The 800Gb Intel 750 series SSD is one of the fastest SSD money can buy It is perfect to go in your new Skylake system.
Lowest price from the rest of Australia is $1149 plus delivery. For today only, get it for an incredible $999 including free delivery. Insurance and surcharge optional. Only @ NetPlus!

950*
Yeah thanks, typo :)
No Australian pricing but the estimated global RRP is available.
256gb - US$199.99
512gb - US$349.99
It should be roughly in line after currency exchange.
Insurance and surcharge optional … well for $999 I think insurance really should be a strong consideration. And how can one say no to an optional surcharge.
Cant wait for pricing on these drives to come down to sane levels.
In the meantime very happy with my 'slower' SSD drive.
that read and write latency is pretty low, any one seen any faster?
Sammy just announced the 950 Pro a couple of days ago, it will be the fastest ssd.
Seek speeds OR transfer through put ? I prefer latency over bandwidth
Ok I misunderstood your question, I though your were referring to the sequential read/write. I dont think Samsung published the latency figure.
Np, I suspect it'll be about 50nano seconds. Or a bit under. In which case 2 in raid 0 would be similar for a lot less $.
I had a lot of issues with the revo drive which has put me off pcix ssds in any event. :-(
Not to be a snob, but 20 vs 50 nano? Other than boasting to your mates that you have the fastest drive but how does that really affect your real world usage? I suspect both will open programs faster than you can release your mouse click. Please enlighten the rest of us who are less technical.
μ = microseconds - Its 50000 nano seconds vs 20000 Nano seconds
Nano seconds (ns) is more used with volatile memory latency
Close enough :-)
To answer the question. It's the same as the seek speed of milliseconds to microseconds from a normal hhd to a ssd. All those many small windows files getting read and written too. It's a lot more snappier. The through put of 500meg/sec isn't noticeable unless you copy gigs from 2 ssds. For my use compiling solutions in visual studio with lots of small files helps a lot.
Samsung 850 Pro m.2 (512GB) is faster, but no word on Australian pricing yet. It should be cheaper per GB, however.
