Good luck finding a reasonably priced PCIe 3 drive with cache these days.
The only non-junk PCIe3 option that's even advertised here recently is the overpriced WD Red SN700.
Other than that it's just lemons and more power-hungry PCIe 4-5.
I still have better operational cost-performance from 5 year old drives compared to anything on the market today.

- baobun 3y agoThat's WD Black SN770 - targeted towards gamers. WD Red SN700 is prosumer/SMB NAS range. Lower performance and >2x the price.
- justinclift 3y agoThanks. I tend to avoid WD so didn't know they were different. :)
