Consumer Crucial/Micron drives used to have enough capacitors on board to, at least in my understanding, never corrupt data on power loss (not sure if they flushed the cache, but I think they at least tried and guaranteed sectors wouldn't become unreadable/corrupted due to being partially written). They dropped this in later models, though, but I think they still claim they can guarantee non corruption/partial writes?
I stopped trusting Crucial when they released the P1 though. That QLC drive is terrible on every metric. Performance falls off a steep cliff once you do any writes at all, and often never quite recovers. Tail latencies are in the 1 second range, which is insane for an SSD.
