Plus, a Radeon RX560 graphics card. I will then install Mojave in my Mid 2012 Mac Pro.
I am thinking along the same lines the EVOs and the Crest adaptor .
Couple question for you et. al.
#1
Would anyone know if the the 1 TB yields faster read/write speeds than the 500 GB ,,,like in my current 951 (AHCI) SSD where the 500 was faster than the 250 ?

Or if I go duel 1 TB's I assume the Mac sees the 2 blade config as one drive ? So I could partition it into 1 TB for PT sessions and 1 TB for FCPX projects yes? And eliminate my HDD And SATA storage altogether ? or use for backup .
