The new, best thing in storage technology, NVMe, which has been hot property in the server market due to it's extreme transfer speeds, has now reached the desktop market. The Samsung SM951 M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD is the new performance leader in M.2 form factor SSD's. Providing up to 3000MB/s read and 1200MB/s write sequential data transfer rates, along with astounding random I/O ratings of 270k reads and 420k writes.
The Samsung PM981 (NVMe) is compatible as a boot device in a wide variety of systems. This includes the lastest based motherboards, modern notebooks, and tiny form factor PC's like the Intel NUC. It can also act as additional super high speed storage in almost any desktop with a spare PCIe slot when combined with a PCIe adapter.
PLEASE NOTE: Some M.2 motherboards only support SATA 6Gbps speeds or PCI-e x 2 lanes. You need to make sure your board supports NVMe and PCI-E x4 Lanes to get the full speed from this SSD.
