I've stopped buying ssds from companies that change their chipsets without making a new model number. They might have made it even worse than their entry level ssds, even though this one is on the XLR8 line.

Anybody know what the warranty TBW might be? The link on PNY's site isn't working.

seems like 660tbw / 5 years for the 2tb. unless you're doing an insane amount of data transfer, you'll hit the 5 year mark long before you hit the tbw. you'd have to write 361gb per day for 5 years straight to hit that tbw.

600 TBW. Still pretty good for an NVMe of this price range. This is from the Toms Hardware article linked above.

WTF...that's 3,115 TBW to 600. That's a huge change.
I know XPG also pulled this crap. Do you have a list handy? Would definitely prefer to avoid these brands.

Thanks!!
