TLC NAND makes this use quite a bit of power. Not recommended for laptop users who want to maintain battery life.

Yep. I am pretty certain that a TLC drive will live long beyond its obsolescence. Personally, if I pay .55 per GB for a drive, I am going to be satisfied if it lasts through its warranty period, but...

Finally approaching that magic $0.50/GB price. Surprised this didn't get more thumbs up. I guess the sweet spot for price is on the 240 GB units.
