Let the real SSD deals begin
This SN5000 4TB is one of the first to use the new Kioxia BiCS6 162L QLC NAND that is twice as fast as the Micron 176L QLC in the Crucial P3/P3 Plus
Read Tom's review here

Typical for a WD Blue SSD, the controller is well optimised and real world performance, efficiency, power consumption and temperatures are good
Single sided PCB suitable for laptops
PS5 compatible and as you can see from Tom's test it keeps up with all other drives and even writes slightly faster than the TLC Lexar NM790

  I have ordered heaps from Amazon US, Germany, UK and also Japan.
  However, packaging (same as with Amazon Australia) has been all over the place. Not sure I would trust them with something as delicate as this, where you may only find the issues in the long(er) run.

  Amazon reviews don't seem that great at 3.8/5?

      Why the difference between storage sizes though?

      I say this as I'm in the market for a 2TB, and the WD Blacks and 990 Pros are pretty comparably priced.

  Tested my PC with an SN810 in it. It was pretty impressive. Thought … hey both my AM5 motherboard's gen 4 M.2 sockets are off the CPU, why don't I set up a RAID 0 of a pair of SN810s to see how fast that is. ASUS had plenty of documentation on how to set up the RAID in the BIOS, then their documentation stopped. There's apparently a bunch of drivers required, but I guess they think as the motherboard manufacturer that's someone else's problem. It would have been amusing to see numbers like 13,200 MB/s, even if I then decided I didn't have any real need for that sort of speed.
