Im waiting for black friday, I have the following 1TB drives in mind:

Sabrent 2230 4x4 (£85)

Integral 2230 4x4 (£80)

Integral 2230 3x4 (£70)

So my question is, the deck is PCIe Gen 3, so in theory the Sabrent 4x4 and Integral 4x4 wont perfrom any better than the Integral 3x4 - right or wrong?

So what would deliver the best performance? Also, what about power draw / battery life etc - Maybe a Gen4 would be better on the power draw? I dont know - any advise please?
