unreliable nand sourcing. some of them mix the nand flash in different batches. is better to get from reputable brand that also produce nand themselves like samseng, crucial(micron) or wd/sandick/kioxia
ps: intel quit and sold to sk hynix, ongoing rebranding to solidigm, sk hynix no presence in malaysia market for now WD negatively is actually because them somehow downgrade their spec in their successors eg SN750 SE and SA510 being downgrade of SN750 og and blue 3d, but you can consider their older model as long as still got stock
For such operation, won't notice difference even between SATA and Gen 3 NVME SSD. Program still need to processed by the CPU when loading from SSD, current CPU can't processes GBs of data in a second. Noticeable difference is when copying data and game that use DirectStorage technology.
Skip to 10:18 for conclusion.
So strictly from a price point, might as well stick to SSD's.
FWIW, I did compare running a single 1 Tb Gen3 NVME SSD vs Raid 0 (2x 1Tb Gen3 NVME SSD) and didnt feel any noticeable difference starting/running apps except when maybe booting up.
