Quote from Hat-Trick :
Absolutely NO on getting Gen3. That would be a mistake.Here's my take...it's more about price than performance, correct? I don't think there are many 4TB SSD's less than $190, so although this one is more performance than your enclosure can handle, enclosures are cheap and it's cheaper to get a faster one down the road (or even now, as 20Gbps enclosures are $23) than to be disappointed later when you wish you got a faster one.So, get this now, get whatever enclosure you want and be happy. Smilie
If you can get a gen 3 nvme that's cheaper than 4TB@190 then go for it. Enclosure speed is likely slower than your gen 3 speed. If you can't then yes, it makes sense to have more future proofing ssd. the wrinkle here is you are most likely going to be bottlenecked at the enclosure's protocol speed.

There are alot of use cases and valid points when looking at these drives but here's my take away....if you're planning on keeping these for 5+ years then why gimp yourself with below average performance from the start? Spend another fifty bucks or so and get top tier. Even if you're on a budget just save alittle more and get something better. I would never touch a nvme without dram cache. Yes it really does make that much of a difference. Just fill the drive up and you'll see what im saying.

Either you have a bad drive or another issue. Even SATA SSDs don't have a 5 second delay on showing your desktop after a boot.

Will this be good on a gaming laptop? The storage space is nice but is the speed a bit on the slower side?
This would be god like for gaming storage, we don't play enough games to fill up 4TB 🤣.

I only only play MOBA games. (League of Legends, Heroes of the Storm)

No, not really. Some people see the item + price in the headline and think, oh, that's cheap (ie 4TB Crucial for $190+). Thumbs up, then goes off to buy it.

Meanwhile, others do a little more digging, asking questions or answering them.


I suspect that's how most cars are bought too.

Oh look, a Jeep is on sale for $3k off. (inside discussion: ''that Jeep has a notorious breakdown rate!)

I agree, 4TB is good for us consumers, prosumers tend to adhere to better specs and look elsewhere.

You will see write performance degradation over time due to it being a QLC.
The Crucial P3 Plus 4TB SSD uses QLC (quad-level cell) NAND flash memory, which stores 4 bits per cell. According to Crucial support, this drive utilizes QLC NAND chips.

It might be better to go with HP deal for 5 bucks more since that one is TLC with dram.

The HP is shipping with newer firmware 3.A.J.CR so the previous issues of innogrit controller isn't likely to occur. But I would advise not using them as boot OS. Here is specs for this drive: https://www.techpowerup.com/ssd-s...4-tb.d1506
