i guess for games and system it's better to look for SLC, MLC or TLC due to TBW, and for long term storage or situations, where you need the drive for reads mostly - consider QLC based SSD. It apply to 2.5" or M.2 0:13 - Coz of price, obviously, 1 GB per $1 in SSD vs HDD. And, partially, due to you can get 20+ TB in one unit for HDD and 8 TB for SSD (consumer grade) .... basically by saving the space. And ... controller in SSD could die as well due to heat =)
As such, what QLC SSDs achieve in lower costs and increased capacity, they lose in endurance and reliability. Current QLC SSD cells can only endure about 1,000 program-erase cycles before they start to break down and become unreadable. SLC SSDs, on the other hand, can probably be erased and rewritten more than a hundred thousand times before they start to break down. You are right
ITX systems really start to depend on sata SSDs. It's a little less of an issue these days with high capacity nvme drives, but adding a drive is easier and faster than, say, swapping a boot ssd.
I'm using them, my PC does not support NVME, I mean I have a single SATA m.2 drive but that's occupied with my OS install. Really this is the next best option for me personal
The one I got from Amazon 4TB was not working properly It showed on the disc management that over half of the data was not allocated, couldn't allocate it no matter what I could only use 1.99 TB Returned it after 3 hrs, it shouldn't be this hard
Honestly, I am really sorry to hear this. I am shocked that something like this even happens because so far I haven't encountered any issues in general with TeamGroup products. :/
Amazing SSD review, keep it up bro! 😎 I wonder if there's any difference with using a 2.5 inch SSD vs M.2 SSD in games when loading objects/textures? Thanks very much for sharing this video! 💖 *Greetings from Costa Rica!* 🌴
I took a look at your video because i was thinking about buying one for my mini PC which i was also planning on partitioning it for 1.5TB for windows to have my games on it and 2.5TB to install Bazzite on the system so i could sort of have a steam deck experience with it. Also my mini PC uses the Ryzen 9 6900HX with the Radeon 680M which is good and all but would like to have maybe a better gaming experience through the Linux side since even on my testing between the mini PC and my Steam Deck i noticed the Steam Deck's 1% and .1% lows is a little better and stable over the mini PC playing the same games on Windows.
This drive is 4 TB - how often do you change its content? In nas the content does not change that often- or am I wrong? Only wanna know why people have fear of btw in nas … I wouldn’t use it as ssd powering heavily changing caches or databases -😂

0:03 ....I am still using 2½" SSDs.
Honestly, I do know people are using 2.5" still. Nothing wrong with them. Just wanted to make an intro hehe. :) Which one are you using?

You can't fill up SSDs. As the begin to get full they misbehave.
So would you prefer this vulcan z or the ex2 elite ?
vulcan z

Epic!
Is this like the Samsung 2.5 SSD’s? Where they have a metal like chassy?
I think nothing beats Samsung when ti comes to SSDs...
QLC?
Apparently it is TLC (NAND flash used is Hynix's 128-layer 3D TLC), not QLC. Plus it has large SLC cache.
So may we trust this ssd just for data storage expantion (photos videos) ?
Of course it is significantly more reliable then a HDD.
The one I got from Amazon 4TB was not working properly

With only 900TBW, I wouldn't trust it to use in NAS.
