No, 3D NAND helped a lot for durability.
- MichaelZuo 4y ago3D QLC NAND, which is what all cheap consumer SSDs are transitioning to, is pretty bad, like 1/10th the durability of common 3D TLC NAND from 3 years ago. And 1/100th the durability of even non 3d MLC NAND from 2014. Enterprise class 3D TLC NAND is relatively close to enterprise class non 3D MLC NAND, the gap is bigger for consumer drives. But I think as of 2022 only Apple still sells consumer desktops/laptops with entirely TLC NAND. Everyone else is racing to the bottom for their consumer stuff.
