I would be interested in testing and seeing what's inside an EX2 but I can't justify spending that much on something that's probably little, if any, different or better. I've bought a number of Team Group flash products recently and they've proven to be slow and unreliable. If I buy more, I'll probably experiment with other brands.
If my tests are representative of these products in general, I just can't see any justification for buying the CX2/AX2 lines. The PNY CS900 is nearly the same price, has literally identical components (besides the NAND) but performs substantially better. I also view PNY slightly more favorably than Team Group, not that I haven't had some dog-slow PNY products. At least I haven't had any PNY drives lose data, even after sitting unused for years.
At present, the bargain bin SATA drives I'd be most inclined to recommend are the PNY CS900 and the ADATA SU655. I've also had good luck with Micro Center's Inland Pro drives but I haven't bought any since pre-pandemic times and it's possible they've changed. Those drives also used the Phison S11, paired with Kioxia/Toshiba NAND, similar to the modern PNY CS900. DIShonorable mention goes to the Crucial BX500 and Team Group CX2/AX2. I haven't formed an opinion on the Silicon Power A55 yet but the horrible reviews and the fact that it's QLC make me very nervous. However, it does seem to have a much larger pSLC cache.
For anyone willing to spend a bit more, I'd recommend the Crucial MX500. It's vastly superior and presently my top pick for SATA drives.

I'm looking at getting a SATA SDD for an older iMac I 'inherited' and was looking at the Crucial MX500 and the Samsung 870 EVO. I think they were pretty evenly matched, except the Samsung had a higher TBW value, which I guess is a measure of longevity?
Do you have any insights into the MX500 vs. 870 EVO?
TIA!

On paper, the Samsung 870 EVO is probably slightly superior but most people would never notice a difference. The reason I don't recommend the 870 EVO is because it's had widespread issues with early failures and data loss. The issue may or may not have been fixed. Of what few premium SATA SSDs remain, the Crucial MX500 seems to have fewer reports of serious issues. It also tends to be on the cheaper side. That's why I currently favor it.
