Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

Good deal, yes...
It has been on/off $129.99 on NewEgg for the past couple months, though. Still seems to be the 'best' option (currently) for a budget 2TB nvme drive (esp. if looking for a Gen4 drive to 'fill out' your budget build)
Tweak Town also has a detailed (and highly positive) review of this drive. (Other review sites rated the drive lower) In 'real world' use and not raw benchmarks, this drive is *surprisingly* good for a DRAMless QLC drive. (which most reviews agreed on, in particular)

I *almost* pulled the trigger on this, but NewEgg lists this precise item as being part of the upcoming 11/2/22 'ShellShocker' deals.

Kingston is notorious for swapping components and reducing performance after the reviews come out. Also, there's reports of some of the Kingston drives becoming slower than an HDD after being mostly filled.
(I wouldn't hesitate to buy a 'top end' (KC3000) Kingston unit on a deep discount, but from experience: stay away from Kingston's budget-thru-midtier offerings.)

Solidgm is SK Hynix's brand for their purchase of Intel's flash memory IPs and manufacturing.
I trust them over Kingston.

Just picked up one of these P41+ drives to replace my 2 960GB Samsung PM963s. Couldn't wait for my 'target price' of $50/TB for a gen4 drive. Maybe I'll pick up another, sometime around BF...

What would be the downside to replacing spinning rust with an array of these in a server?

Solidgm is a brand set up by Hynix after they bought Intel's SSD product line.
They're handling all the service and RMA of all existing Intel SSD as well as Solidgm: https://www.intel.com/content/www...orage.html

Good part is Solidgm still inherited the 5 years warranty on all it's SSD no matter QLC or TLC nand. Which does proof it's sturdiness in contrary some brand only provide 3 or less years of warranty but advertise they're using TLC nand.

Limited PCIe lanes for M.2 drives? Write endurance since this is QLC? Servers usually value capacity over speed and are limited by network speed, not disk speed, so the question you might want to ask is, "What would be the benefit of replacing mechanical disks with this?"

You could get a couple of 8TB or larger drives at $120 each.

What server has that many m.2 slots let alone the pcie lanes to serve them? I guess you could buy pcie cards to add m.2 slots but they would bottleneck. You would spend a lot of money and not get anywhere near max performance.

Aside from the obvious answer of a large upfront cost, a more specific answer greatly depends on the "server" and its workload.

I think new thread rippers have 128 lanes and there are expensive multiplexers that allow drives to share lanes. That being said, you probably aren't going with these drives if kitting out that kind of server. The ASUS hyper gen4 AIC is good for 16 lanes if a GPU isn't needed in the main slot. 8GB might be good enough for some applications.

The primary benefit I was looking at is power savings. The power draw on these active is measured in milliwatts vs watts used for idle/sleeping rust drives.

Modern systems start at 24 PCIe lanes and passive PCIe to m.2 adapters are cheap. A modern desktop motherboard with support for PCIe bifurcation will support a minimum of 6 m.2 drives at full speed.
