So, it looks like these are the two "prosumer" level NVMe PCIe 3.0x4 drives out at least in the near future. Which one to get?
Published numbers for the 950 pro seems to indicate the 512mb module edges out the 750 in sequential read, write, IOP's, yada yada
BUT...the Intel drive will be available at 1.2 tb from the get go, and in a mini-ITX build, it will be in a 2.5 in form factor with heatsink; and that can be easily mounted near a fan, rather than in the m.2 slot on the back of the motherboards - props for more durability/less throttling or heat issues?
So, it seems like the decision is: practicality vs. speed...
Just some thoughts..
