Huh... That's a lot cheaper than I was expecting for the "Pro" branding as that is the same MSRP that the 970 Evo started at. It does make sense due to the fact that it's not using MLC but still, I was expecting some sort of a premium so this is a nice surprise.

You mean SLC?

And yes, it's cheap. NVMEs will continue to get cheaper thanks to taking this route.

If I remember correctly, the pro drives used 2 bit which is MLC and not 1 bit which is SLC. This one uses 3 bit so it should be TLC but I could be wrong.
