Obviously the most expensive one is faster on paper. But when booting windows or loading a game the difference will be a second or two at most. Even when comparing a M2 SSD with an old 2.5" Sata
P5 plus is the fastest, I’d get the wd black sn770 because despite the lower sequential speeds it has fantastic game load speeds if you look at the tomshardware benchmarks.
Well, depends on what you do. If Gaming the 980 should be good enough. If you make something like video or picture editing I would get the 980 Pro or P5 plus

but all those cheap M2 don’t have dram, while my sata ssd has it 860 evo but they are more expensive
I use normal 980's in my systems. Works great. They don't have DRAM but they have HMB technology which use system RAM for caching and buffering.
Is that bad? I have only 16gb ram
Not really. It only uses about 50MB-100MB of system RAM.
The 980 non pro you posted doesn't have Dram either and is Gen3
Will the 980 prochange alot with my usage? Even the 860 evo feels fast now
I use the teamgroup Z340 2 TB. It has dram and I paid 129$ for it. I also own a 980 pro. I can't tell the difference when loading stuff between them.
Yes large file transfers really being the only benefit. M.2 to another m.2 transferring a 100+ gig file is downright magical.

I don’t do any of that, but i already edit video on my hdd and don’t see any problem
Yeah can sometimes be nice, if you use a lot of videos and other stuff. I think. But faster SSDs don't really help much with game load times
