Seems to be a very good price for 2TB m.2 NVME SSD with TLC.
It has comparable read/write speed to WD SN550 series SSD, but at lower price.
Scored good in a review as well.

What does TLC mean on this drive?
https://www.mydigitaldiscount.com/everything-you-need-to-kno…
TLC (Triple Level Cell)
Storing 3 bits per cell, TLC flash is the cheapest form of flash to manufacture. The biggest disadvantage to this type of flash is that it is only suitable for consumer usage, and would not be able to meet the standards for industrial use. Read/write life cycles are considerably shorter at 3,000 to 5,000 cycles per cell.
Pros:
Cheapest to manufacture which in turn leads to cheaper to market SSDs.
Cons:
Cells will survive considerably less read/write cycles compared to MLC NAND. This means that TLC flash is good for consumer use only.
Recommended for:
Everyday consumer use, web/email machines, netbooks, and tablets.
Not bad for a 2TB Storage.
Buy this and get a free Pho Bowl?
Bit late for Christmas!

oh 3% paypal surcharge :(
Although it's DRAM-less, this is the cheapest I've seen a 2TB TLC NVMe drive. Great find!
