Samsung 950 PRO NVMe M.2 256GB SSD

Tried both 256 and 512 versions (stuck with 512 since faster specs). Worked great, no issues. Once NUC posts, in win10 in 1-2 seconds.

Hate to spend extra as price will drop drastically as the year goes on. Price to pay for getting the latest tech.

This little thing is fast, very fast! This little thing is little, very little. Slightly bigger than a stick of gum. Installation as easy. No wire or cables to deal with. Installing Windows 10 was easy once I figured it out. Windows boots and is...

Extreme lack of documentation. Not knowing much about this and literally nothing in the brochure that comes with it I searched for info on how to set up BIOS. I could only find info for Win 7 and such. I couldn't find anything for Win 10 Pro. I made...

Samsung has been the leader in SSD storage for a while now, until Seagate came along with their 10GB/s PCI SSD for businesses. If your board supports M.2 and BIOS NVMe, this is the drive to get. You can also get a card to stick into the PCI slot.

I purchased 2 of these and have them configured in a RAID0 array, and let me tell you, they are out of this world...I literally scored a DiskMark benchmark score of 22,263 with these, which is about as good as you can get!

None whatsoever.

If you want the fastest boot drive possible, look no further than this bad boy, or it's 512GB brother. Worked right out of the box for my X99 system.

High price per gigabyte. As they say, you pay for performance.

see above...fast fast fast. From off to windows 10 ready was 5 sec easy to install, preformed better then advertised, write and read speed dynamic. Bios recognized it after updating Bios with newer version

none so far.

FAST. I thought going to an SSD from a mechancial hard drive was fast, but fast just got faster. Every SSD pretty much reads and writes within 500-550mb/s This ssd has a read speed of just over 2200mb/s and writes up to 900mb/s. It's fast.

Samsung magician software does not work on this.(though honestly it's fast enough) The only thing the software does is act as a benchmark. Pricey for the capacity but not for the speed.

Form factor is awesome Good looking Windows boot is blazing fast

None at all.

I did a lot of studying before buying this unit and still wasn't sure what I would be able to do before I finally got to get it going. I had to wait 3 weeks for a pcie to m.2 adapter so I could plug this baby in to my non-uefi bios, no m.2 slot...

It took some studying to get it right on my rig but it was worth it. I hope my lengthy explanation helps somebody else out with their setup.

Easy to install on Gigabyte Gaming 6, picked up by the bios with no problem. Windows 10 loaded with no problems.

None so far.
