Can't decide whether the old or new version is better. 173% more SLC cache at 115GB so faster for file transfers using the cache. However, 47% lower sustained write speeds so really slow for big file transfers exceeding the SLC cache.

Do you always big file transfer?

Depends on your usage really. Most people will not feel the difference because we don't write that much to the SSD such that it overflows from the SLC. I suspect if you edit videos and photos, then it could potentially impact you.

I often run my SSD to 99% capacity

in the end all depends on how you use it.

At least the performance is not worst compared to other scummy manufacturers. Seems this revisions is using 980 pro controller running in PCIe 3 mode.
