I dont think so,By storing more bit in every cell you decrease the NAND performance and endurance

to alot people, we dont care much about drive endurance
if i got option of 2TB TLC drive or 1TB MLC drive at nearly the same price, I will be happy to choose the TLC drive.
its not like during the infant period of SSD when the storage is around 60GB, of course that time endurance is a concern because you are going to erase and re-write your data alot.

here is my 3years old SSD stat and I use it as torrent transit drive biggrin.gif

clearing old gen stock perhaps..

A400 is known for short lifespan.. not that it matter much when it's this cheap..

among the reasons for the cheap pricing is because it uses Toshiba 2D Planar 15nm TLC NAND

the mid-to-high end SSDs usually use 64-layer 3D TLC NAND, V-NAND-based NVMe SSD, etc etc... wayyyy faster and longer lifespan..

it's still a good purchase for those of you who haven't tried any SSD before

A400 still significantly faster than your mechanical HDD

just monitor their health from time to time, like i said, they're known for short lifespan

What brand do you recommend then, for cheap but better quality SSD?

well, these two (Crucial & Samsung) aren't your entry-level brands like Kingston/Apacer.

each have their own market.

yup, unlike other platforms, Shopee will hold your money first until you confirm you receive the product and in good condition. That's what i like about shopee, refund process is easy too, if u buy product from china seller just send back to Shopee office they will process the refund
