970 PRO

i boot from Samsung 970 pro SSD it still has 97% life after 2+ years i did nothing special in terms of logs etc these articles came from a set of scaremongering reddit and forum posts from mainly one individual also people confuse their samsung drive issues with proxmox issues (there was a particula

Google sounds a bit off. An ssd like the samsung 970 pro that uses MLC nand has a tbw rating of 600 for a 512gb drive. So about 1170 full drive cycles. The 980 pro uses TLC nand and that has a tbw rating of 300 for the 512gb. Thats about 585 full drive cycles. Ssds use higher quality nands than memo

If you do buy used, I only recommend buying from eBay under these conditions: Seller has a high rating, 100% positive Seller has a lot of ratings, generally safe number imo is 100+. Be sure to look over their reviews under the "As Seller" tab. Make sure the item has eBay guarantee on it When you rec

The lack of RAM shouldn’t be an issue for me, am currently running 64GB of DDR5-6000 M/T, CL 30, on an ASRock 670E Steel Legend with Ryzen 7 9700X & still using my 512GB Samsung 970 PRO NVMe SSD, even though I have a 1TB Samsung 9100 PRO waiting. Didn’t change the SSD because it still has over 80% l

Yes, it seems today, the minimal optimal amount of RAM is 32GB, even the for DDR5 type, for gaming & other intensive computing tasks. At the same time, pricing has been insane, I was one of those who bought both 32 & 64GB 6000 M/T kits of the latest when prices dropped, well before Micron exited the

My main PC can run up to 192GB (I believe), but it’s an AM5 MB (X670E) and running 64GB of RAM in a 32GB x2 configuration (recommended by AMD to achieve DDR5-6000 M/T). If not mistaken, when all four slots are populated, it can’t run at that speed. But it more than meets my needs & fortunately I pur

Have been using Samsung SSD’s since the 840 EVO & PRO without issue, zero failures. Am still using my 970 PRO NVMe on my AM5 system, owned for 4+ years & still 85% lifespan left, although have a 9100 PRO waiting in the wings, sealed for over 2 years now.

I mean, let's take a simple example. The latest and greatest Samsung 9100 Pro 1 TB has TBW of 600, while the 970 Pro 1 TB has TBW of 1200. The sustained write speed for the 9100 Pro is 1.8 GB/s while the 970 Pro will maintain its rated write speed of 2.7 GB/s indefinitely. The max random speed of th

🤦... Tell me you don't know SSD's without telling me... 🙄 Consumer SLC SSD's literally DO NOT EXIST, and haven't for around a DECADE AND A HALF!!! (Since Samsung's 470 Series SATA SSD's from literally 2010!!!...) And even consumer MLC SSD's haven't existed for nearly a decade now too! (The Samsung 9

Puxa, 1200 TB é muito até. Não sabia que tinha SSD pra consumidor com TBW tão alto. Pior que verifiquei e o meu é 1200 TB também (Samsung 970 Pro)
