In real-world usage the performance of most drives will be basically the same, but with the P31's large efficiency lead it's pretty enticing to think we might be able to get that kind of efficiency while also getting that huge Gen4 throughput boost... you know, just in case Direct Storage ever actually makes use of it.

Sabrent the better value?
I got the Sabrent rocket 8 months ago and paid about $350 for it. $220 is an incredible price for a 2TB PCIe Gen 4.
These rocket drives do have some weirdness about them. The write speeds can come down a lot over time and you will get "only" 1000MB/s, but read will stick at 5000MB/s. This lowering of the write speed is an issue I saw on my drive that could only be reset by reformmating the drove. It doesn't happen to everyone.
Compared to a PCIe Gen 3 , I would take the rocket to get double the speeds , and you can always RMA it if it develops the problem o described above.
Obviously, your system needs to support PCIe Gen 4 to take advantage of this.
