Still really debating getting this drive. Not sure if prices are going to get lower. I am not in need of a drive right now, but for under $200, 2tb of nvme storage seems like a bargain. Thoughts?

Just make sure the enclosure is M.2 and NVMe capable, most cheap USB enclosures are only M.2 SATA compatible.

This is a great deal, but I'm holding out for a Black Friday sale on a 2TB SSDs. The price for the Intel 660p and all SSDs have been steadily dropping all year.

A better question is, do you plan on actually using the 2TB capacity, or do you plan on keeping most of the drive empty?
If you're buying the drive for it's capacity and plan on actually using it...

This is about twice as fast as any SATA drive on the market. I think we are at the point were SATA drives became obsolete based on the price/storage or price/speed.

One more thought. What's the make/model of your mobo?
If the Gen3 M.2 has dedicated lanes to the MOBO, stick it in there until you upgrade.

The Taichi? This is exactly the board I'm using. I've decided to go Samsung 960 Pro for the primary and the Intel 2 TB as the storage drive. We'll see how it goes.
