Reviewers Didn't Like
- Sustained write performance is a problem with most TLC drives and the SP550 just can't shake the TLC blues
- Some of the slowest sustained write speeds we've seen on an SSD
- Shorter warranty than Samsung's SSD 850 EVO, Subpar performance in a few tests
- Very poor scores on AIDA64 sequential writes and IOMeter IOPS measurements, Better performing ADATA drives available for the same price
