So it's all sales bullshit, then...that sux !!!

Just out of interest I went looking for a Youtube clip of a test of the Adata drive, and this guy (who prefers Samsung's), said the Adata's were quite comparable, and he showed some Crystal Disk Mark results of the Adata on some hi end MSI board (I think it was), ANYWAY, I noted the "numbers", and did a Crystal test on mine, and wasn't really that close...all I can think is there is a performance hit, having to use NVMe's via a PCI-e adapter.

Having said that, it was good of byteshare to contribute to the data, and the Adata is only a little "slower" than his "basic" 970's.

I also tried several different PCI-e slots, to no avail, and I created a "Spanned" set in Disk Manager, and run your test, didn't make a **** of difference, either...wierd thing, even though they were suppose to be spanned, when I ran the test, it only seemed to be accessing one "drive", not both (as per blinking led's)

Anyway, you get what you pay for forget the hype !!!
