Enterprise drives with PLP (power loss protection) are surprisingly affordable. I would absolutely choose them for workstation / home use.

The new Micron 7400 Pro M.2 960GB is $200, for example.

Sure, the published IOPS figures are nothing to write home about, but drives like these 1) hit their numbers every time, in every condition, and 2) can just skip flushes altogether, making them much faster in uses where data integrity is important (and flushes would otherwise be issued).
