Why do SMB transfer speeds fall off a cliff after a few minutes?
I have an array of 6x4tb and 6x2tb sata SSDs in my storage server. I can copy at full speed for 50GB files on both arrays, but I think you are on the right track here. The CS900 is a DRAMless SSD, and there are reports that the 2tb and 4tb versions have massive speed drops once the drive hits 50% fu

Something is eating up my storage and I don’t know what
open up Disk Cleanup and then delete the old Windows updates which would also clear up any files that is not needed and also you would have files in your downloads folder as well. It would be wise as well to get something like the PNY CS900 500GB SSD drive for about $50 for your games and keep your

8X PNY 250GB CS900 SSDs in raidz3 am I dumb?
So, the PNY CS900 is a very low end laptop Sata SSD and not suitable for anything other then a low end workstation or a low end laptop. I would not use them for anything like ZFS or hosting VM disks. they are DRAM-Less and rely on the controller direct IO access to NAND no PLP, so they do not cache

Good SATA SSDs right now?
The CS900 is a DRAM-less SSD. Aka, it has no Cache. Which implies a few things: Random write performance will be worse than other SSD's (you can ignore this if you only want to save videos to it and not use it as a game drive or OS drive tbh) When the SLC Cache is used up, it will get substantially

Best bang for buck sub $600 no-GPU build
I am referring to the large amounts of complaints of overheating and failures in reviews. Also complaints that once the cache is saturated it hits 250mb/s speeds for longer loads. Apparently they also did bait and switch QLC in while advertising TLC. it has 8% 1 star reviews on amazon vs the micron/

HELLO! MY PS4 PROS HDD FAILED SO IF I HARD RESET IT AND INSTALL ALL THE GAMES AGAIN AND PLAY , WILL IT FAIL AGAIN?
That’s why I said to get a drive like the Samsung 870 evo better drive for the PS4, you can get away with the PNY CS900 in Xbox consoles the Xbox is doesn’t degrade them like the PS4 does you really want the built in cache and garbage cleanup. I have SSDs in ALL my consoles just trying to help sprea

What's the fastest HDD read write speed for PlayStation 3? Which Rpm is best and most reliable?
Hi, i bought PNY cs900 1tt ssd, it worked maybe 2 months every day using. Not sure what was that problem, but ssd died. Windows can format it, but after format it dies again. Maybe TRIM? Any ideas?

What SSD should I get for my PS3 FAT ?
I've used crucial mx500, crucial bx500, pny cs900 and sandisk ssd plus in ps2, ps3, ps4 and xbox 360 and they have all been great and still going strong after a few years. Just get whichever is cheaper and you'll be fine.
