So the fact that both those drives are reading at "only" around 1800Mbps is actually not something that is all that important. The 2nd graph shows the value for money, in terms of the Disk Rating per dollar.

Typically around 300-500Mbps, if you're lucky. Price and performance details for the Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 1TB can be found below. It will almost always be random reads and writes of substantially smaller groups of files, which normally will probably max you out at speeds not much different than standard SATA SSD speeds.

For actual, real world use, 99% of what you do will not be sequential large file reads or writes. CystalDiskmark Samsung SSD 960 EVO 1TB: CystalDiskmark Samsung SSD 960 EVO 250GB: Benchmark Results: The Samsung SSD 960 Pro 2TB drive reached 2,610 MB/s read and 2,136 MB/s write in.

The ONLY time you are EVER going to see those kinds of "theoretical" speeds is when running benchmarks OR possibly on a desktop when transferring files from NVME to NVME drive, or when reading one huge single file. I doubt you are doing anything wrong, and in reality it is a solution in search of a problem because in real world usage you are NEVER going to see those kinds of speeds anyhow. I've seen a lot of posts lately about 960 EVO compatibility issues, and switching to a different NVMe SSD made everything better.
