AFAIK PM961 is OEM equivalent of 960 EVO. Not PRO. One is MLC, the other is TLC.

Says "Flash Type: 3-bit MLC V-NAND" in the description but sometimes those are just copy/paste

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe these work with Samsung Magician software

Indeed. PM961 = Evo 960 or similar
SM961 - Pro 960 or similar.

Also no warranty on OEM SM961 or PM961
