What NVME for basic 10gbps enclosure (just storage, no gaming)

No many great deals around currently if you need to buy right now, high end at £100 ish is the Kingston Fury, total overkill but all you're going to save is £20 by going for a QLC drive like the WD Green SN350 or Crucial P3.

Don't need to buy now, currently have a 990pro in it...which is a waste in it.
 
Would Crucial T3 be suitable for this? I think I bought this last time but returned it because the 990Pro is "better", but for this purpose, is the T3 suitable since I am bottlenecked by the enclosure.

Or WD Blue SN850?

i have the same requirement, and I have two rule:

1. techpowerup reviews for sustained writes (fill whole drive).

2. be considered to have low-power and good thermal.

anything that can sustain an average of 1.5GB/s for 2TB at storage at <8W is a winner.


Those 2 criteria don't apply to me.

1 - it will never write constantly from o to 100% full to the brim in 1 sitting.
2 - It won't be plugged in 24/7, will likely be sitting in my travel tech pack.

What you are looking for seems to be for desktop use and I question the first point....what is it that you do that need to sustain writing 2TB size files, everyday constantly, then delete and go again, and delete and go again and delete and go again?
