2TB Transcend SSD470N - Enquiries - 10-04-2024
Hi - Jim again. I found 2TB Transcend SSD470N 2.5-inch SSD SATA3 3D NAND on NEWEGG. Do you think there are better SSDs for a DS1522+? Thank you.

Great to hear you found the 2TB Transcend SSD470N! It's a solid SSD with 3D NAND and DRAM cache, making it a strong option for the DS1522+. That said, there are a few alternatives worth considering depending on your priorities.
The Samsung 870 EVO is known for its reliability and endurance, with great sustained performance. It's one of the go-to SSDs for NAS users. If you're looking for a NAS-specific drive, the Seagate IronWolf 125 is designed for NAS environments with a good endurance rating for 24/7 use.
If endurance (DWPD) is important for your workload, especially for write-heavy tasks, the Synology SAT5220 series is another option. It’s enterprise-grade and designed to work seamlessly with Synology systems, but might be pricier.
Ultimately, the Transcend SSD470N is a great choice, but if you're prioritizing durability and NAS optimization, one of these alternatives might offer more value in the long run.
Hope this helps!
