Well, it's not that terrible as you might now be thinking after reading the review. I have a similarly designed 2TB drive (no DRAM, QLC with pSLC buffer) as my Steam game library drive. The initial...

Atomos Ninja V video recorder. The recorder only has a SATA interface, no NVME.
4K RAW video takes up a lot of space. But 500MB/s is still fast enough.

A dynamic pSLC cache can be up 25% of the total drive space. Once it's full, there's no space to write anymore, so the subsequent writes will go directly to QLC at much lower speed which is further...

Interesting. I can see that for a small capacity drive with a large cache, if such a thing exists. But what would cause a 4tb drive to reduce in sequential write speed after 1tb? Certainly not a...

In some scenarios MX500 can be better than P3 Plus. E.g. if you're filling an empty drive with data to 75%, I'm pretty sure that MX500 will finish the job ahead, because P3 will drop down to 100MB/s...

Don't try to make sense with this crowd :)
I think this would be a perfectly fine steam/game/backup drive but could still come down in price.

I'm afraid to ask... But I'm still gonna. Why are we having so much discussion over a SATA ssd? It has better TBW, at 1000 vs Crucial P3 Plus's 800. But we're talking 500ish mbps vs 4,800ish...

Depends on the NUC. While all are quite small, some are too small to mount a 2.5" internally and larger models (IIRC) have the port and mounting points to install one internally.
