Crucial T700 is definitely fastest currently but watch out for heat!

The amount of power that Phison controller uses is insane. I guess it's to be expected after all >12GB/S is a lot.

Anyone see any real world benefit?

TBH, I cannot tell in real world use from my Seagate Firecuda 530. And it seems like the 540 is coming.

I pity anyone putting these in a gaming console. They will throttle HARD at >82C.
 
For much of PC tech now, it's the law of diminishing returns!
Only until some dramatic new development that requires CPU, RAM,.storage, etc to need significant improvements in performance or capacity. What that is, IDK. If I did, I could open a consulting business and charge like $5K an hour. :ROFLMAO:
