Samsung quality and reliability .. but this is not just QLC, but QLC + SATA + early QLC. This drive doesn't even pretend to be fast. Read speeds are 'good' but writes are astonishing. I needed one of these for a work project where I needed 7TB of data in a micro PC format. It had a SATA slot and an NVMe slot. CDW only had this drive in stock, the out of stock 8TB was a sabrent for 1200 bucks. Went with the QVO.
Struggled to keep up with an S3 download on gigabit fiber. It wasn't the source or the machine; the drive was showing latencies > 500ms.

Also, the biggest consumer 2.5" mechanical hard drive you can buy is only 5TB, so this is the best you can do if you want a 2.5" drive for use in an external case. I bought this to install in my desktop, but in the future if I switch to a laptop as my main machine, I can turn this into a USB powered 8TB drive.

I think b/c of the the qlc it was slow and I replaced it with the Samsung tlc drive and speeds can now reach a sustained 2.5Gbps for as long as it needs. Not everyone is this use case but if you're thinking of using it for something similar I'd reconsider as others have mentioned
Edit: Not sure what I did, but it's showing correct in My Cart now.
