    Does it have dram?

    • +2

      Google is telling me 1GB of dram for every TB of storage (so 2GB cache here)

    • +1

      Yes.

  • Would you really see much of a difference in real world performance over say a Gen 4 NVMe SSD?. If say it's just for the boot drive.

    • +10

      Yes, you would find it gets hotter.

      • In that case then wouldn't this drive without a heatsink kind of severely overheat?. I hope that no one is silly enough to use this without a heatsink cooling it.

        • +1

          its also probably hard to find a 'decent' board that you would want to use that has a gen5 slot that doesnt have a heatsink for said slot

          • @warclone: its also probably hard to find a laptop with enough space for a decent ssd radiator.

      860 Evo SATA = 12.7s
      SN770 PCIe 4 DRAMless = 12s
      Top of the line PCIe 5 = 11.2s

      • LOL

    • In my opinion, high IOPS, high random write speeds, and sustained speeds are more useful in real world workloads.

    • No, not even close. This is a completely useless purchase for 99.99 % of the human population.

      It's vanity and nothing else.

  • +2

    Reddit reviews are scathing

  • +1

    Claimed read and write speeds are absurd these days

    • +2

      Because you need to look at iops and 4k instead of marketing numbers.

    • Yes, people might want to setup their own little Skynet, making 8K videos at home.

      PCIe gen 5 x4 SSDs released this year has even higher max sequential read / write figures

  • +3

    Need higher capacity/$ than higher speeds for ssds

  • The sata ssd has quietly gone

    • laptops have gotten slimmer and are now M.2, the market has changed, and for desktop lots of cheap mother boards now have 3 m.2 slots, SATA is now just king in the HDD market.
