Here are the base specs : https://www.techpowerup.com/ssd-s...-1-tb.d667

DRAM could provide a buffer between the computer memory and the drives blocks that are actually written to (TLC) , the controller has a little but 32MB is full really fast.

Problem for me having the same use case for this drive as Orang3Beard is that in a NAS this could be a great replacement for spinning disks, but in RAID it would be just too limited. The real bottleneck is here :
Die Read Speed: 727 MB/s
Die Write Speed: 69 MB/s

With a die write speed of less then 100MB/s this thing could be in continued write much slower then a comparable HDD. Painfully slow to fill up, probably quite decent to retrieve information from.
Found a review that shows with a screenshot what this could look like:
https://m.media-amazon.com/images...L1600_.jpg

Cons:
Reliability seems to be an issue according to some reviews.

Pro's:
Endurance: 450 TBW
Warranty: 3 Years
MTBF: 2.0 Million Hours

For me I would not want to make a ZFS RAIDz2 volume with these. Maybe a normal RAID1 would be cheap peace of mind..
Unless you are refurbishing an old computer for a family member that does not have to work hard daily I believe almost everybody would be helped spending $10-15 more for something better.

Wow. Oh how they have fallen! Keep dropping those prices.

At this rate no reason to have spinners anywhere in the house, save for the NAS.

Yeah it's not a performance beast but it's good enough for most users. Time to upgrade Granny's laptop

I mean i love spinners because it was basically $0.02 per GB for 5400 RPM (for movies) or $0.05 per GB for 7200 RPM (for general use) at 201X prices. but with these falling prices are we suppose to now be buying spinners for less than a penny per GB or are they going to be discontinued?

I don't need SSDs except maybe one for whatever games I'm currently playing and perhaps the OS and would prefer to pay way less for spinners for storing inactive games, movies and everything else.

I mean, if they would credit the difference up to a certain amount of time that would be nice but Amazon does this to themselves forcing customers to return and rebuy if the price drops. $3 I probably wouldn't but hey, few bucks saved is a few bucks saved

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

People need to relax about the lack of DRAM. If all you're doing is browsing the web and streaming videos, you won't notice a difference.

I agree, a credit is probably the only scenario that makes $ense. I'm not sure how tough that is these days with Amazon - I know it used to be pretty easy in the past, requesting a credit inside a certain timeframe and if the difference wasn't worth the hassle of processing the return. But I know a lot of places have tightened up on that.

I don't need SSDs except maybe one for gaming and would prefer to pay way less for spinners for non gaming storage.
I would imagine discontinuation at some point. The manufacturing and assembly assets are going to need replacement eventually, and at the current price/performance/reliability comparison for hdd-ssd those at manufacturer, wholesaler, and retailer level would probably be better off by streamlining to just ssd skus once that happens. Less variety and quantity of raw materials, fewer types of component creation, fewer qc steps and variables, reduced types of packaging, simplifying warranty and repair process, etc etc etc.

Yeah it's easy to do, just watch some YT videos. What sucks is backing up and restoring installed games. So much stuff is digital that you're going to eat hours & bandwidth getting everything back to where it was. If your running an old 500gb spinner in a PS4 you're gonna see a big improvement in the long run, the file transfer though is slow and painful 😣

If you have sata cables I think you can just clone and extend the drive.

Ok this convinced me to finally buy my first (and probably last) SSD. $30 with tax 😊

The drive could be $10 and users will still decry "nO dRaM!!" even if they have no idea what they are talking about.
