Lexar Play SE 4TB SSD Review: The oddball of the bunch

The Lexar Play SE 4TB SSD is a budget-friendly option suitable for PS5 and desktop use as a secondary or games drive. It features a DRAM-less, QLC-infused design with an InnoGrit IG5236 controller and Intel 144-Layer QLC flash memory. The drive offers up to 7,000 / 6,000 MB/s for sequential reads and writes, with a five-year warranty and high endurance levels. The absence of external DRAM leverages HMB for cost savings and potentially reduced power consumption. The unique hardware configuration and flash memory choice make the Lexar Play SE an interesting option for those seeking extra storage capacity at a reasonable price point.

TeamGroup MP44Q 2TB SSD Review: Another Budget Winner

TeamGroup has introduced the MP44Q SSD, a budget-friendly option that offers surprisingly good performance despite using QLC flash.

The MP44Q boasts sequential read and write speeds of up to 7,000/5,900 MB/s and comes with a 5-year warranty. Despite some limitations with sustained write workloads, the MP44Q is a solid choice for those seeking high capacity storage on a budget.
