Unless you're using this in a server farm constantly writing data (probably wouldn't be doing that with a consumer SSD anyway), you'll be fine for 10+ years.

There is nothing wrong with this SSD. It will meet the majority of people's needs and at an excellent price.

I typically get max 100MBps for transfers to/from USB3 external HDD. Recently toyed around with NVMe for the first time & got about 3000MBps for transfers from internal NVMe to external NVMe (the ones I have aren't on the higher end spec wise). The speeds are awesome but I don't really do enough copies to external to justify spending a ton to get a high capacity external NVMe like this one.
Very tempting...

I heard Samsung has the best controller.

For this drive, the cache is the QLC itself working in pseudo-SLC mode. QLC holds 4 bit per cell, but in pseudo-SLC mode it is 1 bit per cell, the cache size is around 1/(2^4/2^1) = 1/8 of the free space available, or around 500GB initially. There is some small amount of over provisioning in all of these SSDs, so in reality it would be a little over 500GB, but note as you fill it up, the cache space available reduces dramatically. For this purpose and for write leveling purpose, you should never utilize more than 80% of your SSD (especially cheap ones without DRAM or decicated cache like this).
But, even with this caveat, I would still recommend something like this for most people. People should not be doing full drive copies every day. And this is sufficient for 95% of the people out there.

A: This is the model I am using on my PS5. It works well and did consistently well in reviews for use in the PS5.

Q: Is the 4tb compatible with the PS5 and does it come with a heatsink?
A: Thank you for contacting customer service.
I am pleased to confirm that part (CT4000P3PSSD8) is compatible with the PS5 and it will not come up with heatsink.
Yours sincerely,
The Crucial team.

That being said it's no firecuda 530.
