Summary DRAM-less with TLC flash; writes can slow noticeably once its small cache fills. Uses the same TLC flash as the SN570 at every capacity, unlike the later SN5000 4TB and SN5100, which use QLC. TLC flash at 500GB to 2TB, but the 4TB uses QLC. Switches to QLC flash at every capacity; it slows more than the TLC models during very long writes.
