Etern4l Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Hello, after a brief research the answer seems to be clearly FireCuda 530, nothing else comes close to 2500 TBW for 2TB. Performs reasonably well too. Any experiences with this SSD, or perhaps some alternatives I missed? How is the real-life reliability?

Performs reasonably well too. Any experiences with this SSD, or perhaps some alternatives I missed? How is the real-life reliability? I bought a Corsair M600 Pro XT Hydro. They have 3,000 TB write life I think? It’ll be going in the new 13900KF build. While mine is the watercooled model and kinda silly, the air cooled model runs very cool too. Much cooler than the prior generation. The Corsair M600 Pro XT 2TB is only $219.99 USD. I did not do a tremendous amount of research based on the endurance of these SSD’s or other models. And that’s because I have (2) Intel M.2 660P’s in a Raid 0 configuration and they have lasted absolutely for freaking ever! I’ve had them over 2 years now, and both still at 97%. The thing is, I’m always uninstalling massively huge games and re-installing the same games or even new games on a daily basis and vice versa rinse repeat. They only have a 100 TBW rating which is like that’s it?? I can’t kill them it’s (2) little 512GB Intel 660P M.2’s in raid 0 providing a total of 1TB of storage. They both work wonderfully to this day. I would not over think TBW too much though. I will hammer an M.2 SSD really hard. Far worse than most, always reinstalling Windows probably 6+ times per year, and then constantly filling my storage and removing games to reinstall other games lol. 1 13900KF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etern4l Posted October 20, 2022 Author Share Posted October 20, 2022 Strong option, many thanks. TBW is actually 1400 for the 2TB model vs 2.5k for the Firecuda but that's decent. The reason I'm looking for high TBW is that the usage will be fairly heavy, might easily run into tens of TB per month so looking for something with a bit of headroom. I actually have a 2TB Corsair drive, has been good for me but mostly used as storage. Will def read some reviews on this.

The crazy thing about the Corsair Mp600 is that all the models come with some sort of heatsink (which seems permanent), as if they didn't know that high-end boards have heatsinks built in.

Etern4l Posted November 4, 2022 Author Share Posted November 4, 2022 Yeah, I think one needs a specific use case to start worrying about TBW, one such use case would be reinstalling a gigantic Steam collection every week for some reason 😉 Heavy swapping can also deal a blow here, but a) few people push their systems that far b) the solution is to get more RAM. I went with a Firecuda 530 based on the leading max TBW and pricing/availability, thanks everyone for their feedback. 1 "We're rushing towards a cliff, but the closer we get, the more scenic the views are." -- Max Tegmark AI: Major Emerging Existential Threat To Humanity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mechanical hard drives do not have limited write endurance. One way you can check for how much lifetime you've written to your SSD is to run Crystal Disk Info and see what it says, I think it's going to be far less than you're imagining. If one really needs high write endurance then enterprise level drives are really the only solution, but they are typically older and slower. My old HGST 400GB (yes small) SAS SLC drives can write 35PB - these are what I use for caching or frequently written data. They only have read/write speeds in the 500mb/s range but in RAID0 that's fast enough to saturate 10GB/s network speeds.
