    Maxxify reacted to Misgar's post in the thread [SOLVED] KTWOK Pluto 1TB SATA SSD not recognised, but my old SSD works in same spot with the same cables ? with Like.

    This looks to be a 512GB Micron 2400. How fast are you downloading? This drive uses QLC and at this capacity (which is low) the cache is...

    There are 80Gbps TBT5 enclosures that pass x4 PCIe 4.0 lanes, that's about the extent of it. These will take Gen5 drives but they will...

    682.4 MB/s per watt. This is over 50% more efficient than the 2TB Gold P31, if that puts things into perspective.

    Maxxify replied to the thread Review Samsung 990 EVO Plus SSD review: The real EVO drive is here.

    Maxxify reacted to JarredWaltonGPU's post in the thread Review Samsung 990 EVO Plus SSD review: The real EVO drive is here with Like.

    With this V8 V-NAND, Samsung was able to pack 2TB of TLC into a single package with 16 dies. So that's basically ~683GiB of raw NAND...

    Maxxify replied to the thread Review Samsung 990 EVO Plus SSD review: The real EVO drive is here.

    We did have x2 M.2 slots in the past on some boards and quite a few laptops. I've also seen x1/x1/x1/x1 bifurcation for SSDs over the...

    Maxxify replied to the thread Review Samsung 990 EVO Plus SSD review: The real EVO drive is here.

    We've had 1.33Tb QLC dies for a while now, technically, which would be up to 2.66TiB per package, but it's not really used that way...

    Maxxify replied to the thread [SOLVED] Samsung 850 EVO SSD showing up as SCSI.

    External enclosures over USB will show as SCSI; they use the UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol).

    Maxxify replied to the thread Review WD Black SN850X 8TB SSD review: The no-compromise 8TB champion.

    Agreed. WD has or will have the 8TB SN850P available for the PS5 and this would work there, too. Some people want that much space and...

    Volatile pricing. Sometimes that does happen. Right now heatsink one is $149.99 on Newegg, without heatsink is $144.99 (w/promo).
