All of these are using BiCS8 QLC NAND,
alright I’ve read enough, no thanks I’ll pass
I have a feeling will be seeing QLC more and more in the consumer space.
I don’t think consumers can even buy MLC SSDs anymore now that Samsung has switched its Pro SSD line to TLC.
god damn I didn’t realize that Samsung swapped
although tbf I’ve been buying more TeamGroups and Corsair M.2s when they go on sale as they typically have both TLC and DRAM cache
I don’t think consumers can even buy MLC SSDs anymore now that Samsung has switched its Pro SSD line to TLC.
yeaa, I’d imagine you gotta pay for enterprise components from willing retailers and OEMs or on the second-hand market
Never touching another WD product with a ten foot pole.
How so?
Yeah, was gonna say. Waiting for Samsung or SanDisk to do it. WD is quite the gamble.
WD owns SanDisk and has for some time.
They own sandisk and the sandisk fiasco is what I’m partly referring to. SanDisk is terrible.
Oh damn, totally missed all this going down. Been reading up on a bit now, such a shame. :/
Why I have not heard of them being a risky company to buy from, or am I misinformed?
Yeah same. I have plenty of WD Black HDDs and SSD’s and never once had issues with any of them. Am I out of the loop?
For HDDs, they seem to have a better reputation than Seagate. That being said, I usually buy their Gold “enterprise class” HDD drives.
