Super Talent uses a new mature 3D TLC NAND FLASH that offers plenty of endurance, performance and durability when aggregated into the multi-TB drives that are most cost-effective. All Super Talent SSD passes through strict quality control protocols.  Some companies have release lower price SSD with a non mature QLC Flash that needs further testing and feedback from consumers. Using a QLC Flash requires that each transition to storing more bits per memory cell come with significant downsides that offset the appeal of higher storage density. The four bits per cell storage mode of QLC requires discriminating between 16 voltage levels in a flash memory cell. The process of reading and writing with adequate precision is unavoidably slower than accessing NAND flash that stores fewer bits per cell. The error rates are higher, so QLC-capable SSD controllers need very robust error correction capabilities. Data retention and write endurance are reduced. QLC will always be the cheaper lower-quality alternative to TLC NAND.
