Good point about DRAM-less NVMe >v1.2 drives, but DRAM-less SSD are still garbage if they do not support HMB or have SATA interface.

This type of convo reminds me of how some PC's get completely crapped on but end up doing well for most regular people.

I have nothing against Kingston as a brand. I have bought a lot of their stuff starting from their first generation V series SSDs.
But we are comparing a dramless SSD with a dram SSD.

"The recent change suggests that PNY might have secretly switched out some of the drive's core components for lesser quality parts." - so it seems they dont know for sure.
I am happy with this...

This is one of those least understood things.
PNY reduced the TBW from its astronomically high TBW earlier (I got it in the $65 deal last year which still is the cheapest for a 1TB nvme). But this...

HMB is part of the nvme protocol so generic nvme drivers in the host handle these requests for the SSD controller. Which also means, it is available when used in an external enclosure with USB only...

How does a drive have HMB? To be honest, sounds like something that would have to be done in software and supported by the operating system.
If I stick this in a usb enclosure wont HMB severely...

That's really low endurance for a 1TB drive. Usually it's 600TBW for a TLC drive.

Ryzen 5600X on a Gigabyte B550M AORUS Pro-P motherboard. So no, not an old system. You just dont notice a difference. Believe it or not.
