It's a Samsung SSD 840 EVO 250GB. I imagine the 970 Pro is much faster but does it really matter for a OS drive that only boots once every couple of weeks, or whenever there is an update requiring a reboot. At 05:26 PM 11/17/2019, you wrote: I myself have gone from 860 Pro to a 970 Pro and

I myself have gone from 860 Pro to a 970 Pro and the 970 Pro is much faster. Something you might want to keep in mind. The 970 Pro is not a SATA HD. Do you mean from 970 EVO to 970 Pro? Tim Lider Red Belt at Cardenas School of Arnis Anime Enthusiast

I'd expect a slight increase in noticeable speed but nothing crazy. I've used both those drives and the Pro is definitely faster. I almost always prefer the Pro drive over the Evo and have a pro in each of my primary systems for the OS. lopaka On Sat, Nov 16, 2019 at 3:25 PM Winterlight wrote:

My OS drive is a Samsung 870 EVO 250GB. I have six core I7 running at 4.2 GHz with 64GB of Crucial Ballistic DDR3 and a Nvidia 1070. I'm not a gamer but I do video and media editing. When working with media I use my RAM = a 32 GB RAM DRIVE to work from so no drive should be as fast as that.
