Thought I'd share some feedback regarding my results. Having swapped the Samsung 970 EVO Plus for the 970 Pro, macOS Mojave installs and runs without error.
It is a pity that the Plus cannot be used with macOS, since it costs significantly less than the Pro and is capable of much higher write speeds.
I've attached screenshots of disk speed tests using both drives in Windows, where the Plus functioned well. Also attached are screenshots of disk speed tests in Mojave, where the performance degradation of the Plus is clearly reflected.
Even though more expensive and unnecessary for consumer workstation use, it is worth noting that the Pro does have the 2-bit MLC advantage.
Very helpful information. Thnx for sharing. Just found out about the EVO Plus limitations although am still not sure what the anomaly could be that results in the performance hit.
