The specs are largely worthless, there are few to no applications that would benefit from the "speed" of the Intel. Most of the time I'd suggest you buy the cheapest SSD reliable enough for your needs.
Buy what you need for the job, not on specs alone.
We've bought 4 Intel 750 to start our NMVe adventures.
NVM'e as a bomb but the sad thing, that tests do not show the real performance of NVM'e drives. We have NVM'e VPS nodes, Full loaded VPS node uses 5 - 6% of the NVM'e performance.
