Just ordered an SDS Plus drill the Ryobi ERH-750V.

I'll let you know how it is once I've tested it.

Can someone tell me the difference between SDS Plus and SDS Max?

SDS Max is a heavier duty system. Used on larger machines, generally for larger diameter holes and chisels.

The shank is similar to the sds plus, but also has extra groove.
