I checked the specs here: https://www.micron.com/content/dam/micron/global/public/prod...

The interface looks equiv to 4x PCIe 5.0.

    > Sequential read (MB/s): 13,700
    > Sequential write (MB/s): 2,700

That is pretty awful write performance. Does anyone know more about this? I assume all of these hyperdense SSDs suffer from the same drawback. Also, I heard that the E3.L interface can support up to 16x lanes, but there are no practical commerical products at this point.

Extremely dense QLC chips. Still it's 2700-3000MByte, ie ~3GByte/second.

What should worry way more is DWPD which is abysmal... on the first glance. But if you punch it in the calc it still would take ages to wear it out.
