While it’s clear that going from SLC (single-level cell) to MLC (multi-level cell) to TLC (triple-level cell) NAND, at increasingly small production processes, will negatively affect performance and longevity, the conclusion still turned out to be mostly wrong. SSDs will continue to improve by some metrics (notably density and cost per bit), but everything else about them is poised to get worse. Part of the depressing conclusion was that: It centered around the phenomenon that, as density increases and additional bits are added to each cell in the memory chips, performance, and endurance decreases. Just over 8 years ago I quoted this study, which outlined “The Bleak Future of NAND Flash Memory”. ![]() When using links on our site to make a purchase, we may earn an affiliate commission.
