Wow! That's one fast card!!! And actually the price isn't too bad considering it's Samsung and by a long way one of the fastest drives out there...

I'm impressed, this will be on my next build, thanks for sharing!

I'm sure it won't be long before PCS have it as an option.

Got released last week and most resellers are stocking them now.

Samsung's next-gen 980 Pro SSD to deliver blistering speeds up to 7,000MB/s

This is considerably faster than the SSDs inside the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, with a caveat.

Chatted to them. Still on ETA I'm afraid. Amazon are stocking them now as well.
