CT1000P3PSSD8 vs MTFDDAK1T9TGA
Crucial CT1000P3PSSD8 (1TB) versus Micron MTFDDAK1T9TGA (1.92TB)
Verdict
For a NAS cache or any write-heavy pool, the MTFDDAK1T9TGA is the safer pick - the CT1000P3PSSD8 uses QLC NAND, which wears out faster and slows down badly under sustained writes. Only consider the CT1000P3PSSD8 for light, read-mostly storage.
