Nice review! Love to see more QLC NAND on the market haha.

Interesting how QLC performs with smaller capacities. The 1TB just killed it in Storage Consistency.

More like the virtual SLC cache is changing things around. For general consumer workloads, I highly doubt you will notice a difference, considering most of the workload is just booting Windows and loading Word or something.

Thanks guys!

Yeah SLC caching is just smaller on smaller drives haha.

Great Review Aaron! Probably not buying the SSD but Super Smash Bros was on my List.

I think though the p1 is still meant for faster consumer workloads, the bx500 is definitely targeted for budget builds.
