This article states that, “The MTBF rating for this SSD is 1.2 million hours with endurance up to 600TB.” Is this accurate? An endurance of SIX HUNDRED TB?!?! The Samsung Evo 850 only has an endurance rating of 150TB. And this says 600TB? Where did you get this information? Their endurance is NOT listed on their web site. Seems a bit high to me. Feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

455 mbs writes are for the 480. The 240 has 320 mbs writes. It seems like most of the new <400 gb ssds have slower write speeds than the previous generation. Is it because of the new nand shrink from 25nm, 20nm, to 16nm. Everyone says sata is saturated but how is that when 2.5 ssds are only getting 560 read and 320 writes and that's only in sequential. The speeds are getting slower unless you get the pro models.
