Thank you Benjamin and I have added your points to the article! Perhaps you should consider writing one or two of the next eheheh.

One thing to add though;

> MLC can be anywhere from 5-10,000 cycles with the newest TLC coming in at 3,000 cycles endurance.

Although this was true in the 3xnm flash days (and to some extenet still is), flash today, manufactured at 20nm (or 19nm for samsung/tosh) is usually only rated for 1k/3k p/e (tlc vs mlc). Although one thing is true though; in most cases flash lasts much longer than its rated lifespan (some reports indicate up to 10x longer).

>There are typically 4 or 8 die in a stack and a 64Gb memory chip would be said to have 8 x 8Gb die packages.
There are also packages with 16 die stacks (mostly used in space constrained formats, such as msata — 1TB 840evo is a prime example of 16 stack die use).

Yes…should have clarified the Crucial M5 series…
