SSD Disk Comparison: TLC vs MLC - Crucial MX300, Goodram Iridium, ADATA SU800 & SU900 (250GB)

Hello.
I intend to buy a ssd disk about 250gb on a stationary system. I have read about different types of memory and everyone recommends the MLC standard, for example, 3D NAND TLC. It's about endurance, etc. I've tried to buy a Cruciala MX300, but it's just the TLC type compared to the MX200 or Goodrama iridium where MLC is. For example, ADATA Su800 on 3D Nand TLC is much cheaper than the Su900 where MLC is.

I personally choose MLC, I prefer to pay extra.
But you know (or at least you should know) what you expect from the durability of the data.

NAND TLC -> 3D NAND TLC -> NAND MLC -> 3D NAND MLC
NAND TLC the worst - do not take it at all. 3D NAND MLC the best, SU900 is on them.

In addition to durability, among others therefore, not many people who know something about SSD recommend 3D NAND TLC. With the SU800, it's analogous - the performance drops strongly when full, and the SSD can be filled easily. Is this a big problem? Some think that yes, others do not. Eventually, SSD will be faster than HDD. But if the price difference between the MLC and 3D NAND TLC disc is small, then MLC is better. With MLC, there is no such problem. I bought GoodRam Iridium Pro and I'm happy.

But it is so - that it is difficult to "kill" memory cells with average use. For example, I bought a 128 GB MLC disc, and then the disks on the TLC memory did not even occur any more - about a supposedly guaranteed number of 10,000 write cycles somewhere like 5 years ago - and I have saved it so far 50 times with such average use as a system disk , download folder, etc. I set on a disk. And the disk we already say morally aged is already a little small and let's say that nothing has worn out.

And that's why manufacturers are well aware of such usage statistics - they now use generally cheaper / it comes to this cheaper / TLC memory about the planned number of cycles up to 1000 - but they know that it is unplayable and profits have more ...

I completely omit the issue of disks on the SLC memory because it is a different segment of the market

How did you use it? How much disk percentage do you have? check it out

I have Adate ASP900, semsunga evo 850 once kingston, I do not remember the model but on TLC, there is sql base there, after 2 years it has 96% life.

I suggest you look at the article:

And I know one thing, I never keep valid copies on SSDs.

The copy should not primarily be stored on 1 disk, regardless of its design

It's better to use SLC drives for such applications - do you associate what is it ???

Not only on one disk, but not only in one location.

It is a small database that I backup to another disk 2 times a day and once in a while in the cloud. SLC - too expensive for this application. I know what SLC is:)

The GOODRAM Iridium PRO is the most proven
+ MLC bones
+ 5 years warranty
+ Polish company

I bought GoodRam Iridium PRO some time ago and I'm happy. Previously, I had a Samsung 840 EVO 128GB. There was a lack of space, so I decided to invest in a larger one, and as SSD knows, the more free space, the longer it will live.
