This is normal price, MSRP is meaningless here, not a good deal

But for the same price I want a 1TB SLC drive that writes linearly and stably at a speed of 7Gb/s always. And it has 100k cycles and a data storage time of 25 years at a temperature of 25C and wear up to 10%.

4TB 3D TLC = 1TB SLC. Right? ;)

Why don't disk manufacturers give the buyer the right to choose in which mode to use the disk at the low-level format level in the firmware? This is an obvious conspiracy.

Sorry, typo... 4Тб QLC = 1 Tb SLC... 4Tb TLC = 1.33TB SLC. ;)
