The MP44L is a TLC gen 4 drive. It does have lower peak sequentials (5GB/s vs 7GB/s) but that is likely not going to be noticeable to most users.
If sustained speeds are faster on the MP44L, I would definitely go with that one.

You convinced me, now which is a better value MP33PRO, MP44L, MP44, or MP33PRO? Thank you. I am digging the Mp44L presently

I pulled the trigger on the 4 TB (mere $175) but then read the techpowerup review and I cancelled it. The post-SLC speed is ~160 MB/s... WTF. Worst of their tested bunch. Never getting swayed again by QLC drives even if their prices hit rock bottom.
https://www.techpowerup.com/revie...-tb/6.html
It's actually considerably worse. Check out the comments on that review. I was glad to see someone else noticed that the 160MB/s post-pSLC number didn't jive with the 167MB/s whole drive average. Turns out the post-pSLC performance is even worse than the review let on.

Quote from BabyTantrum :

Here are the rough sequential write speeds I saw:

pSLC - ~4.1GB/s

Direct-to-TLC (post-pSLC but NAND still has free blocks) - ~2.5GB/s

Folding (post-pSLC, NAND is full) - ~700MB/s

Whole drive average (from empty to full) - ~1.7GB/s

What do you think that means? Wink I call out everyone on here for that. Americans thinking the Chinese government cares about them. That is laughable.
Yes it's a Chinese copycat brand. It doesn't mean the Chinese copies the data

Given the level of spying the CCP does on Americans not laughable at all

Our USA government spies on you a lot more, but I guess that is ok with you as well. Let's let the people here testing this hardware comment on the device to show the real world tests. Thanks for your time. worship

Quote from Redflyer :
This is one of those brands where forums are filled with posts about failures after a few months. This is a cheap Chinese brand that has been caught in the past using harvested NAND chips and chips that didn't pass QC. Don't think I would trust them at all. Probably safer to stick with the usual high quality brands like Teamgroup, Crucial, Samsung, etc.
Source? I haven't heard that, though it wouldn't surprise me.

I'm wary of recommending gen 3 drives (like the MP33 Pro), though not because of their speed. With the MSI Spatium M482 deals seemingly over, the Team Group MP44L seems like one of the best values. The MP44 technically has higher peak speeds, but I don't think it's significant enough to justify the price difference. At that point, you may as well jump to the Samsung 990 EVO Plus. It's not necessarily faster (and may even be slower in some areas) but it's a more reputable brand.

TLDR: I'd pick the MP44L.

Thank you for admitting the CCP spies, 五毛. The CCP never admits this.

Our government spies you way more, we already went through this. China does not care about you, or your data. It's just not relevant. Stick the thread about performance of the device. I just had to call you out on anyone caring about what you or your family searches for or does online. Nobody cares. EEK!

But that MSI one is rated for 450TBW. I don't understand how this ORICO can have almost 3x the endurance compared to MSI but they're both supposedly QLC?
TBW numbers are there for warranty purposes. If the manufacturer has no intention of fulfilling warranty claims, they can fudge whatever TBW numbers they want.

Quote from teknower :
Yeah but for normal users isn't that drive much slower + pcie gen 3 vs 4? Otherwise I'd agree that team group is more reputable but seems like performance will be worse for normal applications.
For most normal users using this as an OS drive, sequential performance does not matter. Random access performance matters more, at which this is solidly middle of pack. QD1 random write and read are 362 MB/s and 91 MB/s respectively, not even enough to saturate SATA6. Of course, the QD1 number only tells part of the story but is a good indicator.

Intel Optane Xpoint drives have extremely low latency and high random access performance and are the fastest OS drives you can get. The older 900p models on PCI-E 3.0 can hit over 300 MB/s read and write while the newest P5800x are hitting close to 400 MB/s on both, still not saturating SATA6 but far faster in the read department than all other NVMe SSDs.

For reference, the Samsung 990 Pro with TLC and DRAM, one of the top tier SSDs, gets around 100 MB/s in QD1 random read (random write is 350+). You'll notice that the numbers are pretty similar to this Orico and is one of the reasons why it can be hard to tell a performance difference, especially on a fresh new install. It's under heavy workloads and when the drives fill up that the differences manifest.

Due to the above, unless you're constantly transferring large files, PCI-E version doesn't matter. The access speed of the controller matters a lot more.

Thanks again for acknowledging the CCP spies. And understand you believe the U.S. spies more - your pov. But the CCP spies.

I was commenting on reliability issues of this Chinese copycat brand vs Samsung or others

Its not based on a physical reality, TBW is just a warranty, like a cars mile warranty.

Toyota's is 36,000 miles, Hyundai's is 60,000 miles, doesn't mean the Hyundai is better obviously.
