Maybe I am misunderstanding what it is. But if you have a new z97+ mobo, shouldn't you also buy an m.2 ssd for waaaaay faster speeds? I know you could still buy a normal ssd with sata express, but why mess with all the cables and crap when you can just screw a tiny m.2 ssd onto the mobo? Can someone please explain to me what I should be buying in reagards to ssd's?

June/July this year.

I see at the same shop now theyre the same price as the M.2 I mentioned.

Altho your prices maybe different from mine. Since I buy local not from overseas.

Since (probably) by the time I pay for something from overseas, (depending on where it is overseas), freight would have to be added, + currency conversion.

And it'll probably cost the same or more. Than what I pay here in the end

Only things I have purchased overseas so far is an ASUS TPM module and a few netbook parts from Ebay

How long ago did you buy the Samsung? Prices are dropping.

June - Nov could easily make that difference.
