2 -> 3 bit cells is a 1.5x capacity bump.

i would not be shocked to find tlc has a >1.5x impact on dwpd.




But it might be easier to find e.g. a 3x sized TLC compared to a 1x size MLC in the FF that GP wants.


For a simple example, the 970 pro (MLC) had a 1200 drive write warrenty, while the 980 pro (TLC) only has a 600 drive write warranty, but the 2TB 980 pro is cheaper than the 1 TB 970 pro so you can get the same endurance for less.
