Here's a review of the MP600 Elite[techpowerup.com]. It is a different drive but built with the same controller and NAND, can give an idea of the performance since there aren't reviews on this specific device.
Is there a way to use an m.2 drive externally? I only have 1 slot, but if could use one externally and retain the majority of speed I would be down to go that route.
Also, a PCI card slot adapter that takes a M.2 drive would work possibly better, if you have an empty pci slot. Also on Amazon[amazon.com].

Thank you for this, this is exactly what I meant. I am above average nerd and I truly didnt know if an m.2 adapter even existed.
I just gotta do research, the main computer it would be attached to is an old am4 board that is pci 3. As long as the math checks out and the m.2 using this adapter is faster than sata ssd's, im in. Thanks again for giving me something solid to go off from.
Good deal if you need an SSD at the moment. But just FYI, 1200 TBW. About 2.5 years of life. The better ssds have 2400 TBW.
1200TBW is not really a concern except for maybe the 1% of extreme users who are running RAID setups or video editing. You would have to delete and overwrite the entire 2tb contents of this drive over 600 times before it became a possible issue. Or let's say more realistically you write, on average, 150 gigs every day to the drive. Which already is pretty heavy average usage. That's 22 years before you might begin to run into problems.
I bought a couple 2TB Samsung 980 Pro PCIe 4.0 drives about 3 years ago now. And I use my PC both as a Plex media server (regularly downloading and seeding thousands of torrents) and for gaming installing 100GB+ games on the drives. Total write according to Samsung Magician over those 3 years? 25TB and 5TB.
Really shouldn't be worried about exceeding 1200TB TBW with average use. For 99% of users the drive will be obsolete long before you run into issues.

My experience with these are less than desireable. Windows doesn't seem too happy about booting to the pcie slot... "Windows encountered an error and needs to reboot" LOOP
Nice work! I must have been looking at 4TB as a comparison. Totally right. Kudos!
There used to be available on market the first generation of PCIE 4.0 NVME that has very high TBW. For ex, 2TB can reach 3600TBW, which includes ST Firecuda 520 and https://www.aorus.com/components/...cification and Inland Performance: https://www.microcenter.com/produ...ternal-ssd. This is only provided by Toshiba NAND and Phison Controller combination and is suitable for write cache for disk array.

The first generation of PCIE4.0 NVME has good TBW like 1800 TBW for 1TB. I had brought MSI 470 model for this reason at $90.

Seems like 1200TBW for 2TB is standard.

Kinda new, and people are more likely to review a bad experience, than a good one. 🤷 ♂️
You rewrite your drives 240 times a year? Don't you ever heard of worm?
Reading don't count on ssd. It is preferred. You can hide your folder if you wish. Or encrypt it. You don't have to delete them every 1 to 2 days.
