melturfaceI have 2 Samsung 960 Pro 512gb in raid 0 in my current desktop and they are blazing fast. I am in the middle of a new build with 2 samsung 980 pro 1tb in raid 0. You would have to make sure both slots are X4 compatible and that they don't share PCIX with a graphics card or something else. Alot of motherboards cut the speed to 2x when running two M.2 drives, which will drop the performance. But running two or more on a MB that supports full speed is crazy fast!

But running two or more on a MB that supports full speed is crazy fast!Well, I completely overlooked this fact and I just checked and my Asus laptop manual mentions this: NOTE: The M.2 2280 slot II supports PCIe (NVMe) SSD while slot I and slot III support both PCIe (NVMe) SSD and SATA SSD. The RAID setup resides in Slots 1&2, 960 is in 3, wondering if I remove the 960 then it'll retain full speeds...

Yea but what does it say about the X speed, is it full X4 in both slots, or doe it knock them down to X2 or X1??????
