Choosing an SSD dependent on Workload?

From your experience, for all these use cases should the SSD model be different?

Architect - dealing with large DGW files

Photoshop - dealing with large PSD files.

General Admin - dealing with Office type files

Database Administrator - dealing with SQL databases.
 
yes...

you can get away with list 1-3 on basically any SSD.
the SQL database tho will require an enterprise class IMO, or an OPTANE for fault tolerance and write endurance (with a grain of salt).
 
Heya,

As Aigomoria mentioned, database work is not a place for any storage medium that doesn't have self-healing and fault tolerance, several layers of it, and backups, in addition to error correcting memory on top of that. A single fault or flipping a bit will cause that data in the database to be useless and defeats the point of the database and then if it's copied, backuped, etc, like that, you just keep the problem. So a consumer SSD is not something I'd put a database on. The rest can go onto a standard consumer SSD no problem assuming one has backups of large projects.

Very best,
