The prices are deal killers though, and I'd certainly never pay a premium for speed that I won't use, I already use Sammy 980 Pro/990 Pro drives, WD SN850x drives, multiple SKH drives etc. I've kind of lost count.....
When you factor in the Gen 5 prices, their heat issues, and the tight space tolerances of laptops which I use the majority of the time now, it all renders these kind of moot. I'm far more interested in space than speed and if I could migrate from 4TB to 8TB drives at reasonably prices, I'd be jumping on them. I hope they build more large Gen 4 drives.....

I have a new digital storm Velox coming. It's got the MSI CARBON MB. Has two slots for PCI-5, but the second 5 slot would share power with my GPU, (5080). So I don't want to use it.
This 9100 will go in first slot.
I sure hope DS put the PCI4 990 pro I ordered with the rig into slot 3 instead of slot one. 3 and 4 are for PCI-4.
Either way I'll have to clone their existing C data onto the 9100. Then have that one be new boot drive.
