Preemptive NOT compatible with PS5.
Wow, these deals keep getting better. This is still one of the better drives on the market even though its Gen 3. If you need an OS drive or extra space for games on your PC, you won't notice a difference between Gen 3 v Gen 4 speeds.

The main exception is if you're a video editor and are copying large files all day...that's where the faster Gen 4 drives may make a difference.
WIth this drive for $75, and the Intel 670p 2TB (also with DRAM) for $70, I can't understand why anyone is buying all those sketchy also-ran drives in that front page deal from the other day.

Another $5 off - this is frontpage deal.

Somehow, Samsung woke up and slashes price like others.

This one has DRAM - if someone wonders.

are you referring to the Crucial FP deal? I thought Crucial was a reptable and reliable brand?

I was close to buying this drive, but decided to wait for the 980 pro or something else. The 970 series seems to run super hot. I'm seeing people report replacing their 970 with a 980 pro and getting much lower temps on the SSD with the same case and slot.

Seems like you can't use the 970 in a laptop without good air flow.

Help guys, I have a 3050ti legion 5600h laptop, I have a measly 500gb ssd or 256gb I forget. anyway looking to upgrade, got 2 options im interested in

I am leaning towards Samsung because I like Samsung as a brand. 2tb 970 evo plus 75 dollars or 2tb 670p for 70 dollars. price dont matter, they are close.

Which is going to run better inside my laptop? I read the 970 is a hot beast, but if the 670 is a lot cooler, going that route.

place a thermal pad/heatsink and make it touch the metal part of the chassis.

They are, just these have dram so usage and speed wise, they are much better in performance compared to anything without dram even if apple made them.
