For those still wondering, 451.79$ for 1 TB pcie card, 427.39$ for the M.2 with heatstink, 415.19$ for the m.2 without heatsink. Pretty annoying that the price is never in these tables.
According to Tomshardware: "You can't control the light show, but it changes colors based on drive activity." so unfortunately it sounds like you can't turn off the RGB.
Billy, AnandTech, can you please make sure you extensively test if this new M9Pe drive exhibit the same Garbage Collection issue, which plagued (and is plaguing) M8PE drives by permanently reducing write performance after? This issue is not widely discussed (you can google for it with "plextor m8pe garbage collection issue"), but Plextor never bother to really fix it.

Seems performance is a mixed bag, going from mlc to tlc is never a good thing.http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/plextor-m9pe-s...
