower.

With 2 you can put them in either RAID 1 or RAID 0 for redundancy/performance purposes, although I can't imagine why you'd want to stripe them given the already high performance. Of course, I've spent enough time reading these forums (and browsing r/DataHoarder) to know that my inability to imagine something means less than nothing.

Future expandability and that comparing a larger to smaller drive, the larger versions have higher speeds.

Is that means that the motherboard that does have m.2 heatsink on board . This will not fit?
