Shouldn't this link to https://www.tomshardware.com/news/wd-blue-sn550-ssd-performance-cut-in-half-slc-runs-out (and maybe the original review linked to from here needs to an UPDATE: on it, since it still says e.g. TLC)?

Don't think it should actually change most folks' decision -- sustained write rate over many GBs isn't such a big deal for most users, and I bet most of those that that do care about it aren't shopping for bargain SSDs -- but supporting the recommendation with a review of what we now know isn't quite the same device doesn't look great. (I bet these affiliate-link posts aren't really treated like editorial content, but it all looks the same on the site; something like this probably rates a mention!)
