Intel 545s and Intel DC S3110

GWana — Sun, 10 Mar 2019 07:23:13 GMT

These SSDs seems to have the same characteristics and price. 545s has a controller Silicon Motion SM2259 but which controller is on S3110? Which one is more reliable? What's the difference between 3d2 TLC ( 545s) and 3D nand tlc (s3110)

Thanks for the answer . Do you know which controller is in Intel DC S3110 ? The controller is the brain of a solid state drive. One of them should be better

Yes, you can close this topic. All versions (128,256,512gb) dc 3110s are better than 545s ( by tests from CrystalDiskMark )
