Yes. Really. The 840 uses TLC NAND as opposed to the MLC NAND found in the Sandisk Ultra Plus, Samsung 840 Pro, and Intel 335. I wouldn't even consider the 840 as you are, at best, getting half the...

Anyone know if this 256GB Ultra Plus is as small as the 128GB version? See: https://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=57353354&postcount=10

It shows up fine with the coupon. However, I think I'm going to hold off for the next Samsung 840 $150-$155 deal. The 840 seems to be a bit better than this drive, but this isn't a bad deal.

At best half the life span. The average user can expect an MLC NAND based SSD to last about 4 years before seeing some speed degradation or even outright failure. TLC hasn't yet been used enough in...

Thanks for the info! If I calculated correctly, that works out to around 42GB per 24 hours. Do you leave this system on 24/7 or is this typically on when it is being used?

About 15-18 I figure - it does hibernate after 2hrs idle, it's not extreme use but does go 24/7 on occasion.

It's not just about benchmarking. I'll take a slightly slower MLC drive any day over a TLC drive.

I've seen the TLC and MLC conversation come up many a time in the past but how much time are we talking here for a typical PC? Is it months or years that the TLC will crap out?
