Sustained write performance is a problem with most TLC drives and the SP550 just can't shake the TLC blues.
According to our tests, the Samsung SM951 (NVMe) is the fastest SSD available. It is even faster than the 950 Pro, while it is a lot cheaper as well. Bear in mind that you miss out on official Samsung support in the form of warranty, Magician and firmware...

Because of the higher price per gigabyte a 120 GB SSD is not a good choice for most people. However, under certain circumstances you can save some money by buying one of these. For example in a computer for grandpa and grandma extra storage capacity mig...

When cost is more important than sustained performance the ADATA SP550 is a solid option in 120GB and 240GB capacity sizes. The 480GB model is still very low cost but its price is too close to the Samsung 850 EVO that is a better drive overall and has a...

ADATA Premier SP550 240GB is the second TLC drive (after OCZ Trion 100 240GB) that I've tested and it made a very good impression. The performance is strong, exactly as the manufacturer claims while the price is simply killer. It is the cheapest 240GB TLC...
