3D TLC
Solidigm's datacenter SSD lineup includes models targeting different performance, endurance, and cost tradeoffs. Last year, the company had introduced the D5-P5336 QLC drive as a low-cost high-capacity drive for read-heavy workloads, while also preparing the SLC-based D7-P5810 for extremely write-intensive workloads requiring high endurance.
