For what it's worth I bought this same drive last year for ~$165 and that was an excellent price at the time. Prices have dropped been dropping for solid state drives for a while and may continue to drop.

Gen 3 vs Gen 4 doesn't really matter much for an OS drive. Random read/write benchmarks (with QD 4 or less) would be more telling of performance versus the sequential speeds.

Now if you're someone who will be copying over large files on a regular basis (such as for video editing), that's where the Gen 4 speeds will be most beneficial.

I have been running the 1TB version of this drive and it runs great. I run it with an 11th gen i5, 32GB of DDR4 3200 RAM, and an RTX 3090. I get great benchmarks. Plus I use Samsung Drive Magician (it's free) to maintain the firmware and log the performance.

This is Gen 3 ~3,500MB/s. If your hardware supports it, it'll be fine for the OS (faster than HDDs and SSDs). It's not the latest/greatest/fastest for high-end systems though.

yes. This is a fast drive. Even ssds run windows 11 well and they're 7 times slower

makes no difference. You won't notice the difference between gen3 or 4 unless you're writing terabytes for hours.

same goes for ddr4 and 5

Why do you keep quoting me? Leave me out of whatever debate you feel like you're involved in.

Same price as NoEgg with out any risk. Did I not see this for $80 2 days ago?.. Prices are indeed still falling and I was told the price would stabilize by now too.
