QUOTE(xxboxx @ Nov 1 2020, 08:44 AM) SLC cache is not DRAM. SLC cache is to help give max speed write, up till the cache is full. thanks for the all info on A55, so it is safe to say that A55 is better than the kingston A400 480GB?Example of SSD writing at max speed due to SLC cache and then the speed slow down once cache is full.  https://www.anandtech.com/show/8520/sandisk...40gb-ssd-review According to this Google spreadsheet SSD list it doesn't have DRAM, but this A55 256GB review show there's NANYA's DRAM module.

If you got M.2 NVME slot then it's better to go for that instead of SATA. |

QUOTE(xxboxx @ Nov 1 2020, 07:42 PM) Better just stick with Crucial the only problem with mx500 is The only caveat to that recommendation is that power efficiency has taken a step backwards with the MX500 from https://www.anandtech.com/show/12263/the-cr...-500gb-review/9 |

QUOTE(xxboxx @ Nov 2 2020, 11:10 AM) Small different only in real life usage, unless most of the time you always left the laptop idle without feeding it power. Evo is more expensive by rm100 for 500gbI didn't check local Samsung Evo price. If just difference around RM30 then Evo does give more value for money. |

QUOTE(bristlebb @ Nov 16 2020, 06:06 PM) lately i bought a unit of MX500 500GB SATA SSD, while waiting for it to reach my place i realize the seller stated on their page they only provide 3 years limited warranty, whereas other local sellers are giving 5 years warranty, heck i even found the pictures of the ssd box on the internet, it says limited 5 year warranty at the back. I've also bought one since 1111 until now yet to get, https://www.lazada.com.my/products/crucial-...54065.html?mp=1today i asked the seller, and they say 3 years warranty only. can seller refuse to honor the full warranty period? or the warranty itself should be honored by Crucial instead of seller?  |

QUOTE(andrekua2 @ Dec 3 2020, 10:18 PM) You should buy during 1111. HOw you managed to pay only rm237 when the price is rm292? Bought a couple ssd during last few weeks. 500gb evo 860 RM237 250gb evo 860 RM 142 240gb A400 for office slow pc I used to run a 120gb Transcend ssd370 which also had dram but somehow the Evo860 is just that much faster. Can feel it's zippyness. I always thought Samsung SSD is over rated... Btw, it's an old i5 3470 pc... No nvme. |

QUOTE(andrekua2 @ Dec 5 2020, 11:58 AM) Well, lazada was kind enough to release 50 off 250 voucher in the final hours of 11.11 plus some other free shipping and small amount voucher from seller I guess. and i thought my steal on crucial mx500, 500gb for rm220 was good!This is nothing compared to my other steal. Bought 2 Galaxy Tab S6 for less than 3.5k on 11.11 |
