Summary MLC flash without a write cache, so its write speed holds steady through long copies. TLC flash keeps writes much faster than the 860 QVO and 870 QVO once the cache fills. Samsung's first QLC drive; writes slow sharply once the cache fills, most on the 1TB. Successor to the 860 QVO with newer QLC flash; writes still slow sharply once the cache fills, most on the 1TB. Successor to the 860 EVO with newer TLC flash; small random reads are quicker, though sequential speeds are similar.
