The main disadvantage of QLC is memory, therefore, in order to maintain optimal performance, you have to leave a lot of space, preferably more than half - ideally. And the larger the volume, the better. Therefore, you can take a 2 TB model. After the cache fills up, the speed drops to 40 MB sec, which is two or more times slower than any modern flash drive or SD card. Therefore, I would not take it under the system. Well, personally, my problems, I sin on the BIOS of the Z170 MSI Gaming M3 motherboard. After installing the hard drive into the system, everything started to connect, Rainbov SIx starts up 5 times, although it works fine from the hard drive, and in general the whole system began to lag, reinstalling partially eliminated the problem. The motherboard does not see the disk as a system disk, and most likely does not support launching from it, although compatibility is declared in the specifications, most likely it is not complete due to the age of the MB. If the mother is not new - think about it. The difference in launching games between this SSD and the 5-year-old 840evo is completely invisible to the eye, although the figures are 3 times. However, even with any more expensive PCIex, the tactile difference is small. The main advantage is the price. Here it is really difficult to find fault, since it is even cheaper than SATA analogues. Therefore, for offline toys, etc., if not the main disk, it will do for itself. Under the system and intensive work - it's better to take something on 3DNand, even sata.
