I’ve found a 4TB Transcend ssd220s for a decent price and I’ve been wondering how reliable is it (or Transcend’s ssds in general), but I can’t find much about it.
Any idea?

Edit: Got an answer.
“Originally was SM2258 (w/DRAM) + TLC, they may have moved to the SM2259 or equivalent now (they still list DRAM). Probably newer TLC. Can’t rule out QLC (“3D NAND”) but the performance and TBW specs look pretty good (0.3 DWPD is typical for TLC).”

    Well I got some info about it if anyone’s interested.
