Did anyone who preordered this actually receive the item?

Preordered Nov 3rd for the second time(original preorder was back in October, but redid to take advantage of Watch Dogs 2 promo) and just received an email that I'll be receiving it on January 4th now!

does this work with linux

Linux has officially supported NVMe since kernel version 3.3, which is quite old at this point, so unless you're running a super old (5+ years) distribution it should work fine.

The 960 Evo is faster than the 950 Pro and very close to the 960 Pro, but has an endurance of 100TB vs 400TB and a 3 year vs 5 year warrantyhttp://www.anandtech.com/show/10698/samsung-announces-960-pro-and-960-evo-m2-pcie-ssds
