The Samsung 950 PRO M.2 SSD uses the PCIe 3.0 x4 interface along with NVMe and Samsung’s latest V-NAND technology to bring amazing performance (sequential reads of 2500 MB/s and writes of 1500 MB/s) to mainstream users at affordable price points. The Samsung 950 Pro SSD will be available in 256GB and 512GB capacities with MSRPs of $199.99 and $349.99, respectively. This puts the price per GB for the 950 PRo at around $0.68 for the 512GB drive and $0.78 for the 256GB drive, which is arguably aggressive for a drive like this.

Where can one get a copy of that NVMe driver?

I've asked Samsung for the information on public access to the NVMe driver. I used a beta driver for the review and I'm not sure that is the final build they will be releasing to the public as I've had it for several weeks. There was an BSOD (DPC Watchdog Violation) issue I found on Windows 8.1 with Secure Erase and Samsung Magician 4.3, so some of that might be something that can be fixed in the driver.

I was told that it’ll be available when the product is available... They are looking into if the new NVMe driver will work with the SM951 NVMe drives.
