New Review: Reviewer: TechPowerUp/Tom's Hardware SSD: Seagate Firecuda 540 2TB Configs: Phison E26 Micron B58R TLC (1/2TB) Review link: https://www.techpowerup.com/review/seagate-firecuda-540-2-tb/ https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/seagate-firecuda-540-ssd-review Thoughts: I mean it's fine but controller kinda mid + expensive so just get Mars 980 or SN8100 tbh.
New Review: Reviewer: TechPowerUp/Tom's Hardware SSD: Teamgroup MP44Q 2TB Configs: Maxio MAP1602 YTMC X3-6070 QLC (1/2/4TB) Review link: https://www.techpowerup.com/review/team-group-mp44q-2-tb/ https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/ssds/teamgroup-mp44q-2tb-ssd-review Thoughts: Not bad I guess. Wonder how long it'll take before it gets swapped.
New Swap: SSD: Teamgroup MP44L 512GB Nand Type: Unknown Current Configs: Too many to count (see TPU, may not be up-to-date) Alternative List of current Controller/Nand Variations (Courtesy of AutoConditionata): TeamGroup MP44L controllers: 1. Phison E21T 2. MaxioTech MAP1602A 3. Phison E27T 4. Realtek RTS5772DL 5. Innogrit IG5220 (unknown NAND) 6. Tenafe TC2200 (unknown NAND) TeamGroup MP44L NAND flash: 1. Micron 176-layer TLC 2. YMTC 128-layer TLC (CDT1B) 3. YMTC 128-layer TLC (CDT2A) 4. Kioxia 162-layer TLC 5. Micron 232-layer TLC 6. Kioxia 112-layer TLC 7. Micron 96-layer TLC 8. Intel 144-layer QLC (likely) 9. Unknown (TC2200/IG5220) Note: There's a leaked evaluation sample from unknown SSD brand with RTS5772DL at 5 GB/s using SK Hynix 232-layer TLC that has matching firmware with a MP44L sample. New Config: TenaFe TC2200 Unknown Nand (512 GB) Thoughts: Oh Great. More Swaps. We do not know what the nand is, so that's fun. Just don't buy this drive. Sourc...

New Swap: SSD: Kingspec XF 512GB, 1/2TB New config: TenaFe TC2200 YTMC CDT1B TLC (512GB, 1/2TB) Thoughts: NOT a swap but confirmed nand, so there's that. Source: HGCC11BH4 Nand Code, Matched with Fanxiang S660
New Swap: SSD: Lexar Thor Pro Nand type: QLC Current Configs: Maxio MAP1602 YTMC X3-6070 QLC (1/2TB) Innogrit IG5236 (dramless) Intel N38A QLC (1/2TB) New Config: Innogrit IG5236 (dramless) Intel N38A QLC (1/2TB) Thoughts: Yeah this is a big, big downgrade. Do NOT buy or reccomend the drive. Source: Youtube/Review
