You're experiencing a noticeably slower storage solution. The 980 Evo lacks a DRAM cache, so it depends entirely on your computer's RAM to hold data indexes. It also doesn't have its own cache for read/write operations. This means it will access NAND storage directly, which is now sufficiently fast that you probably won't feel the impact. Overall, it remains a solid drive. However, SSD performance isn't just about how it connects to your PC.
