The damage has been done to Samsung's sickly 990 Pro SSDs despite the new firmware fix

This is the regular 980, not the Pro, which means no DRAM cache.

Reliable SSDs may be worth the extra cost compared to cheaper brands for a system drive. The SSD should also have DRAM cache, but unfortunately still PCIe 3.0.

They had these types of issues at least since the 840. E.g., https://www.extremetech.com/compu...by-samsung

Samsung products have always been sketchy. From SSDs to smartphones to TVs to appliances. It was Samsung that started the 3-Bit MLC nonsense and their recent SSDs are plagued with the 0E issue.
Besides, they not only cheated in smartphone benchmarks but also in TV benchmarks.

Seems expensive 1TB from Teamgroup is $42. Even for a performance SSD like this it should only be a couple of bucks more not 2X especially now when there is a massive oversupply of DRAM and NAND memory right now.

Was a fan of Samsung until I had a job where I had to RMA hundreds of 214T monitors for our customer. Great looking monitor for the time but low reliability.

This drive has HBM which is better then dram cache.. What makes this deal lukewarm is the 3.0.. If it was 4.0 would be a killer deal.. Like the recent WD NVMEs on sale.

How is it better when it constantly needs to stop when the SLC cache is full? I use this as my daily driver, sometimes transferring files to my NAS over a 10GB connection.
