CT1000P3PSSD8 vs CT1000T500SSD8
SSD head-to-head - specs, value and live price side by side.
Verdict
For a NAS cache or write-heavy pool, the CT1000T500SSD8 is the safer pick - the CT1000P3PSSD8 uses QLC NAND, which wears out faster and slows badly under sustained writes (light, read-mostly use only).
