5-year warranty, Staggering real-world 5GB read and 4GB write speeds, Visible game load time improvements, Impressive Mtbf and TBW numbers, Reduced render times in Adobe suite of products
AMD will realize the gains, Intel gets Gen 3 speeds, Premium price for premium power
I've read a lot of technical journals that insist that an M.2 drive “won't change your videogame” but seeing my load times evaporate says otherwise. I thought the 510 was a huge step forward, but seeing the 520 in action is a quantum leap. If you've got a...
