Silicon Power UD70 PCIe Gen3x4 M.2 2280 1TB SSD Review

Storage/SSD by stefan @ 2021-03-02

The UD70 mainstream SSD from Silicon Power is QLC-based but also uses DRAM caching and a Phison PS5012-E12S-32 controller, succeeding to keep writing speeds over 100MB/s after the SLC pseudo-cache has been fully occupied.
