I have this drive and it is fantastic. Very, very fast. Great random and sequential speeds for both reading and writing. It does not get bogged down and is really good at managing cache during very large write operations. This is a tremendous drive and worth every penny.

Considering that recently, the HP EX920 512GB M.2 PCI-E 3.0 x4 NVMe SSD has also been $99.99 @ Newegg, this price for the WD makes sense, if they want to remain market-competitive.

Edit: Not trying to thread-crap this deal, just trying to inform. Anyways, found out that the HP EX920 512GB is actually $89.99 this weekend, so I post a separate deal for that.
