Looking at: https://www.techpowerup.com/ssd-specs/samsung-980-1-tb.d58 it reports (indifferent places on the page): QUOTE Page Size: 16 KB Notes NAND Die: A Dual-plane Die with 2 sub-planes with 8 KiB pages in order to improve performance through paralellism. Endurance: Could be from 1.500 to 3.000 P.E.C. depending on NAND binning END QUOTE That "A Dual-plane Die with 2 sub-planes with 8 KiB pages", for a total of 16 KB, does suggest to me that the new messages have a chance of being correct about there being a tradeoff. (But I'm no expert in the area.) === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
