I think cheaper QLC chips use a part of their storage space as SLC, which is fast to write. But once you’ve written the fast part that fits in the SLC cache write throughput quickly tanks as it has to push the data further in to the slower QLC parts.
Yeah I guess it works well for how most people use computers which is not actually for computation...
Modern platter is actually pretty decent and cheap. It's probably still the way to go for large loads unless you have a grove of money trees
