So these drives are respectably fast and Im wondering what the PC side equivalent is for my Gaming PC looking to get the new PCI 5.0 Samsung maybe.

thank you guys,
 
It doesn't have a "drive" as such. It's just FLASH chips soldered onto the board. The controller is in the M4 SoC. I assume the FLASH is sourced from whoever and tested.

If you want something equivalent for your PC, you probably won't notice anything better than a PCIe 4.0 Samsung 990 Pro unless you have specific use cases. The new Samsung PCIe 5.0 ones are still well in unknown territory.
