The only bad thing is when Samsung swapped in QLC on some cards without changing SKUs. That's a dick move. Can't trust nobody.

In October 2007, it was announced that B&H Photo agreed to pay US$4.3 million to settle allegations that it discriminated against Hispanic workers, while not admitting any wrongdoing.
In November 2009, a lawsuit against B&H Photo alleged that the store refused to hire women, in violation of New York City and New York State Human Rights Laws. The lawsuit, brought by four women, sought class action status on behalf of all women discriminated against by B&H over the course of many years. Given B&H's prior alleged discriminatory practices, the lawsuit sought US$19 million in compensatory and punitive damages to deter future discriminatory practices. In 2011, a lawsuit alleged discrimination against Hispanic workers.
In February 2016, the United States Department of Labor Office of Contract Compliance filed a lawsuit against B&H alleging that the company had only hired Hispanic men into entry-level jobs in a Brooklyn warehouse, and then subjected them to harassment and unsanitary conditions. On August 16, 2017, the company announced that it had settled this matter for a reported $3.22 million, while not admitting any wrongdoing.
In November 2019, According to The Verge, the Attorney General of New York state filed a lawsuit alleging that B&H knowingly failed to pay millions of dollars in sales taxes due in New York. The company's spokesperson has said that "B&H has done nothing wrong and it is outrageous". According to B&H, the Attorney General is alleging that customers should pay sales tax on pre-discounted prices, not on the actual selling price, which is the widespread industry practice.
p.s defin not getting my business- i'd be willing to pay extra $20 and buy it elsewhere.

Now, the issue is that companies are changing components that cause notable performance decreases (both speed and endurance in the case of SSDs switching from TLC to QLC NAND), and that is definitely wrong. Samsung doesn't appear to be doing that, but correct me if I'm wrong.
I would be interested to find out what drive B&H is shipping. The decription still mentions the (original) Phoenix controller but I would not be surprised if people get a drive with an Elpis controller.
finally placed order from BHP directly.

I also heard that samsung has also since upgraded the controller on the latest models with the same controller found on the 980 pro.
if you're putting it in a desktop with pcie 4.0 support then the 980 pro makes sense, otherwise 970 evo plus is the better buy IMHO.
while i was waiting for the replies.. i did search my laptop manual.. i understand that my laptop(though its latest i7 11Gen model) still have M.2, PCIe3×4, NVMe SSD. so its not worth to go for 980 Pro.
Thank you for your explanation. much appreciated.
"Essentially, newer 970 EVO Plus releases come equipped with the same Elpis controller as the 980 PRO SSD instead of the PCIe Gen 3.0 Phoenix controller."
