About this store:
See the Newegg return policy for returns information.
For those that are not aware, Newegg went public on Nasdaq, just a month ago, with Chinese investors. They were bad before, but just wait. I'm done with them. Just last month, SD was advertising Newegg's IPO on their own advertising bulletins, knowingly or not.
apples to oranges.
if you compare dram-less nvme, their power consumption are about the same.
case in point, 980 is maxed out at 4.3W (and about twice as fast both on read and write)
SN550 is maxed out at 3.9W (and about 50% faster on read)
so if you REALLY value about battery life, you should care about performance per unit watt. 980 consumes 30% more power but performs 100% better, so for a given task, it is actually uses 40% less power, all for 10 dollar more.
honestly, given the 980's price tag and performance, i don't know why anyone would go for anything else for general home use(esp at MSRP)

i wonder if Amazon will Price Match
any reason not to jump on this deal
what stands out is the Warranty: Limited 5-year or 800TBW more then double most
and it VERY LOW POWER 3.3v - 1a
many others are 3.3v - 2.8a those will get very hot and suck batteries dry

thank you for the info
i looked at the Specs 980 FOR THE 500gb Power Draw:
4.3 W (Active) 5.9 W (Max) 5.0 mW (Standby) [B]~1.8amps Endurance TBW: 300 TB
the Gigabyte 512gb
Power Draw:
Avg. Read : 3.3W ; Write : 2.8W (Idle) 1.8mw ~1amp Warranty: Limited 5-year or 800TBW
so the Gigabyte is $14 less
the Gigabyte is slower but still faster then any Sata SSD
uses ~1/2 the power and is Guaranteed to last more the 2 times longer
Being single core and dram less and offering 800TBW i am sure is not going to last long either way they just wanna sell it, if it breaks down sure then there is warranty but still is your data.

BUT this is a gem for in a laptop with 1/2 the drain and very cool
in a desktop it would not typically matter EXCEPT LASTING 2x longer
