Corsair Neutron NX500
I’m coming away with similar feelings to my MP500 review and I guess that makes sense as they are very similar products. The Corsair drives suffer from no real weaknesses, they're blistering fast, but given the nearly matching price, Samsung drives are still a tad faster.

Corsair has created a product that is indulgently high-end, right from its packaging and design to its specifications and performance scores. If you're concerned about getting the highest capacity for your money, this drive isn't for you. The 400GB...

With all the latest mainboards featuring at least one M.2 NVMe compatible slot (most come with two) it's a safe guess that the majority of people interested in the NX500 and other PCIe SSDs will be owners of older models like the X79 of...

The Neutron NX500 800GB is a beautiful SSD that is 200GB shy of a full deck. The increased overprovisioning doesn't boost performance as much as we expected, and application performance falls in the middle of existing 1TB products. Sadly, this drive costs more then that 960 Pro, and that's unacceptable for buyers.

It's tough to be particularly amazed by any SSD these days. The throughput boost over SATA drives that PCIe NVMe drives enjoy is by now well established, and even among our small selection of relatively old drives (we haven't had many SSDs in of late),...
