"The P3, like the P3 Plus, is capable of using all of its native QLC in a single-bit pSLC mode. This allows for a cache up to about 550GB. Once it runs out of cache the P3 is forced to free up space by copying data from pSLC to QLC which slows it down greatly; the write speed plummets from 3.2 GBps to 100 MBps."

Can someone tell me which 4tb drives on the market don't have the slow down issue that these drives have?

Quote from n2liquid :
They all should be going lower. Memory chip prices aren't expected to recover until Q3-Q4 this year. These type drives could be sub $150 by summer.

You are right
I would hold the trigger this time. Samsung's semiconductor Dep swing to 1q loss and estimate would be around $0.3 billion loss. but they didn't decrease in production. other 2nd and 3rd place maker also would have big loss only in this quarter.
S needs to clear inventories that could trigger another chicken game. I think if we hold the trigger for a while we can see $2-3 per tb nvme in the near future.
Deflation comes in real life right now.

WD 850X is TLC. Waiting for the price to drop. There are other no-name brands but I would not recommend them.

FWIW, it also says: " The P3 should be an exceptional choice for just about any machine."

And: " Endurance is also lower, although rarely a factor. In general use it should be just fine, even at 500GB, although we still think it's best at capacity and preferably as a secondary drive. Crucial has a budget winner on their hands with the right sales pricing, but don't expect it to keep up with high-end drives."

The review says many things. I replied specifically to a question asked.

P3 is single sided.

The P3 is a better laptop choice than the P3 plus, too. It runs cooler and is more efficient.

Quote from SlickSmiles :
Anyone use this or the P3 Plus for PS5 internal storage expansion? I know they're below the 5500 Mbps spec, but curious if they will work?
PS5 only cares about the PCIe 4.0 compatibility. Speed is only a quality of life issue, but the tests out there show it's not a big descriminator.

P3 for mobile for sure. Otherwise, I'm unsure the burst speeds are worth the extra $25.
