Overview
Cheap-per-gigabyte QLC for read-heavy libraries, 560/530 MB/s at the SATA ceiling with 720 TBW. Sustained writes fall off once the cache fills, so this is media and archive storage, not a working drive. Keep anything you rewrite often somewhere else.

- Owen F.Jul 19, 2025Fine, but mind the QLC limits
Works as advertised but do not put write-heavy work on it. Once the cache fills, sustained writes crawl. For an archive drive it is okay.
- Rosa K.Mar 30, 2025Great for a game and media drive
720 TBW is enough for how I use it. Big sequential writes slow down but reads stay quick. Cheap per gig.
- Hedy V.Jan 25, 2025Value bulk storage
Bought it knowing it is QLC. For my read-mostly game installs it is perfectly adequate and the price was right.
- Ted M.Sep 27, 2024Cheap capacity for read-heavy stuff
QLC so I keep it for my media library, not scratch work. Write speed falls off after the SLC cache but for storing files it is fine.
