The most important difference is that this SSD is offered with MLC NAND, which offers sustained performance at much higher speeds versus TLC. The product is offered inside a slim cardboard packaging, which has a photo of the SSD on top, along some of the technical specifications listed; here we will also get to see some of its main features like the quad-core PHISON SSD controller for superior sustained performance, support of real-time capture and playback of uncompressed 4K video but also end-to-end data path protection for the most demanding workloads:
