With the pack-in 1 TB SSD I wonder if there's a catch?

Sata isn't a bad drive. Something from crucial or Samsung would have made this deal better

That said, if you're not intending to use this as a boot drive and mostly just want to toss some games on it, it should be plenty sufficient.
I would pass on this for the above reasons.

The pSLC cache on the other hand is about writing a single bit to a flash cell instead of the 2 or 3 bits it would otherwise store. Writing just a high/low or on/off type value to the cell is obviously easier or quicker than carefully writing to one of 4 or 8 different levels. AFAIK there is no reason a pSLC needs a DRAM cache any more than normal writing needs a DRAM cache. It does mean more access to the FTL. Initially writing more blocks as you are storing less information in each block and then updating it when the garbage collection process automatically migrates the pSLC to TLC blocks when the drive isn't busy to free the cache back up.
It's entirely possible this drive lacks both or that the pSLC benefit is limited by the lack of the DRAM cache but there are plenty of drives that still have effective pSLC while still being DRAMless.

Read negative reviews, the same. https://www.newegg.com/team-group...6820331
P.S. This summer will be new AMD CPUs so older will be price drop.

I got 5950X (I need cores) in Apr 2022 for $495+tax ($800+tax on start) with coupon in MC but now it $350+tax! This summer will be $300+tax?
7000 not really nice, very hot and consumes much more electricity (+50% power but only +20% performance by Gamers Nexus tests), it's practically factory crazy overclocked 5000 series, so I pass.
Will see how AMD fixed problems in 9000. If not - good strategy stay on CPUs of discounted 5000 series, 8 cores optimal (12 cores could be better in some cases), if no need max 16 for full power.
But looks like 5700X3D for casual gaming and other home tasks is optimal by price/performance. Now it $190+tax, if this summer price will drop to $150+tax price - just amazing.
