Can someone explain to me the negatives of using a DRAM-less SSD in regard to daily use case scenarios? I really am curious.
Because after reading so many user testimonials, SSDs without DRAM seem to get critical/negative reviews, but almost purely because it cannot consistently perform herculean tasks daily. One review for a 2TB DRAM-less SSD said that the drive was bad because during a 1.6TB transfer test, the drive significantly slowed down towards the end of that 1.6TB transfer. Pausing the transfer and resuming it after a few minutes bounced the transfer speed back up.
Isn't a transfer like that a pretty extreme and/or unrealistic test of the SSD's capabilities? So many reviews were like that - in what use case would you be transferring/writing 1TB+ of data, daily? Is that transfer speed slowdown a reasonable complaint at all for the vast majority of users? If someone was only ever browsing the web, using photoshop, playing pc games, would the lack of DRAM even be noticeable?
