Type of NAND. SLC, MLC, TLC, and QLC. Referring to the bits per cell. The less bits per cell the higher the TBW endurance rating, but also the more expensive. Most users won't ever reach the TBW. TLC and QLC are commonly found in consumer SSDs, while SLC and MLC is found in enterprise SSDs.
DRAM cache. This helps sustain R/W operations for large file transfers. Tom's Hardware has charts on SSD review articles showing the tapering off on SSDs without DRAM.
Only way I would pay a premium for a SSD with DRAM and better NAND is if I were using it in a NAS and transferring large files constantly. Even the boot times between the fastest and slowest NVME SSDs is within 3 seconds.
I'm going to buy this SSD for a Steam Deck.
Also, QLC as this is the "CORE" edition instead of the MP600 Mini non-"Core" which uses TLC. both are without DRAM.

Genuine question here, why? I'm looking to upgrade my surface Pro 9. I am a real estate appraiser and I plan to move all my work software / data to the surface pro 9 and off my gaming laptop. I am just curious WHY the WD Black is better, and for my non-gaming needs, is it worth the premium?
