SLC (Single-Level Cell): This is the premium, Rolls Royce of storage. It's fast, durable, and expensive. You won't find this in most consumer products because it's mostly used in high-end, industrial stuff. Super rare these days unless you're balling.
MLC (Multi-Level Cell): This one's still solid. It stores two bits per cell, so it's slower and cheaper than SLC but still a solid option for performance. Though, like the homie said, you probably won't see this much anymore.
TLC (Triple-Level Cell): This is the go-to for most SSDs today. It strikes a balance—three bits per cell, not as fast as MLC or SLC, but it won't break the bank. It's decent for everyday use and what most people are running in their builds.
QLC (Quad-Level Cell): Now we're getting to the budget territory. Four bits per cell. Slower, cheaper, and wears out faster. Good if you're on a budget or just need storage without needing crazy speed.
pSLC (pseudo-SLC): This is where things get interesting. SSD manufacturers can take some of that TLC/QLC memory and make it act like SLC for short bursts of speed. It's like giving your SSD a turbo boost when you need it. Not true SLC, but it gets the job done for caching.
So, to sum it up: SLC > MLC > TLC > QLC in terms of performance and longevity. TLC is what most people are using, QLC is for the budget builds, and SLC is rare but elite. And yeah, most SSDs today will have some kind of pSLC cache to speed things up temporarily.

Should I just jump on this QLC?
The WD 2B TLC was 169 couple of weeks ago..
This is not correct. SLC is the best, then MLC, then TLC, and QLC is the worst. There are no consumer SLC or MLC drives on the market anymore. They're now all TLC or QLC. TLC is the better option. Also, don't confuse a pSLC cache with SLC NAND. Virtually all modern consumer drives have some form of pSLC cache.
However you need to check because x4 gen 4 not really needed. The other use cases as mentioned also 100 and may be able to take advantage of the greater speed.
